Xmas chart coming at 0000hrs on Christmas Day!

Yes, think Really Love is one of those where the verses are better than the chorus, which sounds pretty drippy to me. Thought Get Out My Head would be higher in the real chart but obviously it's being blocked from a higher spot by Xmasgeddon. Hope Lucid does something in Jan, if that can't be a hit for her nothing will be! Lols at the songs by big names that briefly rise high but have no staying power because they're massively below their usual standards. Hi Therefore I Am! Just not felt inclined to play it that much hence its 53-place drop.

Decided there was so much competition between festive standards and recent stuff that it would be quite interesting to compile a Top 75 until the Xmas songs have effed off.

Great to see so many things that have absolutely no chance of singles chart success on the A-list. This used to be normal! High Contrast, Glass Animals, Tame Impala, Easy Life, Disclosure...anyone who wants nothing but Top 40 hits on the A-list can head to Capital. There was a time when it felt R1 were attempting to emulate Capital too much in the daytime. Although the fact so much airtime is being given to Xmas songs right now might make them feel like B-list songs anyway.

Great to finally see Easier on the playlist. ATM and NOPUS also flying high on my personal chart. I thought Missy was playlisted in 2015 with WTF (Where They From) but maybe I just imagined it and it was just a few spot plays.

The Celebrity Juice of dance music. Music created to soundtrack imbeciles getting off with each other on Love Island.

Joel Corry was already a poor man's MK/Calvin Harris. Imagine being the bargain bin Joel Corry.

Also, whilst we're here, I'm really struggling to decide whether that Shane Codd track is decent or a Joel Corry/Nathan Dawe z-side, please help. I'm all for dance music in the charts but sometimes it can get a bit ASDA Smart Price.

I'd never heard of Discord either until a few weeks ago when I got an invite cos I was a fan of Phil Taggart on FB. It's basically just a cross between a fanpage and a chat room, with several sub-chat rooms, and no cynical jaded knobheads that criticise absolutely everything so infinitely better than Facebook.

Small world! Really enjoying it! I do the streaming services like it's going out of fashion but it's really enhanced my radio experience. The sense of community and belonging is exceptionally welcome right now. I got my request on last night, if Lithium being swapped for In Bloom counts! Jack seems like a top lad.

I have been listening to lots of Jack Saunders recently as I can't listen to much Annie Mac cos parenting. Also, there is a really fun Discord group for the listeners that Jack pops into during the show. Listening to more late-night R1 than daytime at the moment!

Good to see the Foos hanging on. To be fair, Shame Shame sounds perfect for Radio 1 and I don't think about their age at all when listening to it. Still a lot of inconsistency though, they ignored Muse on their last album aside from Thought Contagion (not that the singles after that were very good). But I'm sure they have focus grouped it to death etc and concluded that enough 'young people' are still interested in FF. Additionally, this is interesting - apparently this 15-29 thing has been quietly dropped since OFCOM took over and now there are just fleeting "young audience" references to shows like Life Hacks etc in the R1 licence. No more feeling like Steve Buscemi with the skateboard in that meme at the grand old age of 37 just for commiting the heinous crime of loving new music! It will always need to sound youthful and highly energetic but is nice to know I'm welcome. As Greg said on-air the other week after someone texted in saying their girlfriend had said it was probably time for them to move to Radio 2 now, "if you like new things and fun things, this is the place for you"!

Where the heck's Easier?
