January 6, 20233 yr Author The B List is actually 8 tracks on the website, but there's no way they've removed Ward Thomas after 1 week so I've kept them in but it's still 1 short there; it occasionally happens and their socials don't suggest anything else is missing from new additions. Really great to see Self Esteem progress as it's rare for something to be on the B List for so long and then move up. Shania Twain straight on the A List the day after release is fab *.*

Also a new entry for BRELAND, what a great name for a band. Maybe a certain BJ member will need a username change? Must give them a listen though!
January 6, 20233 yr Author Nice to see Sams album getting plenty of support now a second week on the A List! A few albums getting more than one week recently. Let's see what they've been playing from Sam this week (since 27th Dec update): All The Way Over - 4 More - 2 Put A Light On Me - 14 Somebody - 1 SPACE MAN - 2 Whirlwind - 2

January 8, 20233 yr Author Excuse me Radio 2 where is Tiny Riot? :unsure: They don't usually play the whole album. I'm not sure how they decide but it's usually limited to 5 or 6 songs
January 11, 20233 yr Author Thanks to the Sugababes for the early update this week on their Instagram!

January 17, 20233 yr Ken Bruce has announced he is leaving Radio 2 at the end of March and will join Greatest Hits Radio in April https://bbc.in/3QIPOem?fbclid=IwAR0FOCjBJSW...vliKVA2xfNo7VqE
January 17, 20233 yr Well my time (sort of) listening to Radio 2 will be shortlived then! (Only for PopMaster, which I see further down the article will be migrating to Greatest Hits Radio with him - I hope/presume he will still be continuing to upload the 'podcast' version).
January 17, 20233 yr Author Wow that's a big loss for Radio 2. Yes Ken is getting on a bit but he is still enjoyable to listen to and it's a shame Popmaster is going with him. No one really striking me as an obvious replacement. Perhaps Trevor Nelson but he hasn't covered in the daytime on the station before, maybe someone completely new instead. Scott used to cover for Ken as did Gary but he seems to Breakfast cover for now. OJ is another likely shout and would give them a daytime Manchester show like Radio 1.
January 18, 20233 yr I can’t see Trevor Nelson doing a daytime show as he loves the freedom he gets with the evening shows to play the music he is passionate about.

January 20, 20233 yr Author Nice to see Cian added again after the support for his first single. Can't say I'm enjoying this one as much though. I did wonder if Escapism would be added for RAYE but The Thrill Is Gone makes more sense for R2's general vibe. Darin is an interesting choice. The song is over 18 months old and only now getting a UK push?
January 20, 20233 yr Thought R2 would have jumped on that Dolly Parton, Belinda Carlisle et al track.
