Comedian and TV presenter Mo Gilligan has taken fans on a musical journey through his personal playlist. The comedian, known for his witty humor, revealed that he buys his first single from HMV in Lewisham Shopping Centre, where he spent hours playing 'Rollout (My Business)' by Ludacris.
Mo's musical tastes were heavily influenced by his upbringing, growing up to a lot of reggae music and hearing Bob Marley's 'Get Up, Stand Up' at home. He also confessed that he has a weakness for karaoke songs like Robbie Williams' 'Angels' and Oasis' 'Wonderwall', which are sure to get a crowd singing along.
Mo also revealed that he knows every lyric to Shaggy's 'Boombastic', which he heard as a child in a Plasticine advert. However, there is one song that he can no longer listen to - Neil Diamond's 'Sweet Caroline' - as it became a nostalgic annoyance during the 2016 Euros.
When it comes to party playlists, Mo sticks with tried and tested tracks like Giggs' 'Talkin da Hardest' and Gala's 'Freed from Desire'. But despite his tough exterior, Mo has confessed that he secretly loves the Spice Girls' 'Wannabe', an underrated banger in his eyes.
Mo's playlist also includes some life-changing tracks. He revealed that listening to Drake and Yebba's 'Heartbreak by Drake and Yebba' on a plane had a profound effect on him, making him feel like he was "bouncing on the clouds". Another soothing track for Mo is Jamiroquai's 'Cosmic Girl', which gets him energized in the morning.
Lastly, when it comes to more emotional songs, Mo finds solace in Cleo Sol's 'Know That You Are Loved'. As for his eulogy song, Mo has a clear choice - either Party Up (Up in Here) by DMX or Stay Another Day by East 17.

I love how down-to-earth he is about his musical tastes, you know? Not one of those guys who tries to be cool just because they're a comedian 
. It's great that he's still connected to his childhood faves like 'Get Up, Stand Up' and 'Boombastic'. And I'm living for his karaoke obsession - 'Angels' is always going to get me singing along at the pub! 
I think its wild that people always assume comedians are just loud and obnoxious on stage, but Mo's playlist is actually super chill 
. It shows he has a more emotional side, too - I love how he loves the Spice Girls' 'Wannabe', it's such an underrated banger! 
And its cool that he finds solace in Cleo Sol's 'Know That You Are Loved', music can be so therapeutic, you know? 
But what's interesting is how his tastes have changed over time - from reggae to Drake, wow, the man has diverse taste buds 
. Anyway, I'm glad we got a glimpse into Mo's musical world 
Mo's playlist is like his personality - he balances tough party vibes with some super emotional life-changing tracks, just like how we all have our own mix of humor and heart in real life. His love for karaoke songs is so relatable too! I'm loving the Spice Girls' 'Wannabe' vibe at the end 
I also need to check out that Cleo Sol song - it sounds super uplifting! 
That song never fails to get me moving too! But what really gets me is that he has a 'life-changing' track - can you imagine hearing something on a plane and just feeling this euphoric vibe? 
I think it's so cool how Mo shares his personal playlist with us. His love for karaoke songs is relatable, who hasn't had those epic moments singing along to "Wonderwall" or belting out "Angels"? 
On a more emotional note, it's lovely to see how music can evoke strong feelings. Cleo Sol's song is beautiful and I'm not surprised Mo finds solace in it. 
! DMX's 'Party Up (Up in Here)' is the ultimate banger 
like who knew the tough guy had a soft spot for girl power? i swear, his playlist sounds like a total mixtape from the early 2000s, but in a good way! 
and omg "bouncing on the clouds" after listening to drake's heartbreak song is literally the most relatable thing ever 
u guys are so extra with the playlist thing! like why does it have to be so serious all the time? i mean Mo's got his fun tunes like Spice Girls and Oasis, but let's not forget about the REAL party starter - 'The Safety Dance' by Men Without Hats 
those are the kinda tracks that get the crowd moving without having to try too hard!
... and omg, party up by dmxx is such an intense eulogy song 
I think its pretty lame that people are sharing their personal playlists like this. I mean what's the point of revealing all your favorite songs to the world? It feels so... basic 
. Can't they just keep it to themselves? And why do we need to know about someone's childhood memories and nostalgic annoyances? It's all so relatable but also kinda boring 
.
. Can we go back to buying physical copies of music or something?
And I gotta say, it's cute how he's still got a soft spot for "Wannabe"
