April 18Apr 18 Author Thank you to @James. for posting last week's playlist - a big fan of the Kacey Musgraves and Ne-Yo songs that were added last week.Good to see a clearout this week and nice to see Jungle added too. Surprised that they have added the Gaga and Doechii track really. Hopefully Olivia Rodrigo and Sombr will be added next week, quite surprised they weren't added today (although Olivia has already been played as a New to 2 track so I'm pretty sure it will be on there next week).Just to add, I would have also expected LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER by now, I wonder why that’s not been added yet?

At least 'Chariot' was quite catchy!I agree, I always listen to all the new additions I haven’t heard yet when the playlist is put up to see if there’s anything good I’m missing out on, and I genuinely can’t remember a single part of that song!

All I know is that if R1 playlist it then you can be fairly certain it's an official single.
