Maybe. Or they just chit-chat more, which is probably accurate. I hardly hear Chris Moyles play any music nowadays

 

Yeah, i think this is the reason why :angry:

Is it just me, or has R1 playlisted more songs 5 years ago? (I haven't counted up though)

I think that's the problem everywhere. Look at the TV stations. For example German music channel VIVA used to playlist the entire German top 60 + around 30 new songs. Now they hardly playlist 50 songs :w00t:

As for Will Young, I'm sure he does not need R1, but it's nevertheless strange to ignore him compared to some of the things they play nowadays...

And still no Will Young... :???:

 

 

They won't be playing him either, I'll just say Scott Mills and Chappers and leave it at that.

VIVA was an amazing channel before getting bought by Viacom

More chit-chat, and they play quite a few older songs every show too. I dunno about everyone else, but I enjoy the chit-chat. I tune into Radio 1 for the DJs and not the music generally.

Lol its the complete opposite for me. I just listen for the music only. Yeah they play some old songs, but usually they're those really overplayed songs, and only from the last 2-3 years.

So they add Miley Virus and Basshunter but not Will Young? :/

I didn't know they were supporting Sam Beeton though., Least they do something right once in a while.

I think these have their LAST chance of being playlisted next week:

 

Jennifer Hudson – Spotlight

Michelle Williams – We Break The Dawn

Natty – Bedroom Eyes

N*E*R*D – Sooner Or Later

OneRepublic – Mercy

R.I.O. - Shine On

Skepta – Rolex Sweep

Wiley - Summertime

Will Young – Changes

Boyzone – Love You Anyway

Platnum - Love Shy (Thinking About You)

Sara Bareilles - Bottle It Up

 

Doesn't surprise me that OneRepublic haven't been playlisted after their last single :(

 

Michelle, Platnum & Sara are the only others im bothered about! But like Rich said I am quite surprised Rolex Sweep hasn't been playlisted :o

Suprised Sara's not playlisted yet, Love Song was huge so it baffles me.

Why is it the last chance for Michelle Williams and Sara anyway?? :unsure:

 

When are they released? Coz they are getting Big rotation on Music Channels (Well Michelle is) Sara is JUST starting too with BIU!

Michelle is out on the 22nd and Sara on the 29th. Which is before (or the same week) as the new Sugababes, P!nk and Basshunter songs (probably a load of others too) that are on the playlist already.

^^yeah that was my criteria. A lot of songs released on those weeks are already on the playlists. Some songs released on Michelle's week are already A-listed.

Bit of a rubbish playlist, all the good stuff is yet to come this year i reckon.

 

Shame about duffy too : (

Evergreen - Blist

Light My Fire - Blist

Don't Let Me Down - Clist

Leave Right Now - Blist

Your Game - Blist

Friday's Child - Clist

Switch It On - Alist

All Time Love - Blist

 

 

Thanks for that i did not realise Will had been playlisted so many times by Radio 1 :D

Hope they add Jordin Sparks' Tattoo soon.

 

That's getting re-issued? :puke2: Dire musically and the lyrics could surely be challengers for the worst ever?
