I've got about 10 of these on first pass through but the rest are going to need some thinking about!

It strikes me that some of these might have more than one correct answer. Will you still give points if the answer fits the clue even though it wasn't the answer you had in mind? Also I wasn't aware a new quiz season had started

I'm pretty sure it was a single so I can only imagine that R1 passed on it, I remember being quite surprised at the time that they didn't playlist it

Can't call how Alex Warren's album is gonna do. Have people been discussing it in the pubs?

Congrats @jimwatts a great song to have won, but also a great top 3, all of which I gave points to. I must admit I thought my Aimee Mann entry would do a little better but I scraped a top half finish so I'll take that! Excellent presenting @dandy*!

Oops just realised there are still three votes to be revealed so I've edited this! As you were!

Thanks to everyone who's voted for Aimee Mann, nice to see I'm finally in the top 10... whether I'll stick there is another question but I'll take a fleeting appearance!

Oh wow thank you @Herbs for those 10 points, pushing me up to within striking distance of the top 10!!

The top three are running away with it!

Am I the only one surprised this isn't doing better? I know it's just a standalone release (and also a midweek release) but I would have thought her fanbase would have at least got it top 10 for a week!

Tell me about it! I know she's picked up a few more now but I'm disappointed she's struggling so far... having said that, I'm very happy to see Melanie in the lead at the moment, that was such a good discovery!

Hey Seltin! Oh I'm the opposite, I prefer Ariana's previous single! HRVY's song is OK but again the previous single was much better. Well at least Benson made the top 20 here lol. Thanks

No because they don't have to playlist every pop artist lol. What's your obsession with him? He's been playlisted by Radio 2 if that helps?

I'm not a big fan of any of the next #1 contenders so I really hope 'Jolene' gets it, although admittedly that's looking more and more unlikely now.

The British public showing such a lack of taste

Will probably take a few more listens but my first thought was how ballad-heavy it is. I generally prefer his upbeat stuff. And as for voicenotes on albums, I wish they could be banned!

Weakest of the three new songs for me.

The playlists lengths are fairly variable these days. The B-list sometimes has 15, sometimes 14. The fact that there's one less song on the playlist this week is because there were 11 songs on the C-list last week and only 10 this week!

Post now updated. Wish I could say it was worth the wait! Surprised to see Bebe A-listed and also to see HUGEL booted off when it's still riding high in the charts.

Thanks DaTilt, I'm enjoying 'Petal' but not as much as the previous single!

Not sure why you think they'd ever add James Blunt!
