Why don’t they start an hour earlier so they can play the entire top 40 in full?

Radio 2’s demographic is much younger than you think - it’s basically millennials now.

Line up for 27 March - Dark Thoughts - Lil Tecca (30), For Now - Jade (25), Nokia - Drake (19), Emergence - Sleep Token (17), Evil Jordan - Playboi Carti (7), Busy Woman - Sabrina Carpenter (6), Anxiety - Doechi (3), Ordinary - Alex Warren (1)

They should move it to Radio 2 permanently IMO.

Land of Make Believe, no question. Making Your Mind Up is very overrated IMO.

Line up for 20 March - Sailor Song - Gigi Perez (37), Like Jennie - Jennie (36), Headlock - Imogen Heap (32), Love Me Not - Raven Lenae (27), Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else - Benson Boone (25), Abracadabra - Lady Gaga (3), Ordinary - Alex Warren (2), Pink Pony Club - Chappell Roan (1)

Amazing sales for Oasis! Doesn’t look like that will be bettered for the rest of 1997……..

The Millennium Prayer!

The charts still reflect popular consumption within a 7 day period, so of course they’re still real. This is a bit of a fatuous question. They’ll stop being real whenever airplay is taken into account.

Line up for 13 March - Guess - Charli XCX / Billie Eilish (24), Who - Jimin (23), Bed Chem - Sabrina Carpeneter (19), Anxiety - Sleepy Hallow / Doechii (15), Bad Dreams - Teddy Swims (10), Nice to Meet You - Myles Smith (8), Messy - Lola Young (7), Pink Pony Club - Chappell Roan (1)

So Not Like Us becomes the 99th #1 with a weekly sale of less than 40K - what will be the 100th?

Line up for 27 February - Here in Your Arms - Nathan Dawe / Abi Flynn (45), People Watching - Sam Fender (26), Crush - AJ Tracey / Jorja Smith (23), Nokia - Drake (18), Die with a Smile - Lady Gaga / Bruno Mars (16), Bad Dreams - Teddy Swims (14), Pink Pony Club - Chappell Roan (3) Not Like Us - Kendrick Lemar (1)
