I feel sorry for Neon Jungle; finally playlisted by Radio 1 only to be snubbed by (arguably) the most influential of them all. Have Capital been playing 'Welcome to the Jungle' at all?

 

EDIT: Comparemyradio says no. Not surprised by their Clyde 1 figure though, I hear it constantly in work.

It's odd Capital never added 'Last Night', despite playing it a lot.

It might've just been an overlook. They hammered Foxes' Let go for tonight too but that was never playlisted as it was probably overlooked.

 

Yay for Foxes! :cheer: Hopefully, pre-orders can improve

Capital always seem to playlist Afrojack songs yet NEVER play them, is there any reason for this?

They do that with a lot of songs. It's really annoying. I don't see the point in them putting them on the playlist when they don't get played. There's some songs they only play at night though.

 

Whats the craic with successful singer songwriters like Ed Sheerans new music in relation to being played on Capital? Did The A Team get plays?

 

Capital played The A Team, Lego House, I think Drunk as well. However, they didn't play You Need Me for some reason.

I think Let Go For 2nite is right, they probably just overlooked it and forgot to add :lol: Doubt they'd snub The Vamps from their playlist in reality.

Yeh, once they started playing The A Team, they never stopped. It was the same with Lego House too...

I don't understand Capital snubbing Neon Jungle this time around, after them getting a big hit with Braveheart. Surely, something must have gone on?

Well, Rizzle Kicks, Adele, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Ed Sheeran, Wretch 32, Chris Brown, fun., LMFAO and others have had big hits and then had their follow-ups ignored by Capital, so it's not unusual.

It reminds me of when Radio 1 snubbed You Bring Me Joy by Amelia but was hammered by Capital, then they snubbed Shut Up completely but Radio 1 got on board for whatever reason. I hope this isnt their Shut Up though, too good of a song to flop! :(

Says a lot that this is relatively fresh by Capital's standards when COUNTING STARS is still there.

 

(Though regardless of how fresh the playlist looks, they continue to actually play a ton of old songs anyway and many of the fresh looking songs on the list get very little actual airtime).

I know the strangest playlist ive ever seen. Actually surprised they have supported One Rep considering its not really their genre!

Wait is Clarity getting a re-release or something?
Clarity? :o
Surprised to see MJ on the Capital playlist! :o Presumably Justin Timberlake plays a big enough part in the song then. Need to get listening to this 'new' MJ stuff!
