March 12, 201412 yr http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/artic...ngle-Nasty.html The last line: "Nasty, which hasn’t been playlisted by BBC Radio 1, is out now." Someone from Dailymail is a bit angry :P
March 12, 201412 yr Yay for Martin Garrix reaching the A-List. :cheer: Pleasing additions this week for Jakwob, John Newman, and Sigma. :D Also pleased to see Klaxons up to B list, I want this to be huge! How predictable of them to playlist The Vamps and hopefully after it flops on its a**e on Sunday maybe 1D will be removed ( I can only hope!!)
March 12, 201412 yr INMWT List * Circa Waves - Stuck In My Teeth OMGOMGOMGOMG a GUITAR BAND have been playlisted on Radio 1. Guitars are TOTES AMAZEBALLS again! [/sarcasm]
March 12, 201412 yr Radio 1 Playlist Additions 20 Years Ago (21/03/1994): A-List James - Say Something Take That - Everything Changes Madonna - I'll Remember B-List Toni Braxton - Another Sad Love Song Haddaway - Rock My Heart C-List Bitty McLean - Dedicated To The One I Love Counting Crows - Mr. Jones Urban Species - Brother Paul Weller - Hung Up Ice- T - Gotta Lotta Love
March 12, 201412 yr As angry I am about The Saturdays snub, I'm very glad Angel Haze has another week on the B list because she's started to climb the top 100 :)
March 12, 201412 yr Author i don't see why people are fretting over The Saturdays, they'll probably be added next week anyway. (not that they really even 'need' the support tbh, they can get a top 10/15 hit from their fanbase alone, imo i'd rather see lesser-known artists like Josh Record getting the support instead)
March 13, 201412 yr http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLWnadT_fh8 I wonder if this is the club mix for the new John Newman single
March 13, 201412 yr I think it's more that 'Dark Horse' is 2 weeks AHEAD of everything - Radio 1's support of it has been more or less in line with their usual according to the track's impact date I think? Which simply symbolises how 'impact dates' are a farce and used by radio 1 as an excuse to play or not to play a track which is clearly popular with the public - eg 'Coldplay Magic'. It goes back to radio refusing to support OA/OS but im sure enough has been said about this issue by myself. Best shock of the playlist - Josh Record getting added/David Guetta stalling for a 3rd week in a row Worst Shock - Magic remaining in the c list <_< Edited March 13, 201412 yr by steve201
March 13, 201412 yr ?! No, it symbolises how impact dates are used by record labels as a guide to tell radio stations when to play the songs...
March 13, 201412 yr That impact dates are a joke and radio should so more flexibility with their playlists!

March 13, 201412 yr That impact dates are a joke and radio should so more flexibility with their playlists! How would they know WHEN to playlist a certain song? Most songs only start climbing when their RADIO AIRPLAY increases. Dark Horse is an exception to the rule.
March 13, 201412 yr How would they know WHEN to playlist a certain song? Most songs only start climbing when their RADIO AIRPLAY increases. Dark Horse is an exception to the rule. Chart runs like Dark Horse happen a lot if 1) it's a popular artist 2) the video is released before radio plays begin 3) if the song is actually good/popular 4) if there's any other early promo and the song takes off Basically if radio was more flexible by adding songs further up the playlist which it has only done on very few occassions (sometimes it feels like a forced higher addition) it would help songs more and stop situations like Dark Horse getting its highest amount of rotation on a impact week which is long irrelevant chart wise. Radio inflexibility stopped OA/OS from having any chance to take root in the uk charts meaning we all have to wait weeks upon weeks to buy a single available everywhere else in the world sometimes. It's a ridiculous situation in 2014 and we are seeing the effect with single sales declines which have only just begun!
