Today at 2pm there’s a chart of the 40 most played tracks from 2010-2019 on Radio 2 hosted by Scott Mills. Compiled by PPL, this chart focuses on plays across radio, TV, cinemas, clubs, pubs, gyms, restaurants etc.
This chart was last compiled 10 years ago with Snow Patrol’s Chasing Cars coming out on top. Could it appear again? I’ll reveal the Top 40 in turn with a post of the song, its video and where it peaked in the actual singles chart. Feel free to listen along and join in with your thoughts and comments from 2-5pm  What do you think will be #1 this time around? (If anyone has access to or has seen the chart already then no spoilers please as it is already out there) |

Intrigued to see how similar it looks to the sales/streaming EOD.
I'm gonna take a guess that Happy will be #1 but I don't pay close attention to the airplay chart so I could be well off. Starts at 2pm by the way. |

I’m going to guess Uptown Funk, however I might be way off. Maybe an Adele song, Rolling in the Deep or Someone Like You?

It's definitely Chasing Cars. Last July it was revealed as the most played song of the century, nearly a decade after being named the most played of the 2000s.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-49008689 That either means: 1. It was played so much between 2006 and 2009 that even all the 2010s hits couldn't catch up or 2. It continued to played so often post-2009 that it outperformed all the other songs This post has been edited by JCM20: Apr 13 2020, 02:58 PM |

surely most of Chasing Cars radio plays would’ve been pre 2010? can’t see that being in this chart myself.

Nearly time folks! This'll get going after the news. Those who don't frequent listening to Radio 2, there'll be a news bulletin on the hour (if they have decided to keep them in).

I'd guess Happy, but Ed Sheeran should feature a lot near the top and also Rather Be.
Hold My Hand just scraped into the EOD Top 100 but it wouldn't surprise me if it were top 40 here. |

Torn at #40 for 2010-2019? Really? Is this just from Scott's personal last.fm or?

Human is sounding pretty good having not heard it for a couple of years.

Surely Shape Of You will be really high on this list? And obviously a couple more Ed Sheeran tracks.
