Actor, singer and producer Rita Wilson chooses another two songs for Tracks Of My Years with Ken.

As an actor she's appeared in a multitude of films including 'Sleepless in Seattle' and 'Runaway Bride', as well as guest starring in 'Frasier', 'Curb Your Enthusiasm', and having recurring roles on 'The Good Wife' and 'Girls'.

With her producer hat on, Rita's been involved in 'Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again', 'Mighty Aphrodite' and 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding' (AND its spin off TV show).

In 2012 her passion for music saw her release her debut album called 'AM/FM', and she's gone on to release three more studio albums and a series of three inter-connected EPs. Entitled 'Trilogy', the EPs include the single 'Everybody Cries' from the film 'The Outpost', which won the Hollywood Music in Media Award for Outstanding Song for Independent Film.

Rita received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2019, and for over 20 years Rita and her husband Tom Hanks have been honorary co-chairs of the Women's Cancer Research Fund (WCRF).

Rita鈥檚 new album - 'Rita Wilson Now & Forever : Duets' - is her fifth studio album, and features duets with the likes of Willie Nelson, Elvis Costello and Smokey Robinson.

Rita's penultimate choices come from Paul Simon and Bruce Springsteen.

Plus Ken's got another round of the legendary PopMaster music quiz and your dedications with today's love song. There's also the brand new record and album of the week. If you want to contact the show, just email ken.bruce@bbc.co.uk.
