January 9, 20215 yr I think it’s a naturally progression to playing older songs the current demographic would have heard when younger so they play stuff 35+ would have listened to and then cater for. I mean in the 2040s for example the 80s stuff will be like the 60s stuff now you won’t hear it much as the generations move on.

January 22, 20215 yr Loving the random Armin Van Buuren add whilst the Number 1 single ends up on the B List :lol: Edited January 22, 20215 yr by gavindeejay
January 22, 20215 yr Lol at the Armin Van Buuren add 😮. Nice choice of new single for Gary Barlow. Also happy that Passenger made the playlist albeit after his album release. Heard some nice tracks on it this week as it was album of the week.
January 22, 20215 yr OUT Leslie Odom Jr. feat. Sia - Cold [A-A-A-A] goodbye legend :( Edited January 22, 20215 yr by GraceAJX
January 22, 20215 yr Author Despite it being Armin, the song itself really doesn't sound so out of place on the playlist once your hear it :kink:
January 22, 20215 yr omg king Armin!! albeit with one of his least interesting songs of recent times but R2 aren’t exactly going to play his trance records.
January 23, 20215 yr Despite it being Armin, the song itself really doesn't sound so out of place on the playlist once your hear it :kink: Did R2 playlist This Is What It Feels Like back in the day? Anyway this Armin track is a bit too understated for me to like much sadly.
January 23, 20215 yr Did R2 playlist This Is What It Feels Like back in the day? Not sure about R2 but R1 definitely did, it's the last time he was playlisted.
January 23, 20215 yr Not sure about R2 but R1 definitely did, it's the last time he was playlisted. I was really gutted at the time the follow up ‘Beautiful Life’ was snubbed by R1. Loved that one!

January 29, 20215 yr The musical celebration is a right bore for me lol, only listened to The Pop Quiz on Ken Bruce today and that was it, had plenty of new albums to spin anyway from Celeste and Arlo though. Surprised to see Passenger make the A-List in this era and Bieber took his time getting there. Also hugely surprised to see Pale Waves on the playlist, this must be the first time for them? Morgan Wallen has had a rollercoaster ride with this single. Also nice to see Foos on there as I think radio 1 will restrict them on the B List.
