They haven't playlisted Louis since 'Two Of Us' so wouldn't hold your breath on that one! I assume they will playlist Guetta in the next couple of weeks though.

great for tove...

 

weird about elton/britney - it reminds me of 2011 when she was having her biggest radio hit with 'I Wanna Go' and yet they didn't see it as a fit for radio.

Great to see Tove Lo playlisted and Rina up to the B-list! I hope Lizzo can get playlisted in the coming weeks.

Radio 1 added Cold Heart on week 7, it was #2 at the time. If Hold Me Closer sticks around in the top 10 (which I’m not sure it will) then they will begrudgingly add it, but if it free falls there’s no chance.

That's insane, I had no idea they were so reluctant to support Cold Heart at the time. I guess they really hate Elton.

It's a bit of a stretch to say they "hate" Elton :unsure: I'd say it's pretty obvious why they won't playlist him, it's for the same reason they don't playlist Tom Jones or Rod Stewart.

Did I miss Tom and Rod having massive streaming hits? I've not paid much attention to the charts in a while.

The Elton song is hardly a "massive streaming hit" at the moment - but if it does become one over the next few weeks then you can expect it to be playlisted, which is exactly what happened with 'Cold Heart'.

I was commenting on the fact that it took them seven weeks to playlist Cold Heart. Did it take seven weeks for that song to prove that it was popular?

No One Dies From Love is my favourite song of the year so far! Would've loved that yo have got support but regardless I am over the moon to see Tove Lo on the playlist. She deserves everything! :wub:

They actually played Hold Me Closer 3 times in the past week. For a non-playlisted track, that's not exactly them snubbing it because of 'age' is it.

Sorry, but I've completely missed your point. All I was saying is that just because Radio 1 haven't playlisted Elton it doesn't mean that they "hate" him!

23-24k in streaming “sales”, it’s hardly streaming poison. And it’s “The Elton” AND Britney song, fyi.

People have been calling it a 'Britney song' with no mention of Elton all week (despite the fact Elton is far more present on it than Britney), it's only appropriate we get some of the opposite to balance it out x
