BuzzJack Music Forum _ UK Charts _ One Hit Wonders Of The Millenium - The Snubs

Posted by: Cody Slayberry Apr 6 2015, 06:05 PM

What songs were one-hit wonders that you think should have been played during the actual Radio 1 show? Pretty sure there were a lot of other deserving songs on the playlist.

Daisy slays you obviously


Also:
Ready or not
Alone again
What if

Will think of more later smile.gif

Pumped Up Kicks is an odd omission. Big hit and literally their only charting song.

At least they spared us the dud X Factor winners, Sam Bailey, Leon Jackson, Steve Brookstein laugh.gif

'Pumped Up Kicks' should've got a play too sad.gif

and obviously 'Let It Go' should be an ESSENTIAL for this <3

Leon Jackson had 2 top 3 hits!

These were on the playlist but weren't played (just using the first post of the other thread):

Alyssa Reid - Alone Again
Juliet Roberts - Needing U (I Needed U)
Delirium feat. Sarah McLaghlan - Silence
DVBBS & Borgeous feat. Tinie Tempah - Tsunami (Jump)
Ferry Corsten - Rock Your Body Rock
Gramophonedzie - Why Don't You
Melissa Steel - Kisses for Breakfast
Parra For Cuva feat. Ana Nacklab - Wicked Games
Supermode - Tell Me Why
The Raconteurs - Steady As She Goes

Still sad for that last two sad.gif

Poor Esmee, can't even get a break on this list either.


Posted by: The Hit Parade Apr 6 2015, 06:24 PM

Blimey, has Ferry Corsten really only ever had one Top 20 hit?
I suppose if I didn't think of that neither would people at R1.

I was fully expecting MAGIC! - Rude to get a play actually, despite it being very recent.

Some more snubs I thought of in the car journey that haven't already been mentioned

• Wankelmut & Emma Louise - My Head Is A Jungle (MK Remix)
• MK - Always (Route 94 Remix) (feat. Alana)
• Cabin Crew - Star To Fall
• Frankee - F.U.R.B (f*** You Right Back)
• Paul Johnson - Get Get Down
• Bakermat - One Day (Vandaag)
• Yasmin - Finish Line

was really hoping Gramophonedzie would get a play too sad.gif

Under his own name, yes. However he had two hits as System F ('Out of the Blue', #14 and 'Cry', #19) and a hit in collaboration with Tiesto as Gouryella ('Gouryella', #15). I would also mention Veracocha but it seems that 'Carte Blanche' sadly missed the top 20

Posted by: Davidson Apr 6 2015, 06:55 PM

This wasn't played was it? Surprised as it was far bigger than a lot of the songs on the list. Still a fab tune.



Also I know that some members have done very well to say the least, but as a group, they only had this hit.

Loreen - "Euphoria" even The Common Linnets and Conchita should have been played too.

Narcotic Thrust - "I Like It" - that song is so sexual, and it deserved a play.

A blanket Eurovision snub! drama.gif

So many classics missed considering some of the forgettable flops that were aired.

With the one hit wonder (or is it oneder tongue.gif) would I Dream (Featuring Frankie and Calvin) count as they were technically just S Club Juniors/8 under a different name. As Dreaming was a number 19 hit in 2004

Amazed how many there were that didn't get played (obviously they didn't have time for them all). However, I believe there were at least 5 that should not have been played (due to the artists having other top 20 hits).

Was Nina Sky - Move Ya Body played? *.*

I was fully expecting MAGIC! - Rude to get a play actually, despite it being very recent.

Some more snubs I thought of in the car journey that haven't already been mentioned

• Wankelmut & Emma Louise - My Head Is A Jungle (MK Remix)
• MK - Always (Route 94 Remix) (feat. Alana)
• Cabin Crew - Star To Fall
• Frankee - F.U.R.B (f*** You Right Back)
• Paul Johnson - Get Get Down
• Bakermat - One Day (Vandaag)
• Yasmin - Finish Line

was really hoping Gramophonedzie would get a play too sad.gif


"Get Get Down" was snubbed because it's from 1999

Mess I was looking at the wrong chart, but Until You Were Gone, on which she featured, also reached #3

Indeed it was, don't worry.

