July 30, 20223 yr So I guess this is confirmation that P!nk has now been tossed over to R2? Or some might say she's too 'irrelevant' for R1 - which is a shame :(
July 30, 20223 yr They should move Foo Fighters whilst they are at it. I don't get how they are still on there when they are much older than her and also haven't had a top 40 hit in ages (I wouldn't count the 'Times Like These' charity song). I guess they didn't have room also for two Pink's (ie Cassyette whose songs are extremely Pink esque). 'Irrelevant' does sound more tailored to Radio 2 than Radio 1. Edited July 30, 20223 yr by Roba.
July 30, 20223 yr Dfference with Foo Fighters is that are probably more relevant with the sound and style of their music. Radio 2 listeners aren't going necessarily enjoy the sound of some of their heavy rock songs.
July 30, 20223 yr I wouldn't necessarily count P!nk out yet, I think the real test will be whether R1 support the lead single from her next album proper. They could easily not, but I wouldn't say it's totally out of the question. Impressive for her if they do though!
July 31, 20223 yr They should have stopped supporting Pink ages ago, it's been 10 years since she released her last good song
July 31, 20223 yr the lead from Beautiful Trauma, What About Us was incredible and one of her best ever <3 the next lead, Walk You Home, was very soccer mommy territory but still great and worth supporting I kinda get why they wouldn't support Irrelevant, bit of a nothing song, but it's just a charity single, not an album lead
July 31, 20223 yr They should have stopped supporting Pink ages ago, it's been 10 years since she released her last good song Whatever you say...

August 12, 20223 yr Author Interesting for R2 to playlist Cat Burns this time when they didn't bother with go.
August 14, 20223 yr Author I wonder if Radio 2 will play Elton John & Britney’s new one? I'll be surprised if they don't. It'll be instant A List you can count on it.

August 21, 20223 yr I wonder if Radio 2 will play Elton John & Britney’s new one? They definitely will, will Radio 1 is the better question. I would hope so considering Britney’s cultural relevance right now but I fully expect their ageism to strike again
August 21, 20223 yr They definitely will, will Radio 1 is the better question. I would hope so considering Britney’s cultural relevance right now but I fully expect their ageism to strike again I’m not expecting Radio 1 to play it all. They only played Cold Heart because of Dua. I reckon Capital will playlist it though.
