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)

Tina Turner’s is less clubby so I can see why it’s more Radio 2 than 1

November 3Nov 3 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.

November 3Nov 3 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 Edited November 3Nov 3 by Jayd0n

Though they are both likely to be on the B-list next week.

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.

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.
