Wow surprised to see Diana Ross on the Radio 1 playlist in 1999! Great song too. If only they were as open-minded now (I know they’re better than they were but it still seems very reluctant)

Strange was that Radio 2 was snubbing her apparently

To be fair though it was a dance song not really Radio 2 fare, this must be before they just automatically sent songs by older artists to Radio 2 regardless of the genre

It has a ballad version though, they didnt even playlist that. Also the Tina Turner track was quite dancey too, and that was A-listed

The Metro remix was the single version, I don’t think the original was promoted at all. Tina Turner’s is less clubby so I can see why it’s more Radio 2 than 1

Tune of the Weeks:

Mylo + Rosie: Lime Garden - Moving Target

Greg James: Gracie Abrams - Here You Come, There You Go

Charlie + Jerry: Season 25 - Shotta's

Matt + Mollie: Matilda Mann - Chain Reaction

Katie + Friends: FLO - I Can't Be High Around You Anymore

FLO. cheeseblock

Yeah but Radio 2 sometimes played the ballad versions of dancier/pop songs when they exist

ADELA and Ashe are both still getting A-list rotation.

I don’t get why they couldn’t have done the same with sombr a few weeks, rather than keeping him on the main playlist for 13 weeks.

honestly it would've been nicer if we could've kept them and dropped Cloonee and one of Blossoms or Phoebe.

Wonder if they'll add an edited version of that new JADE and Hans Zimmer track, given how much support they are putting behind it.

LISA - Tarantino and Holly Humberstone - Too Cute To Be Lonely might be advancing next week? Mylo + Rosie played 1tros for them both and both are C Listers- so unless they are giving the C Listers 1tros for this week for whatever reason that should be a hint

They do go through stages over giving C-list songs power itros, even if they don’t advance higher. Though they are both likely to be on the B-list next week.

Yea originally i only noticed ‘Tarantino’ had one so i was like “yea that makes sense they have been so supportive of that”. ‘Too Cute To Be Lonely’ is throwing me off though cause of the trajectory ‘White Noise’ had.

One bad run doesn’t mean an artist will suddenly not get good support.

‘To Love Somebody’ and ‘Cruel World’ were both A-listed earlier in the year. I wouldn’t have gone with ‘White Noise’ as the post-album single as I thought it sounded a bit too similar to the previous two - ‘Beauty Pageant’ or ‘Red Chevy’ would’ve been better.

I reckon ‘Too Cute To Be Lonely’ will at least move to the B-list, I’m 50/50 on whether it’ll go A-list.

Alena - Turn It Around

Ace choices 20 years back - two absolute bangers! The UK mix of "Turn It Around" by Space Brothers is such a gem.

This sadly happens a lot more often than it should. It looks like Jazzy will fall victim to it, artists that get stuck on the B List can get stuck to the C List instead (John Summit, (briefly) Alex Warren, Wasia Project, possibly Sasha Keable now too)

However i agree Holly will probably get B Listed, even if Die Happy was originally stuck in the B List she managed to achieve 2 A Listers back to back, probably making her immune to the C List curse off the back of White Noise but it isn't a guarantee she'll get a listed.
