  • or because they just realised it was mega cringe

    My rule of thumb is that Radio 1 will be backing the big artists and won't actively snub singles from them. Radio 2 work similarly - they don't playlist non-singles away from "tracks from album x". C

The EsDeeKid removal is a bit odd, considering it was just moved up to the A-list last week. Did something happen that I'm not aware of?

'Stateside' really needs to go now, there's no way it needs a 12th week on the playlist confused

With Fcukers being the Future Artist for the month, you'd think they'd get more than just 3 weeks on the C-list!

Hopefully they switch 'Dopamine' for 'Talk To Me' next week!

No add for James Marriott sadly, wish they would add him as he's clearly one of the most popular UK artists right now! Did they ever playlist Lovejoy/Wilbur Soot? Will be pretty mad if they supported them and not James...

In love with that Geese song at the moment (lol at the abridged title though) so yay for the rise to B-List... A-List next please wub 🪿

Couple of very premature removals for Romy and EsDeeKid, especially when you see some very long runners on the A-list.

I’ve not really followed the Radio 1 playlist - but some songs have been on there for a very long time.

I wonder what the record is?

I see they have taken Raindance off after 9 weeks, despite the fact that it is riding high in the charts at the moment.

It makes me wonder whether they will leave Stateside on despite the fact that it is finally taking off.

They'll take it off when it takes off kink

Regarding the record, since I started tracking the playlist in 2012, it's 'Don't Forget My Love' by Diplo feat. Miguel which was (rather inexplicably) playlisted for 16 weeks. A few more tracks have had 14 and 15 weeks:

Diplo feat. Miguel Don't Forget My Love C-C-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-A-A-A 04/03/22 16

Drake feat. WizKid & Kyla One Dance B-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A 15/04/16 15

Rag'n'Bone Man Human C-B-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A 25/11/16 14

Da Baby feat. Roddy Rich Rockstar C-B-B-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A 24/04/20 14

Ed Sheeran Sing C-C-B-B-A-A-B-A-A-A-A-A-A-A 09/04/14 14

Gotye feat. Kimbra Somebody That I Used To Know C-B-B-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A 04/01/12 14

Noah Kahan Stick Season C-B-B-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A 13/10/23 14

Wonder what caused Ed to drop to B list then back up to A

Is it a rare thing for songs to actually fall down the playlist before being taken off

It did used to happen quite a bit but very rarely now.

Weird removing the fcukers song when they are future artist for January. And early removals for Romy and Esdeekid doesn’t make sense unless the labels pulled them.

Does the Diplo/Miguel track even get played on R1 Anthems now 🫣.

Fav songs on the playlist:

Alist - Talk of the Town

B List - Au Pays Du Cocaine

Clist - The Treadmill

Why have they removed Dave and EsDeeKid? Would’ve made more sense to remove Charli and JADE as they’re doing absolutely nothing in the charts.

all these new entries are so good omg!

girl… no. keep my JADE out your damn mouth

I love JADE (and Charli) but my point is it makes more sense to keep the songs in that are high in the charts than the songs that are doing absolutely nothing…

That Diplo run is still the most bizarre thing.

Especially when Let You Go ft. Kareen Lomax was easily the better single from his album, I am still sad that wasn't the hit.

Is the first time Sabrina has been on the C List since ‘Espresso’?

i think so? This is definitely the first non single she’s had playlisted tho

'Espresso' actually entered on the B-list so since even before that. In fact she's only ever spent two weeks on the C-list before now.

Then 'Espresso' spent one week on the B-list before progressing to the A-list, and every single playlisted week she's had since then has been on the A-list! A very impressive achievement!

Nonsense C-B-B-B-B-B

Feather C-B-B-B-B-B-A-A-A-A-A-A

Espresso B-A-A-A-A-A-A-A

Please Please Please A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A

Radio 1's Live Lounge A

Tracks From 'Short n' Sweet' A

Taste A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A

Bed Chem A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A

Busy Woman A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A

Manchild A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A

Tracks From 'Man's Best Friend' A

Tears A-A-A-A-A-A-A

Even Taylor hasn't managed that level of A-list occupancy - 4 of her last 6 singles started out on the C-list!

yea it’s quite rare tbf.. it happened to Lisa’s ‘Born Again’ just last year but that’s the only recent example i can think of

I wonder if EsDeeKid might be moving onto pushing a different song to radio soon? But still odd to pull 'Century' so soon even if so.

I believe it happened to one of Doja Cat's own songs as well, poor hen.
