Big Brother theme wasnt playlisted. Hi-Gate's top10 hit earlier in 2000 "Pitchin'" wasnt playlisted either, which is shocking cause Hi-Gate is basically Judge Jules, a famous Radio 1 DJ at the time.

From what I can tell, basically only some push from The Box, it managed 2 weeks on The Box breakers. Radio overall and MTV were not that supportive.

Sash! was surprising considering both Adelante and Just Around The Hill were A-listed that year

songs not supported on Radio 1 around this time: Daphne & Celeste - School's Out Bloodhound Gang - Ballad Of Chasey Lane Baby D - Let Me Be Your Fantasy 2000 Hi-Gate - I Can Hear Voices Madasun - Feel Good Lil Kim - No Matter What They Say Mandy Moore - I Wanna Be With You Point Break - You Bon Jovi - Say It Isn't So Lolly - Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Yomanda - On The Level Rollergirl - Dear Jessie Aaron Carter - I Want Candy French Affair - My Heart Goes Boom Vanessa Amorosi - Absolutely Everybody Sash! - With My Own Eyes

Radio 1 was like "how many dance songs can we fit into our playlist" lol But to be fair, 95% of them were hits.

Time to listen to Sonique "Sky", Lene Marlin "Unforgivable Sinner" and Billie Piper "Something Deep Inside" then

Too bad they arent supporting Madonna/Kylie, was hoping for a C list

Even though it wasnt officially playlisted I do remember hearing Breathe get played quite a bit on R1 back then. Sometimes they just refused to add stuff to the main playlist. Another one I remember getting played often but was never added officially was Mad'House "Like A Prayer".

Definitely more dance than pop imo, not sure it can smash

Other songs not on Radio 1's playlist around this time, but they make a bit more sense Shania Twain - Thank You Baby! Leann Rimes - We Can Scooter - The Night XTM & Dj Chucky - Fly On The Wings Of Love Cheeky Girls - Hooray Hooray Mark Owen - Four Minute Warning Fast Food Rockers - Fast Food Song Stacie Orrico - Stuck Hilary Duff - So Yesterday Layo & Bushwacka - It's Up To You Fabolous - Can't Let Go Delta Goodrem - Lost Without You Joe Budden - Pump It Up Triple 8 - Give Me A Reason D-Side - Invisible S Club 8 - Fool No More Korn - Did My Time Voodoo & Serano - Overload Billy Crawford - Trackin' and like I said before, Blu Cantrell - Breathe

Oddly enough "Breathe" was never added to the Radio 1 playlist even when it hit #1, although it did get played sometimes. Are you talking about the Jaimeson song or the Jason Nevins song as being very Sugababes vocally?
