Everyone expected they wouldn't want to play Christmas songs in the post-Christmas chart last year too and they still did! :kink: I assume normal chart on New Year's Eve.

 

 

Yeh they had the stand in presenters doing it over the Christmas break!

New Year’s Eve says normal chart show

Edited November 26, 20214 yr by Everton

either they haven't learnt from last year that the chart will be packed with Christmas songs or they really are keen to play Christmas music well after Christmas Day.

 

but really that makes no sense they do that but don't do chart of the year anymore. looks like me and Joseph will need to do our own version again. :magic:

I suppose for a couple of hours it won't matter if they're playing some Christmas songs a few days later than the big day! I'm glad we're getting a proper chart but it's a shame they haven't found time for a chart of the year as well, surely they could devote a Sunday to revealing a top 100? Oh well. Like Dan said, we'll do our own :cool:

Another dumb BBC decision.

Yeh don’t see the big issue playing Xmas songs on that chart it always baffles me why it’s fine to play them on the 1st November but not on Xmas week itself!

Last something on New Year’s Day

I imagine the Christmas songs will be skipped, there should be enough non-Christmas stuff to fill an hour and 45.

 

Is chart of the year definitely not on New Years Day, schedule doesn't appear to be out there.

There weren't last year and they happily played loads of Christmas songs

Some more updates for New Year's

 

New Year's Eve will continue as the previous week has gone with Radio 1 Anthems until 4pm

The Official Chart will be 4-6pm with guest presenters in for Scott

Radio 1's Party Anthems from 6pm with James Cusack and then Jordan North from 10pm

 

New Year's Day will be Workout Anthems 7am-4pm

Dance Anthems will be on from 4pm-7pm with a guest presenter in for Charlie

1Xtra Takeover as normal, but with guest presenters

 

Jan 2nd will be a normal day with guest/relief presenters

Katie will be on her own for Life Hacks and the First Look Chart

 

Jan 3rd will be a day of Radio 1 Relax as it's a Bank Holiday

Decompression Session from 7am

Jess Iszatt from 10am

Sian Eleri from 2pm

Then it will be the Sound Of 2022 from 6pm with Jack Saunders playing the artists nominated before the night continues as normal

 

Jan 4th the normal schedule resumes, but Arielle and Greg are still off so Sam and Dani will be doing Early Breakfast and Matt Edmondson will be doing Breakfast

Sian Eleri will be doing Future Sounds

So they will have the young DJs doing the chart so will play all the songs like last year.

 

Looking forward to 1st look on 2nd Jan - first normal chart of the year!

Time for the annual look at the Tmost played songs of 2021 for those with interest of what got played and how much they got played. All the information that I have included has come from the BBC Radio 1 Last.fm page which is avaliable online. The infomation takes all tracks played during the daytime period and nighttime periods and as well as songs played on simulcasts of 1Xtra shows and any repeat shows that were broadcast. As always there may be some missing or incorrect data as some plays may have not been recorded due to failures with the scrobles but the data below will give a mostly clear idea as to which tracks was played the most in 2021. Some songs scrobles are combined and don't reflect the original figures on Last.fm but are used to get a more accurate representation of how many times a song is played, I have listed where I combined figures and these combined figures include versions of a song that went down as a seperate track that wasn't supposed to, variations of song that are similar and any live performances that were played out of a song. Combined figures don't include dance remixes unless they were used as an official version that was pushed. Also inlcuded is the most played songs for each month, the most played artists of 2021 and them by month.

Dominated by dance music!

 

Surprised Ewan is number one as it wasn’t charting until November but guess it’s been in dance shows all year perhaps?

Crazy that Ewan is number one when it was released so late in the year!

 

An interesting list, thanks for posting.

Tell Me Something Good was released in June. The edited version was released later. It definitely had massive backing from dance shows for weeks and weeks before its playlisting

Annie Mac (and all of the dance DJs) played it loads, then it was put the on the playlist for 13 weeks and is still played pretty regularly now.

Oh wow Ewan *.*
