April 2, 20241 yr Author Nice to see two NEs for NBT and The Rolling STones. Also happy to have helped ‘Enjoy The Silence’ have a new entry! NBT actually have three, 'Amsterdam' has somehow never entered before!
April 3, 20241 yr Just noticed that there’s no Coldplay. I’m pretty sure they’ve been included in previous years.
April 3, 20241 yr Author Just noticed that there’s no Coldplay. I’m pretty sure they’ve been included in previous years. Their last appearance was in the 2018 list, with Yellow & Fix You :)
April 3, 20241 yr Author Wonder why their being snubbed. They do play Coldplay from time to time. Radio X fans don't seem to like them, based on the Instagram comments whenever they're mentioned - unfortunately!
