June 8Jun 8 So every single song on that playlist aside from 'Gold' has only ever been on the playlist it's currently on, nothing has moved up or down? Is that right?!
June 9Jun 9 Author Yes that is correct! There seems to be very little movement at the moment of songs. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Sapphire move up next week though.
June 14Jun 14 Author Unfortunately no update yet - the website is still showing last week’s playlist. I reckon Manchild and Suzanne are probably both A-Listed though as they’ve been played a couple of times today.
June 15Jun 15 No that's in September. It occasionally used to do this when I posted it, it usually updates on Mondays if it hasn't been done on Friday evening

June 20Jun 20 Author A few surprises on this week's playlist - nice to see some movement again. I wasn't expecting Calvin to show up now, I thought that ship had long sailed but good to see. Also nice upwards movement for Olivia Dean and Pulp and good to see Sam Fender's new one make it as an insta-add. Surprised to see Lukas Graham on here. I didn't realise they were still releasing music, let alone being supported by R2. It's a shame that the song is quite boring.

July 6Jul 6 Did anybody keep a record of last week's playlist at all? They are up to the 5th July one now but I missed the 28th June. Here's this week's for posterity, without formatting.

July 6Jul 6 Love the Laufey song, she rarely misses for me, her jazz style is so refreshing. Good to see KT Tunstall back on the playlist with Seafret too.
