July 24, 201412 yr Ken Bruce has been playing that Within Temptation track for a while already, possibly they were giving it spot plays to test reaction or maybe the record company are going for a re-promotion?
July 31, 201411 yr Ken Bruce has been playing that Within Temptation track for a while already, possibly they were giving it spot plays to test reaction or maybe the record company are going for a re-promotion? Or maybe it's such a flawless song that they needed to play it all the time :kink:

August 15, 201411 yr Sinead O'Conner on the list with a song called 'Take Me to Chruch'. I'm surprised Hozier isn't on there (I know R1 are playing it, it seems like as song that'd also be R2 friendly). :lol:
August 15, 201411 yr No problem Liam! :D Kacey Musgraves getting some more R2 support :wub: Fingers crossed it can help the album re-enter the top 100 again!

September 3, 201411 yr I didn't think Meghan Trainor was the kinda thing R2 played but ok :lol: Should be pretty big now I suppose, streaming and airplay all seem to be good for it.
September 3, 201411 yr I didn't think "Bailiando" was Radio 2 fodder. :lol: "All About That Bass" sounds like Duffy, so I can understand why they'd go for it.
September 4, 201411 yr I didn't think "Bailiando" was Radio 2 fodder. :lol: Yeah, I was surprised to see it on the playlist! :o The song has been a hit in the US but it's not even top 50 on the adult contemporary chart there. Nice that they're playing it though. I wonder if they're playing the Spanish versions, since the English version has Sean Paul (an artist I'd expect Radio 2 not to like very much :lol:).

Radio 2 A-Listed Sean Paul's duet with Simple Plan a couple of years ago, so they're not completely against him.
September 4, 201411 yr Radio 2 A-Listed Sean Paul's duet with Simple Plan a couple of years ago, so they're not completely against him. I completely forgot about that song! It was a strange collab now that I think about it. I don't know why they have Sean Paul on the English version of Bailando, considering most people who speak English can't understand what he's saying anyway. :lol: Edited September 4, 201411 yr by Eric_Blob
