seems Meja "All About The Money" was snubbed too by both Radio 1 and Radio 2, although it was in the 40s on the airplay chart. MTV supported it so it helped too.

It would've fit well though, considering R1 were A-list The Corrs, The Cardigans, Lighthouse Family, Savage Garden, etc. Maybe they were seen as too "old"?

@gooddelta @Steve201 I went back all the way to August and it seems "I Dont Want To Miss A Thing" was snubbed on Radio 1. At least on the official playlists anyway. Which is odd. Back then there was quite a bit of an overlap between Radio 1 and Radio 2

I forgot Tom Jones also returned in 2006 with Chicane in "Stoned In Love"

Tom Jones got in the playlist in 2000 Edit: probably Paul McCartney with the Rihanna colab

Actually from the playlists it seems All Or Nothing got more support than Strong Enough, at least it made the B-list

Radio 1 A-listed both at the same time (although sharing the airtime), but this exact week I posted, they dropped "You Don't Care About Us"

"Strong Enough" was C-listed "All Or Nothing" was B-listed Neither lasted that long on the playlist

Babylon is the only decent one with good lyrics

of course Babylon being the best song will be the Taylor song excluded from the chart

The charts were much faster back then so they needed a lot of songs on the playlist and with a fast turnover

You Rock My World was A-listed the following week It was also the most played on MTV and VH1, plus support from Radio 2 (Kylie was snubbed there).
