You know it's that time of the summer with the big album releases when you see 'Tracks From...' on the playlist!

So Sigora finally getting that late add. Good to see 'Kiss My' go straight to B-list too.

MK seems to have re-appeared on the B-list this week so the most likely explanation is that it was still on there last week and the website was wrong.

July 30, 20214 yr

Surprised they haven't added the MK remix of Celeste's 'Stop This Flame' yet.

Swedish House Mafia new track is awful and Sigala can do better imo! Don't know the other new additions this week.

Nice to see Daves album getting some playlist support, such a good album - wonder if they’ll play the overtly political ‘Three Rivers’ or not? When the Live Lounge version of a song like BTS is on there do they then not give spins to the normal version or is it totally random?

Knew Kid Laroi would be A-Listed but happy for Becky/Guetta as I’m never sure whether they will go full support for her. Nice to see the return of Swedish House Mafia to the playlist and continued support for Wolf Alice and Girl in Red. Also ‘Human Replacement’ is a fantastic track by Billie Marten. Also nice to see Mahalia on there, she has the makings of a superstar, just needs a big hit.

Anyone else not think the new Ray Blk sounds like Rihanna??

Worst news of the week is the paltry 3 weeks for the Joy Crookes track, best song of the moment for me.

Hadji rejoices at Sigala being added, but probably laments Ed Sheeran still being there.

That SHM track is pitiful, but I thought their other equally pitiful one was the main single? :unsure:

July 30, 20214 yr

I am rejoicing at Sigora being added and I can’t say anything about Ed still being on there. R1 don’t remove songs which are still at #1

'How Can I Make It OK?' is gorgeous, very pleased to see that as the next single choice for Wolf Alice :wub:

'How Can I Make It OK?' is gorgeous, very pleased to see that as the next single choice for Wolf Alice :wub:

Will keep me listening to the album 7 times a week into the autumn ❤️

'Solar Power' really feels like it's been and gone at this point, as does 'Dumb Love'.

July 30, 20214 yr

Love the new adds for Billie Marten, Girl In Red, Mahalia, SHM and Wolf Alice. That Wolf Alice track has got to be one of the standout songs of the year so far.

Very happy to see Nothing But Thieves, Shermanology and Arlo rise to the B list, and I agree with steve201 that Joy was removed too soon.

Love love love the BBC Introducing track - it's so catchy. Amazing to think it's their debut song! I can see big things ahead for Wet Leg.

July 30, 20214 yr

'Solar Power' really feels like it's been and gone at this point, as does 'Dumb Love'.

Yeh I like ‘Solar Power’ but can’t say I love it! Just in the middle and wasn’t a big hit either, hope she has a banger like ‘Greenlight’ up her sleeve before the album comes out!

Surprised at a few things on the playlist today: Sigrid still being on the A List (although quite pleased about it), Maneskin and Jonasu still being on the B List, still keeping the flop Mabel single on the playlist for a 7th week and then actually playlisting the new SHM (although I’m glad they’ve gone for It Gets Better as it’s far better)

Looks like they might be done with Bastille now sadly, hopefully the new Lil Nas X single gets added soon - thought it would have been added today! Also hopefully they swap the Doja singles too considering she’s now got 2 songs doing far better than You Right. Fingers crossed for PinkPantheress soon as well!

Also doesn’t look like they’re going to add JonasMello or Tones and I. Scott Mills has given both those tracks spot plays in the last couple of weeks but I think it’s too late for them both now.

July 30, 20214 yr

Yeh the Marshmello/Jonas song is not my thing but a real warworm! As you say hugely surprised they didn’t instant A-List Lil Nas considering how big he is currently. Feels like the Doja song on there was added due to the Weeknd name. They really should up Manneskin and Jonasu to full rotation as they are huge currently.
