Rod Stewart has teamed up with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. You're in my Heart features orchestral reimaginings of some of Rod's hugest hits, including Maggie May, Sailing, and I Don't Want to Talk About it/The First Cut is the Deepest. Sadly, D'Ya Think I'm Sexy is overlooked.

material. One of the most long-awaited movie sequels ever, Frozen 2 is set to be a box office smash. The 2013 original spawned the massive hit Let it Go. Will Frozen 2 lead to a Christmas Number One album?

Children in Need has a habit of producing chart hits - most notably with the all-star cover of Perfect Day, which hit Number 1 in 1997. Got it Covered features unlikely stars covering unexpected classics: Olivia Colman reimagines Portishead's Glory Box. David Tenanant covers the Proclaimers' Sunshine On Leith, while Jodie Whittaker tackles Coldplay's Yellow."
