People are gonna go mad about Freemasons... now.

Posted by: Jamieed 17th June 2009, 05:33 PM

^ lol yep

Posted by: TheoG101™ 17th June 2009, 05:34 PM

I can't believe Dizzee is out before BEP and Jordin is out too earlier

Posted by: Jack 17th June 2009, 05:35 PM

They just got rid of Jordin Sparks? Why?! It's only just beginning to take off here ...

Posted by: andyboiuk 17th June 2009, 05:36 PM

OMG They playlisted SEB!!! Amazing! Did not expect that.

Shoulda been a-list weeks ago.

Posted by: Colin 17th June 2009, 05:36 PM

Jordin Sparks out already and Freemasons finally in?

Radio 1 are an absolute joke.

Posted by: Rob 17th June 2009, 05:38 PM

Erm... Jordin isn't out, just moved down the the B-list for some odd reason. Glad to see Radio 1 realising their mistake and playlisting Freemasons. Just a shame it wasn't a few weeks sooner.

Posted by: Cremey 17th June 2009, 05:38 PM

Mpho!




Other than that though, $h!t week for new additions - Metro Station and Frankmusik?

Posted by: TheoG101™ 17th June 2009, 05:41 PM

WTF! Take That should be out as much as I love the song, because GA were out on release week. Anyway edited Jordin

Posted by: Jack 17th June 2009, 05:46 PM

I'm also suprised to not see PCD added on Radio 1! Especially considering how well it's doing so far ...

Posted by: ScottyEm 17th June 2009, 05:47 PM

EGG. ON. YOUR. FACE!

Posted by: Bert for Lashes 17th June 2009, 05:48 PM

Freephie, Frankmusic, MPHO ... BRILLANT week !

Posted by: Silver Rocket 17th June 2009, 05:56 PM

I'm glad they finally saw sense about Freemasons/Sophie. It's rare though, usually the cut off point is like 3 weeks before a release except in rare and special cases.

Surprised to see Frankmusik playlisted, I swore they were intent on ignoring him.

Posted by: Buzzing Jackal 17th June 2009, 05:57 PM

I think PCD will be added next week probably... weirdly late but then there doesn't seem to be any kind of logic to Radio 1's playlist I'm not quite sure why Radio 2 have playlisted 'Every Step' by Bev either given that it's not her lead single.

Posted by: B-rye 17th June 2009, 06:00 PM

Surprised GaGa and JLS aren't A-Listed yet.

Posted by: TheoG101™ 17th June 2009, 06:01 PM

Same, but I think they'll probably clear a few of the A-List next week (Take That, Veronicas, Black Eyed Peas...)

Posted by: Buzzing Jackal 17th June 2009, 06:04 PM

I think it's likely that she was never A-list and they accidentally put her in the wrong section when they updated the website last week...

Good to see Freemasons added. Still no VV though or is all hope now lost.

Rather strange that Radio 2 have added Beverley Knight though

Posted by: Bibliotheque 17th June 2009, 06:14 PM

OMGGGGGGGGGGGG

Posted by: B-rye 17th June 2009, 06:17 PM

I don't get the massive love for Mpho.
It is only average IMO. Very bad killage of the sample.

Posted by: anxresi 17th June 2009, 08:14 PM

I wish you'd get rid of that ugly bloke in your signature. He puts me off reading every thread you post in. Who the heck is he anyway??

Posted by: RobDeMusicMan 17th June 2009, 08:18 PM

Haha thats hilarious

Posted by: TheoG101™ 17th June 2009, 08:21 PM

As I've already asked; it's Bill Withers, he knows

Posted by: anxresi 17th June 2009, 08:33 PM

Ah, the sunshine guy back in the top 40 after a long hiatus thanks to BGT. I thought he was one of those freaks who had a bit part in the 60's Star Trek TV series. What is the 'he knows' thang all about though?

Who would to stare at his ugly mug, anyway. Replace his disgusting visage with someone less grotesque, like Margaret Thatcher. Or Heather Trott from Eastenders. Actually, scratch that last one..

Posted by: B-rye 17th June 2009, 08:42 PM

It is indeed Bill Withers.
Don't worry, I'll go change it in a min.
And the 'he knows' thing - listne to Ain't No Sunghine and you'll find out.

Thanks for doing this, I was busy getting cut open

Posted by: Cremey 18th June 2009, 11:23 AM

^^ Are you ok?

Posted by: Xylem 18th June 2009, 11:49 AM

Better than yesterday, but still super sore. I'm in recovery, which will be a bit of a pain for at least a week.

Posted by: B-rye 18th June 2009, 08:11 PM

Update: I've heard Raindrops by Basement Jaxx now.
It is actually amazing.
