The amount of hate online for the likes of Gerry Cinnamon, Sam Fender etc., being on the charts rolleyes.gif That’s why I hate the ‘indie’ scene - full of elitists who think you should only listen to certain acts for the rest of your life and god forbid anyone new comes along.

That's what I generally dislike about Radio X tbh.

Absolute Radio 20's is the best station for modern indie right now! - https://planetradio.co.uk/absolute-radio-20s/playlist/

OP updated.
Sam Fender surprisingly gets as high as #10 to be the highest new song and Queen remain #1 with BoRap.

Great to see Sam so high - I know Radio X hammer his music but obviously the public like it too as they have voted.
