Still no A*M*E :(

She did have a #1 didn't she? I wasn't dreaming?

If she'd released a much stronger single in order to capitalise on the momentum from the brilliant Need U (100%), then she probably would be on there

 

She was only the featured vocalist on Need U, it's not like it was "an A*M*E song". Heartless is her first proper single, so you can't automatically assume they'll playlist it just because a song she was featured on got to No. 1. But I do agree, if Heartless was a better song they would have playlisted it! Hopefully she'll get to follow it up with something better.
Do Radio 1 ever playlist these artists based on the song? I'm pretty sure her record label just didn't pay them enough to playlist it.

 

I'm not sure, but I think that's illegal in the UK (it's legal in some other countries for labels to do that though).

Artists have to be on a major label I think to get playlisted daytime but its nothing overtly to do with money. Like certain artists start out on smaller labels and can get onto the INMWT list but once they get onto a major they get alisted on the radio!!
It's quite a decent little tune actually!

 

 

Yeah their 2nd album was great IMO and alot of the 'different' tracks on it didnt get released. After shave ocean is like a classic Beatles track!

Adele is on an indie label.
