Greg James hailed radio’s power to bring people together in difficult times as he kicked off the BBC’s Great British Singalong.

The special initiative saw BBC Radio 1, Radio 2, 6Music, 1Xtra and Asian Network listeners pick five singalong tracks to lift the nation’s spirits during the coronavirus crisis.

On Thursday morning, Radio 1 Breakfast host James kicked things off by praising radio’s ability to unite people before introducing his listeners’ choice.
