Looks like Radio 2 are doing the same as Radio 1 this year in terms of a 'sleigh list' but no songs on the playlist itself - I can't remember if they had this last year? They are still listing the wrong Rag'n'Bone Man track but they've been playing Time To Love all week so I've left it on there. Apologies but I missed CMAT off the additions last week!

Radio 2 Playlist: 06/12/25 A List: Bastille - Save My Soul [A-A-A] Ella Eyre - hell yeah [B-A-A-A-A] Jessie J - H.A.P.P.Y [A-A-A-A-A-A] Katy Perry - bandaids [A-A-A-A-A] Lewis Capaldi - The Day That I Die [A-A-A-A] Meghan Trainor - Still Don't Care [A-A-A] * Olivia Dean - Tracks from The Art Of Loving [A] Remember Monday - More Than Ever [B-B-A-A] * Shakira - Zoo [A] Westlife - Chariot [A-A-A-A-A-A-A] B List: BOYZLIFE - Lovebirds [B-B] Charlie Puth - Changes [B-B-B-B-B] CMAT - Ready [B-B] Miley Cyrus - Dream As One (from Avatar: Fire and Ash) [B-B-B-B] Nathan Evans x SAINT PHNX - Milarrochy Bay [B-B-B-B] Rag'n'Bone Man - Time To Love [B-B-B-B] * Richard Ashcroft - Heavy News [B] Rita Ora - All Natural [C-C-B-B] Sienna Spiro - Die On This Hill [B-B] The Lottery Winners - Your Last Song [B-B] C List: Amy Macdonald - I'm Done (Games That You Play) [C-C-C-C] Andy Bell & Tim Rice-Oxley - The Chance Won't Come Again [C-C] Charlotte OC - Cider and Black [C-C] Cynthia Erivo & Ariana Grande - For Good [C-C] MT Jones - Gentle Reminder [C-C-C] Record of the Week: Jonas Brothers - Coming Home This Christmas Album of the Week: Various Artists - Wicked: For Good - The Soundtrack Sleigh List: Bryan Adams & Friends - California Christmas Gwen Stefani - Shake The Snow Globe Jonas Brothers - Coming Home This Christmas (From "A Very Jonas Christmas Movie") Kylie - X.M.A.S Perrie - Christmas Magic (BBC Radio 2 Piano Room) Out: Bon Jovi (with Robbie Williams) - We Made It Look Easy [A-A-A-A] Olivia Dean - So Easy (To Fall In Love) [A-A-A-A-A-A] JADE - Before You Break My Heart [C-C-B-B]

Same as on radio 1 when they play it on anthems (which seems to be pretty frequently!)

Ahh, I think Sweet Talker is a great album! There’s a couple of duds on there but generally I think it’s very cohesive. ‘Masterpiece’ is also the best song she’s ever made

So Jorja Smith’s record label have had their say on it: https://www.instagram.com/p/DRm-uVXiKf-/?igsh=MWUwMGxhcXRxYW1xeQ== I can’t see that this controversy is going to go away particularly quickly!

The ROTW is usually a track added to the playlist that week. Last year they had a Michael Buble Christmas song as ROTW that didn't end up on the playlist. I guess we'll have to wait and see for next week

Fresh playlist today! Good to see movement for both Remember Monday and Rita Ora. I'm surprised that For Good has only debuted on the C-List, feels like it should be higher than that. The Charlotte OC track is also amazingly brilliant so I hope that moves up - almost sounds like a Bond theme! I have no idea what's happening with the Rag N Bone Man tracks. On the website they are now listing Put A Little Hurt On Me but that was an album track from last year and isn't listed as a new entry so I'm guessing that's a mistake. Seems like they're not going to be adding Christmas songs again this year as I would have thought it would happen today if they were going to (especially with Kylie being record of the week).

Absolutely love this! It won’t do anything but I hope it gets some radio support!

I think the Tune of the Weekend might be Tate McRae. Good to see Fred Again moving up and the adds for Robyn and Inhaler.

For anybody interested, the Official Chart of the Year will be happening this year on Boxing Day from 2-6pm. It is with Dan Draper this year who I think is a new name to the chart.

Have Turnstile already been on it? I feel like they’ll be favourites if not?
