    It's not weird for them but it is weird. It's extremely unhelpful that they play a song for a few weeks and just as it starts to be having an effect, they drop it. If they stuck with some of the songs for longer they could really give certain artists a real boost.

    Precious in 1999. Loreen probably got as many plays in the week after winning as a C-list song but no wasn't officially added.
  4. A fairly close one - Wet Wet Wet at 1 and All-4-One at 5 in 1994
  5. I like that some artists with big fanbases are starting to release singles again - have recently bought "Blinding Lights". And I had been buying a handful of big hits on CD single from Amazon Germany though that market is drying up too now. Last one I got from them was Ava Max's "Torn". There's actually a guy on eBay who does very good quality bootlegs - I just bought "Higher Love", "Dance Monkey" and "Sweet But Psycho" from there, but quite expensive so won't be doing that too often. Last new CD single I bought in a shop was probably Stereo Kicks off X Factor - they were selling them in BHS! Last cassette? Probably Rosie Ribbons "Blink" in 2002!
  6. My Marianne is Molly's middle names. I guess it was her own decision.

  8. Vanessa Amorosi - The Blacklisted Collection - digital album out tomorrow
  9. Wow Uninvited at number 8. Should've been a proper single - her best song by a mile.
  10. Haven't heard Perfect in a while and it's giving me the feels. An all-time classic.

    That's the dealer price not the retail price

    Why is the Radio 2 playlist always so flipping amazing? If only the Spotify and Apple Music playlists were more like it.
  15. "Backfire" by Dotter is out tomorrow (single)
  16. Divina De Campo - Gratify single out June 26th according to interview on Lorraine

    It is so frustrating when artists like him can score a hit or two, but once they're no longer flavour of the month their support just falls away to nothing.

    Disappointed the latest JP Cooper "Little Bit Of Love" isn't getting any radio love. It's the best thing he's done in a while.
  19. I think it is actually a studio recording but yes it is an old one, and it's a similar vocal arrangement to when he did it on the show
  20. He was on GMB this morning, the single is for NHS, and you only need to sell the square root of bugger all to get to number 1 now
  21. There's a decent chance it will be on Big Top 40 - Katrina & The Waves for instance sneaked into the chart a couple weeks ago the day after the Eurovision specials
  22. Is Daði in any of the main playlists?
  23. The songs from Frozen

    Very minor thing, but does anyone know what the reason for the lack of punctuation is in the biographies? It'll say something like "XXX born in London on January 28th 1975 he first came to prominence..." I'm guessing there must be some technical reason for it?
