Tara Flynn isn't the quiet type.
The Irish actress may have made her name primarily in acting and voiceover work -- you may know her from her work on stage (she'll be back on the Abbey's Peacock stage in 2018 with her own show, Not a Funny Word), or -- rather more surreally -- as the voice of Molly Morbeg in the long-running 1990s RTE kids' drama The Morbegs.
But Tara has also become known in recent years for her campaigning nature; she has campaigned on issues of equality, bodily autonomy and women's rights for many years now, all topics which have sometimes made her a target on social media.
On Songs in the Key of Life, though, Tara took time out just to chat primarily about the music that has inspired her and made her happy. Listen back to her podcast by clicking the play button and have a look at her excellent song list below.
