October 8, 201411 yr Kendrick :o Did they support him last era? I think i remember seeing 'Backseat Freestyle' on the playlist, not sure about any others... Not my favourite from him by a long shot but hopefully it means they support him throughout the rest of the era too. Hoping for big things! Yay for 'Stay' and 'Video Girl' :wub:

Yay for 'Stay' and 'Video Girl' :wub: they playlisted Swimming Pools (twice!) and Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe before x
October 8, 201411 yr they playlisted Swimming Pools (twice!) and Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe before x Ah :heehee: I think i do remember that actually. Not sure how i let those slip my mind. They seem to love him then, which is good to see~
October 9, 201411 yr A List Alt-J 'Every Other Freckle' Ariana Grande (ft. Zedd) 'Break Free' Calvin Harris (ft. John Newman) 'Blame' Ella Henderson 'Glow' Fall Out Boy 'Centuries' George Ezra 'Blame It On Me' Labrinth 'Let It Be' Taylor Swift 'Shake It Off' I expect these songs to be removed from the playlist next week.
October 9, 201411 yr I expect these songs to be removed from the playlist next week. They won't remove 8 songs from the A-list in a single week... maybe 4 or 5.
October 9, 201411 yr I wonder what they will do with Shake if Off as its been on the list quite a while and the albums not out until 27/10. Maybe theyll remove it and move onto single 2 quickly in November? Im also surprised she isnt releasing more instant grats or maybe theyll all come in the week before release!
October 9, 201411 yr Yeah, I can see Shake it Off sticking around a bit longer, because it'll likely re-peak this week as it's being performed on two highly rated TV shows on the weekend.
October 9, 201411 yr Fearne just played Cool Kids by Echosmith :w00t: hopefully a future add to the playlist down the line :D
October 9, 201411 yr Surprised they haven't playlisted the new Ed Sheeran given that it is already top 10 on iTunes.
October 9, 201411 yr Surprised they haven't playlisted the new Ed Sheeran given that it is already top 10 on iTunes. We don't even know what its impact date is yet...
October 9, 201411 yr I would imagine it will appear as a mid November releases (prob the week before hes on XF). Then radio 1 will add it that week. Whatever happens it will be played alot between now and the new year pushing X over the million mark!
October 10, 201411 yr How many plays do the songs on the A, B & C list generally have weekly? I might be wrong but I think it's 8/14/21 or something?
October 10, 201411 yr How many plays do the songs on the A, B & C list generally have weekly? A = 25 B = 13 C = 8 INMWT = 5 Although I'd be interested to know how strictly they adhere to that. Edited October 10, 201411 yr by Mango
October 10, 201411 yr A = 25 B = 13 C = 8 INMWT = 5 Although I'd be interested to know how strictly they adhere to that. I watch quite carefully usually and B list songs usually get two plays a day sometimes 3 and sometimes 1. It works out about right. A list songs usually get played on every daytime show but one.
October 10, 201411 yr I watch quite carefully usually and B list songs usually get two plays a day sometimes 3 and sometimes 1. It works out about right. A list songs usually get played on every daytime show but one. Yeah, that does sound about right then. I do find it weird though that in a way the DJs (the daytime ones at least) are pretty much told what to play!
October 10, 201411 yr Yeah those figures are about right but it does vary according to what singles are released that week. So if an Alist song is released that week it can get as many as 28 spins, if a song on the B list is released that week it can get as many as a popular A list track and so on. Also another factor is TOTD status - which can mean a song on the C list which is also TOTD can get as many as 8-10 spins for the week. Hope this helps!
October 10, 201411 yr Yeah, that does sound about right then. I do find it weird though that in a way the DJs (the daytime ones at least) are pretty much told what to play! Well surely that's the point of having a playlist :P
October 10, 201411 yr Well surely that's the point of having a playlist :P Yeah, but you know what I mean :)
