As far as I'm aware, "Hollywood" was officially the first release from the current album. I understand that she released "Mowgli's Road" as a bit of a taster at the end of last year, along with "Obsessions" and "I Am Not A Robot" having been released before in some form (of course IANAR features on the album and as the next single) but, technically speaking, this is going to be her third release from the album.

I don't know whether it's safe to say that "Shampain" will definitely be the third single yet. Still some time to go.

Quite excited to see Scouting for Girls and Plan B heading the charts. It's been a long time since anything vaguely indie or alternative was even in the top ten.

Hockey are one of the best acts of the year, for me!

I apologise that a couple of recurrents have crept in there...! Not completely accurate - but still a good feel to the list. Probably the likes of Editors, Doves, Cribs should certainly be higher up...

Please note that due to a change in playout system in the summer, some songs may not have been "scrobbled" as many times as they were played.

Haha. I think that was my fault because it's actually The Pussycat Dolls, isn't it?! I've edited it now.

Hi again, folks. So, after a couple of weeks off on the Fresh Radio playlist, due to a system upgrade which meant that nothing from the playout/scheduling/internet software could function properly, we are back on with the Fresh Radio playlist. it's hard to distinguish between what's old and new at the moment, but enjoy nonetheless!

Hi, guys. If you're trying to tune into Fresh Radio in Yorkshire (I think?) then that's a completely different station, which would explain the oddities!

I'll put a stake on now - definite number one.

Oh, by the way, Fresh Radio now publish a chart which compares their playlist with all the other radio stations' playlists. I could copy and paste that in if you're interested? It basically shows all their playlisted songs and then has a few columns showing whether Radio 1, Capital, Absolute, Kerrang and KISS play those songs...

I love VV Brown. Great to see her being playlisted. Let's hope both she and Florence do indeed get big hits this time round.

It'll probably be on next week or the one after, at a guess...

She was removed this week...

In fairness, Radio 1 still haven't playlisted "Jackie Collins". The Manics' tune comes out in a few weeks and they haven't been far behind anyone else. This playlist is the hottest and freshest out there, in my opinion.

I'll try and correct that!
