The Pop Corporation

That’s it – we’ve basically completed 2025, so save a few surprise drops, all we have to do now is dig into Christmas music and familiar party songs on the work’s do and down the local. It’s good stuff, whether you celebrate god or not.

You’ve read the round-up of songs, now it is time to go a little deeper with the FREE RANGE radio show – the ‘Best Of 2025’ edition. Some bits were in the text version of this, but there’s a lot of noteworthy songs on the show that didn’t make the cut.

Set-up an account on Mixcloud so you get a notification every time we upload a show. It’s free. We’re not planning on charging you money for anything, just like this website. Us doing it for nothing means we’re beholden to no-one, so you at least know the things we say are words of our own, rather than some horrible sponsor.

For those who don’t have the time for a radio show (you could stop listening to those doom-laden podcasts once in a while, y’know?), we’ve included the even bigger deep dive Spotify playlist below that.

If you’re wishing there was another way of listening, frankly, you’re spoiled and need to bend slightly and pick either the article, the radio show, or the Spotify playlist. Stop being a baby.

Nearly 2026! How mad is that?
