July 26, 20241 yr Author A nice shiny new home for the Radio 2 playlist in its own thread, thanks Joseph ^_^ Radio 2 having a Brat summer thanks to Jeremy Vine :cheeseblock:. To be fair, Apple has always sounded like the most suitable track to be featured on the station so I'm glad they've picked it up. Taylor is always consistently added to R1 and R2 on the same day! I Can Do It With A Broken Heart is alright but hasn't really interested me beyond the odd spot play. Muni Long strong enough to get an insta-add on release week, okay. 21st Century Folk on the C List is not a compilation album but a collection of songs that have been played as part of the feature on Mark Radcliffe's weekly Folk Show. Nice to see Jessie/Romy moving up to the A List. Edited July 26, 20241 yr by lewistgreen
July 28, 20241 yr Author Might use this space to bring back the 'New to 2' lists I used to include with the playlist. These are the songs given spot plays across the station on daytime that may end up on the playlist in the future. w/c 20th July 2024 Alison Goldfrapp - I Wanna Be Loved (Just A Little Better) Blossoms - Perfect Me Calum Scott - Roots Calvin Harris & Ellie Goulding - Free Cheat Codes, Punctual & Raphaella - Find Love Now Courteeners - Solitude Of The Night Chappell Roan - HOT TO GO! Dasha - Didn't I Earl Slick x David Bowie - Isn't It Evening JP Cooper - Waiting On A Blue Sky Mabel - Female Intuition Michael Kiwanuka - Floating Parade Morgan Wade - Total Control ØZMA - Wanna Do Primal Scream - Love Insurrection St. Lundi - Say So Tom Walker - Holy Ghost Edited July 28, 20241 yr by lewistgreen
July 28, 20241 yr Same here, love the new thread! Maybe it’s because I’m getting old but the R2 playlist is so much better rounded than R1s one! They seem free to play a mix of all ages whereas R1 is so restricted to age!
July 28, 20241 yr I must admit, I do quite enjoy the more eclectic mix of music on R2 these days! Interesting that 'HOT TO GO!' has been given spot plays on R2, I wonder if that means it's going to be properly pushed as the next single?

July 29, 20241 yr Author Interesting that 'HOT TO GO!' has been given spot plays on R2, I wonder if that means it's going to be properly pushed as the next single? I say 'spot plays' to mean the whole list when in fact for HOT TO GO! it was played only once last week and by Scott. Often New to 2 tracks appear geared towards the presenter so I'd imagine they have a hand in picking them. (Without going back and checking again) I think of that whole list only the tracks from Michael Kiwanuka, Mabel and JP Cooper were played more than once. Edited July 29, 20241 yr by lewistgreen
July 30, 20241 yr Author Taylor Swift has not been played at all since the early hours of yesterday morning in light of recent events. I Can Do It With A Broken Heart has been temporarily removed from the playlist.

They seem free to play a mix of all ages whereas R1 is so restricted to age! The playlist looks like a greatest hits (in artist terms) of the last 25 years of Radio 1! Most will have been playlisted in the past, and a few are playlisted currently!
