Radio 2 Playlist 2022
It'll shift over time, I just don't think it'll be doing anything too drastic any time soon. But it does already plays a lot of 90s and 00s, particularly on shows like Sara Cox and Rylan. Though I think it'll always be at the safer, lighter end of the music spectrum - just like commercial radio was in the 90s and 00s anyway. You might already hear The Prodigy and Radiohead on Fearne Cotton's Sounds of the 90s on a Saturday night, but not so likely on a Monday morning.

Radio 2 Playlist 2022
They have to be careful about not losing older listeners though. And if they're already getting it right at the moment why change it.

Radio 2 Playlist 2022
Yeah I think they're already getting it right at the moment music wise. Aside from the playlist, they already play fewer tracks from the 60s and 70s during daytime. I'm a 35 year old listener and I'd be disappointed if they stopped supporting legacy acts, especially as acts like Duran Duran, Diana Ross and Rod Stewart are still putting out bops!

Heart FM Playlist 2022
Yeah, I could understand it if the songs that they did play were all genuine monster hits, but what are they doing still playing "Sweet Talker"? And the Lost Frequencies track isn't super Heart-friendly. I get that their listeners like familiarity and safe songs but I cannot understand why they don't change it up more than they do.

I'm always surprised how little support he gets from Radio 2. Even if all his songs sound the same.

How Kate Bush's Running Up That Hill became a No.1 contender
That's true, but they also keep old songs around longer than they should be as well

Gap Between Single Being Initially Released and Reaching #1
If you wanted to be really pedantic, Wham! doesn't count because Last Christmas wasn't a stand alone single until later on. It was a double-a-side with Everything She Wants originally. So I guess you can say it's the biggest gap for a song/record/track, but not a single. ;)

Friday Chart Predictions
That's debatable though. Some would argue the chart is a promotional tool that benefits the music industry, above everything else. And in order to combine downloads and streams in one chart in the first place you need to set rules in how to measure them, and who's to say how you do that "accurately"? For what it's worth though, I think Kate should have been reset to SCR.
