Check out this week's new playlist, from Jim Benson

Music is the answer or so it has been said… and I can usually judge my mood and mental health with music by how enthusiastic I am about it at the time.

Music helps me through good times and bad, it’s there when I’m sociable and there when I’m not, it accompanies me on long drives, slow runs, dinner parties (I guess I’m that age now), and even helps me when I clean the house.

It’s a mood enhancer, a moment to reflect, a welcome distraction, or simply nothing more than a good time.

Each week we share one of our Hummingbird's playlists. A collection of 12 songs (a nod of respect to the 12 male lives lost on average every day in the UK) that mean something personal to them, songs that may well have been the inspiration that helped them through a tough time.
