April 6, 201510 yr Amazed how many there were that didn't get played (obviously they didn't have time for them all). However, I believe there were at least 5 that should not have been played (due to the artists having other top 20 hits).
April 6, 201510 yr I was fully expecting MAGIC! - Rude to get a play actually, despite it being very recent. Some more snubs I thought of in the car journey that haven't already been mentioned • Wankelmut & Emma Louise - My Head Is A Jungle (MK Remix) • MK - Always (Route 94 Remix) (feat. Alana) • Cabin Crew - Star To Fall • Frankee - F.U.R.B (f*** You Right Back) • Paul Johnson - Get Get Down • Bakermat - One Day (Vandaag) • Yasmin - Finish Line was really hoping Gramophonedzie would get a play too :( "Get Get Down" was snubbed because it's from 1999
April 7, 201510 yr That #68 smash! Mess I was looking at the wrong chart, but Until You Were Gone, on which she featured, also reached #3
April 7, 201510 yr Was Nina Sky - Move Ya Body played? *.* Indeed it was, don't worry. This was also snubbed :( MKOT6teSarY
April 7, 201510 yr The ones I wanted to hear were Meridian Dan - German Whip All About She - Higher (Free) Indiana - Solo Dancing Kendrick Lamar - i Kid Cudi - Day N Nite Edit: and Ray Foxx - Boom Boom (Heartbeat) Edited April 7, 201510 yr by RobinJuanPersie
April 7, 201510 yr Maybe they were just creeped out by the thought of R Kelly having keys to people's hotel rooms. I certainly am.
April 7, 201510 yr A part of me does feel it was appealing to the "cool kids" which is what Radio 1 does hence why I don't listen to it, and the novelty factor with some of the dross like Obie Trice. The Eurovision songs snubbed was not on. Plus some of the choices on here, are rather good too.
April 7, 201510 yr I thought 'I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker' would be played even though I'm glad they didn't as 'What If I'm Right' should have swapped places with it chart wise. I know that wouldn't have got played if that ever happened regardless. Edited April 7, 201510 yr by Rob.S

They did play Agnes 'Release Me' though to be fair which as Scott Mills said may as well have been a eurovision entry (I wish he'd have played Euphoria though)
April 7, 201510 yr A lot of the records played raised one of two questions. Some of them will have made people think "How was this ever a hit?". That applies to a lot of the novelty songs, ranging from the completely bizarre to the slightly less weird Nizlopi. Others will have prompted the question "How did this act only get one top twenty hit?" For Eurovision songs, the answer to each of the questions is obvious. That may be why they were not included.

April 8, 201510 yr These were on the playlist but weren't played (just using the first post of the other thread): Alyssa Reid - Alone Again Juliet Roberts - Needing U (I Needed U) Delirium feat. Sarah McLaghlan - Silence DVBBS & Borgeous feat. Tinie Tempah - Tsunami (Jump) Ferry Corsten - Rock Your Body Rock Gramophonedzie - Why Don't You Melissa Steel - Kisses for Breakfast Parra For Cuva feat. Ana Nacklab - Wicked Games Supermode - Tell Me Why The Raconteurs - Steady As She Goes Still sad for that last two :( Parra For Cuva did get a play just before they started the countdown
April 8, 201510 yr The most obvious omission is surely 'Dragostea Din Tei'. Assuming The Rasmus got played, which I assume they must have done?

April 8, 201510 yr The Rasmus weren't "snubbed" as such, they did have another hit "Guilty" which reached #15
