February 7, 20251 yr Author Looks like they're sticking with the 'tracks from' treatment for Central Cee this week, anyone know if they've actually been playing songs from it rather than just GBP? I don't know why they couldn't just add the Weeknd 'tracks from' last week when the album actually came out. Good to see Gaga insta-added :)
February 7, 20251 yr Looks like they're sticking with the 'tracks from' treatment for Central Cee this week, anyone know if they've actually been playing songs from it rather than just GBP? Think it's just GBP and CRG from what I've seen. The late Weeknd add is strange indeed especially since he wasn't on the playlist at all last week
February 7, 20251 yr South Arcade will be pretty big I think, definitely a BBC Sound of 2026 nominee.
February 7, 20251 yr Happy that Gaga has swiftly been added and yay FKA Twigs getting on the playlist again this era.
February 7, 20251 yr FKA Twigs, Lady Gaga, Jungle and Biig Pigg are the ones I am interested being added!
February 7, 20251 yr To be fair, I think they had their playlist meeting in the middle of the week before it became clear how big this was. It'll obviously be moved up to A-list very quickly.
February 7, 20251 yr No doubts that Gaga will be moved up. Still think people give way too much weight to Radio 1 playlisting, it hardly affects the charts now
February 7, 20251 yr we all know it has zero chart effect thank you but we can be excited and comment anyway I think
February 7, 20251 yr Author Surprised they haven't added Mumford & Sons or Tom Grennan yet, was expecting pretty much immediate support for both. I wonder if they're done with Mumford now?
February 7, 20251 yr Surprised they haven't added Mumford & Sons or Tom Grennan yet, was expecting pretty much immediate support for both. I wonder if they're done with Mumford now? They didn't support Good People if I remember so not that surprised. Tom will probably next week if not the week after hopefully.
February 7, 20251 yr Thought ‘Child Like Things’ was the next single off FKA album as Jacks Future Sounds show has been playing that one! Wish ‘Peace Song’ would move up to the A List as it’s the best song they’ve ever released. Also love the Sienna Spiro song, it’s amazing and Matilda Mann is future artist although feels like she’s been around for years! Edited February 7, 20251 yr by Steve201
February 7, 20251 yr A bit of a disappointing update for me - I thought 'Abracadabra' would enter in at least the B list and the other additions aren't particularly exciting for me either. I'm hoping we get Tom Grennan, Luude, Djo, Self Esteem and Good Neighbours all added next week.
February 7, 20251 yr Author They didn't support Good People if I remember so not that surprised. Tom will probably next week if not the week after hopefully. 'Good People' was a standalone single rather than part of a new era though and they don't always support those, so I didn't read too much into that. But yeah it looks like it's the end of the road for them with R1 playlisting!
February 8, 20251 yr I would not be surprised if Radio 1 aren't supporting Mumford & Sons any more tbh. They've been around for quite a while and aren't particularly relevant / acclaimed these days. (Although that doesn't stop them still A-Listing everything Coldplay releases etc. :kink:) I had Jack Saunders' show on in the car for a bit the other day and heard him playing 'Striptease' there - sounded great to me so glad that is the new single. Odd that they're giving The Weeknd the 'tracks from' treatment a week late!
