January 15, 20215 yr Author Well that's not the most exciting update ever, is it? I was definitely expecting them to add Harry Styles this week. They also could have added Kings of Leon, Tiesto, London Grammar, Tom Grennan, Celeste... Also thought they would have A-listed 'Coco' and 'No Time For Tears', there's a few songs on the A-list which feel like they've outstayed their welcome. Hopefully 'Lucid' and 'Rapture' will climb to the B-list next week. Only 11 songs on the C-list this week but there's a couple of errors on the website so I'm wondering whether there's a new addition they've forgotten to type up...
January 15, 20215 yr Pleased to see Lana, Olivia, slowthai and SZA added plus Ariana and You Me At Six advancing to B List :cheer:

I heard the other day that starting this week Radio 1 are going to be championing a 'future artist' for a month and playing different songs of theirs throughout the day for the next month. This month's artist is TSHA so I wonder if that might have taken the last playlist slot. I agree, not a very exciting update this week, there is loads of stuff that they could have added, most of which you've mentioned there, however I am happy to see Pa Salieu move up to the A List and for Bicep to survive for a 7th week on the playlist.
January 15, 20215 yr Happy for the Lana, SZA and Slowthai adds. I agree that there's some glaring omissions from the playlist - surely London Grammar, Celeste, Tiesto, Prospa and Harry must be added soon. Hopefully the new tracks by Ashnikko, Pale Waves and Baby Queen will all get an add in the near future. Edited January 15, 20215 yr by roz061
January 15, 20215 yr Olivia not immediately A-list is a little odd considering it’s doing 1m per day on Spotify, isn’t it?
January 15, 20215 yr I was definitely expecting an instant A list add for Olivia, a strangely slow reaction to how huge the song is obviously being. Was also hoping for Anne-Marie to be instantly added, particularly as To Be Young went straight to the A list...!!
January 15, 20215 yr I was definitely expecting an instant A list add for Olivia, a strangely slow reaction to how huge the song is obviously being. Was also hoping for Anne-Marie to be instantly added, particularly as To Be Young went straight to the A list...!! I feel like To Be Young flopping has put them off insta adding Anne-Marie and they’ll probably wait to see how this one is received. I can definitely see it being added next week though. Also, I’m not particularly surprised about Olivia Rodrigo only being on the C List. Admittedly I can’t remember the last time a debut single was this huge, but it’s only ever established artists that get insta adds. I think Old Town Road last year was only added onto the C List initially when it was blowing up.
January 15, 20215 yr I’d have preferred for Disclosure and Meduza to be removed and Topic and Anne-Marie added in place
January 15, 20215 yr Was also hoping for Anne-Marie to be instantly added, particularly as To Be Young went straight to the A list...!! Maybe that's the reason they're being more cautious. :lol:
January 15, 20215 yr I was expecting Anne-Marie to be instantly added due to KSI’s involvement on the track
January 15, 20215 yr Wouldn't surprise me if Olivia goes C-A? Pleased to see SZA being added (and I have only heard a few seconds of the slowthai song so far due to it popping up as a YouTube advert but it already sounded like a banger x), and yay for BERWYN going up to B as well after his previous playlisted track stalled on the C-List IIRC!
January 15, 20215 yr BBC Sounds playlist seems to be showing new Foo Fighters - Waiting On A War as the missing C list track.
January 15, 20215 yr Author BBC Sounds playlist seems to be showing new Foo Fighters - Waiting On A War as the missing C list track. Yep, their twitter shows that too, so I've updated the original post. Thanks!
January 15, 20215 yr Author Fantastic to see! Yeah, it's their best song for ages, hope it gets A-listed
January 16, 20215 yr Interestingly, it’s the Travis Scott remix version of Goosebumps that they’re playing as Tune of the Weekend!

Maybe but they still love Anne-Marie, they even gave her new Xmas song ‘Think of Christmas’ loads of spot plays over the December period.
