You'll hear the English rock band Faces on Eric Holland's House of Wax just after 8 tonight. And we hope you're ready for your close-up, because this morning we're focusing on faces for the Question of the Day. Whether they're smiling or beautiful or deceptive, faces feature prominently in song. Share a favorite and we'll make up a set.

Hear your requests weekdays after 9 a.m.
Today's set:

  • Roberta Flack "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face"
  • James Taylor "Your Smiling Face"
  • Courtney Barnett "Nameless, Faceless"
