October 21, 201510 yr I did actually wonder whether Sia would be re-added but then I decided it didn't make sense given that the song's already out. It would have made more sense if the song was pushed back before it was released, a bit like when David Zowie was re-added. Would love for Sia to be back on the playlist though! Is that release 100% confirmed then? I read in a different thread tonight that it was out on the 30th :unsure: Yes, but sometimes it has to do with when promo is kicking in in the UK, and say for example Sia has booked a live lounge for Jan/Feb with other UK promo, they'd want to playlist to line up with those dates.
October 22, 201510 yr I did wonder why Sia was thrown off so soon before the video has even been released, I can't see them re-adding it somehow but it'd be amazing if they could.
October 22, 201510 yr I'm confused, Nick said on his breakfast show that Adele was on next Friday did he not? He said after saying about a guest that was on this week, "and then next week on Tuesday we have Justin Bieber and then on Friday is Adele", unless he just worded it very badly. ATRL are under the impression Nick was referring to the 30th anyway and it that is the case then Adele wouldn't be on the playlist for next week. That said, a release this Friday would've made more sense to me considering the advert that's been on TV and the fact Fleur has moved her release date to potentially avoid Adele, but I'm not sure it is this Friday. Listen for yourselves at 1hr 17 minutes in on this video and see what you think Nick means!
October 22, 201510 yr It does seem like it's next Friday. Though Nick was bigging up a huge guest for THIS Friday, Fluer moved her release date and theirs a gap in the Radio 1 playlist, so tomorrow would have made more sense to me.
October 22, 201510 yr OK so Greg has just confirmed it, Adele's new single is called 'Hello' and is out tomorrow! So I guess you were right Joe, that's what the blank space on the playlist is reserved for, and it would seem to indicate that it's going to, shock horror, go straight to A-list :o Edited October 22, 201510 yr by M4NGO
October 27, 201510 yr Yeah I just looked at the website and she's officially gone straight to the a-list :cheer:
October 27, 201510 yr First song straight to A-list for nearly 4 years and of course it had to be Adele :)
October 27, 201510 yr First song straight to A-list for nearly 4 years and of course it had to be Adele :) The first artist to sold so much, stream too much and play too much. QUEEN :)
October 27, 201510 yr Haha, I just checked then and I also saw Now Playing: Hello by Adele. It's already inescapable.
