Great to see Ella added. I presume they’ve playlisted the non-rap album version of ‘Levitating’.

 

Shame to see Biffy given the boot.

Pretty good adds this week
Don’t like A-B movements - seems a waste of a spot for other songs!

I don't see it as a waste, it's usually an opportunity for songs to swap places and something else to move up to the A List or be added there

The best version of Levitating by far. A radio station with taste!

Especially as 5 weeks seem to be your lot on Radio 2 - I think they could afford to play some songs longer than that.

But surely it’s taking the space a brand new song that hasn’t been on the playlist at all which could have the opportunity to be added

Marshmello was added almost instantly so I'd still consider it a 'new track and it is only on its fifth week. I'd understand if they persistently do it but they don't and haven't done since Rain On Me spent 8 weeks on the playlist earlier this year

McFly :wub: it's so much better than the first single, I still don't understand why they didn't lead with this.

Yeh the McFly single is actually really good sounds like a Beatles song!

 

Great new A Listers from New Order and Keith Urban/Pink, should help the latter sell even more on iTunes where’s its doing very well. Kind of shocked ‘Diamonds’ wasn’t moved up as the albums out next week!

Have they stopped using the Chance the Rapper verse on Holy?

They weren't using his version in the first place I don't think. I've heard Holy a couple of times now through casual listens and they're playing the solo version

I remember they played the one with Chance once.

Is it usually around the 20th nov? They usually support all the new Xmas tracks as opposed to radio 1 who are a new music station but refuse to play new Xmas songs even if they’re by artists that make their playlist which is ridiculous. They’d rather play Mariah/Pogues etc from 30 years ago. Mabel and LM last year being the perfect examples. Whereas radio 2 will play one song in late November and even squeeze in a second single before Xmas lol.