This was also snubbed sad.gif


Posted by: RobinJuanPersie Apr 7 2015, 02:16 PM

The ones I wanted to hear were
Meridian Dan - German Whip
All About She - Higher (Free)
Indiana - Solo Dancing
Kendrick Lamar - i
Kid Cudi - Day N Nite

Edit: and
Ray Foxx - Boom Boom (Heartbeat)

Maybe they were just creeped out by the thought of R Kelly having keys to people's hotel rooms. I certainly am.

Posted by: Cody Slayberry Apr 7 2015, 07:33 PM

Wow I actually thought Kendrick had two hits...

Posted by: Rob.S Apr 7 2015, 07:55 PM

EDIT Wrong thread LMAO.

A part of me does feel it was appealing to the "cool kids" which is what Radio 1 does hence why I don't listen to it, and the novelty factor with some of the dross like Obie Trice.

The Eurovision songs snubbed was not on. Plus some of the choices on here, are rather good too.

Posted by: Rob.S Apr 7 2015, 08:30 PM

I thought 'I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker' would be played even though I'm glad they didn't as 'What If I'm Right' should have swapped places with it chart wise. I know that wouldn't have got played if that ever happened regardless.

They did play Agnes 'Release Me' though to be fair which as Scott Mills said may as well have been a eurovision entry

(I wish he'd have played Euphoria though)

A lot of the records played raised one of two questions. Some of them will have made people think "How was this ever a hit?". That applies to a lot of the novelty songs, ranging from the completely bizarre to the slightly less weird Nizlopi. Others will have prompted the question "How did this act only get one top twenty hit?" For Eurovision songs, the answer to each of the questions is obvious. That may be why they were not included.

Speaking of "cool kids", surprised that was snubbed too.

These were on the playlist but weren't played (just using the first post of the other thread):

Alyssa Reid - Alone Again
Juliet Roberts - Needing U (I Needed U)
Delirium feat. Sarah McLaghlan - Silence
DVBBS & Borgeous feat. Tinie Tempah - Tsunami (Jump)
Ferry Corsten - Rock Your Body Rock
Gramophonedzie - Why Don't You
Melissa Steel - Kisses for Breakfast
Parra For Cuva feat. Ana Nacklab - Wicked Games
Supermode - Tell Me Why
The Raconteurs - Steady As She Goes

Still sad for that last two sad.gif


Parra For Cuva did get a play just before they started the countdown

The most obvious omission is surely 'Dragostea Din Tei'.

Assuming The Rasmus got played, which I assume they must have done?

Nope, The Rasmus were snubbed too sad.gif

Posted by: ► ▲ N Apr 8 2015, 07:00 AM

The Rasmus weren't "snubbed" as such, they did have another hit "Guilty" which reached #15

ATC - Around The World (La La La)

Posted by: Regina Apr 8 2015, 10:52 AM

They didn't play this MASTERPIECE?! WTF?


How dare they sleep.gif

Posted by: Riser Apr 8 2015, 02:05 PM

Just realized they "snubbed" Michael Gray despite using 'The Weekend' in the advert laugh.gif They were right to not include him, of course.

They probably saw my tweet then re-did their research on him

(my impact!!!11)

Of course, they obviously didn't do their Kosheen research, how even did they let that slide though when they had FOUR top 20s?!?

Maybe they think it's a bit early to write that off as a one-hit-wonder. Have they even tried to release a follow-up yet?

Posted by: Colin Apr 8 2015, 10:53 PM

They missed so many amazing songs! I can't believe the result. They did play many good songs, but I can't help but feel that they could have made the selection a lot tighter than what was the actual result.

I don't suppose has the 'snubbed' selection also as a playlist on Spotify? 🙊

Posted by: Doctor Blind Apr 12 2015, 12:19 AM

They should have played this really:
