12 to 12 sounds like a huge hit to me, maybe a future number one……but then again I’m usually wrong about these things!

I’m really liking it. Would be amazing to see it go Top 40 this week.

Yet some of their pointless spin-offs go number 1. When Now 122 gets released, they need to do the right thing and release it on 14th November so it doesn’t clash with Wicked 2. At the same time, Now need to better their tracklists. Now 121 would have more sales if it had a strong tracklist. The only way to save Now albums is by banning streaming platforms and the only ones who have the power to do that is the UK government and before anyone says anything, sales in Now albums took a nosedive after Now 100. That sold 176k and Now 101 sold 82k. Go figure

Alot of people stopped collecting them after 100. I think as long as they sell enough copies to turn a profit they’ll be happy to keep it going.

I don’t think the government will ban Spotify to save a commercial business.

This is literally Somedays part 2 and not as good.

Agree High On Me is far better.

Oasis tour impact will be very big by the looks of it then

Wouldn’t surprise me if Time Flies is Number 1 in the album chart next week with Morning Glory and Definitely Maybe back in the Top 10.

The live version from the London Stadium has been released today along with the radio edit. Help get a few extra sales in. Hope it can stay Top 10 come Friday.

This is very cheesy but not a bad remake for what it is. I can't see it doing anything though.

Liking this much more than Fists to be fair - it's a belter!

Can't say it's done it for me on first listen. Maybe a grower in time perhaps?

July I believe.

Confirmed on their socials this morning.

Sophie Habboo will join Jamie Laing in June to co-host Going Home on Radio 1 (15:30 – 18:00, Monday to Wednesday) starting on Monday 2nd June.


GK Barry will host weekend afternoons in July from 4th July. 


The Sun are reporting that Jamie Laing’s wife Sophie Habboo will co-host Going Home with him through the summer whilst Vick and Kate are on maternity leave.

The Sun

I totally agree with you on that Lewis. I tend to tune in now and then to the decades stations and even then I don't find myself listening too long. The brand is aiming to bring you a mix of familiar well known tracks, mainly targeted to females aged 25-44.

So the Heart brand as a whole set of stations combined (which includes listeners from their decades and Dance station) has more than R2 rather than that main station itself.

Can't say I'm fussed on the new Rihanna track. It may do well on first day curiosity streams, but I can't see it hanging around.

Think it's between Sombr and Calvin Harris for the next Number 1.

Radio 1 are playing Caroline too, so it's the current single.

Would like to see them add Sombr 'Back To Friends' to go alongside 'Undressed' and the new Stereophonics track in the next few weeks.

Fancy non-stop Oasis in the run up to their reunion tour?

How about Radio X Oasis? https://www.radiox.co.uk/artists/oasis/how-to-listen-radioxoasis-station/

I quite like it - sounds good in the morning sunshine. Think it will grow old for me pretty quick for me though.

Surprised its not on insta added on Radio 1's playlist, maybe it wasn't submitted in time for this weeks playlist meeting or they're sitting on it for a week to see how it does.

Album out today and the next single confirmed to be ‘Make It On Your Own’. The video features footage of their Principality Stadium gigs in Cardiff from 2023.

BBC Radio 1 has revealed a first for the Big Weekend 2025, a performance from Radio 1 Anthems acts Sugababes and Natash Bedingfield.

This new addition to the festival is on the back of the Radio 1 Anthems extension which launched on BBC Sounds last November and was provisionally approved by Ofcom last week to launch on DAB+.

The station is for young listeners to discover and re-discover music and artists played by Radio 1 throughout the 2000s and 2010s.

Radio 1’s Big Weekend 2025 takes place in Sefton Park, Liverpool from Friday 23rd May – Sunday 25th May.

Natasha Bedingfield says: “It’s a big deal to be part of Radio 1’s Big Weekend. I can’t wait to jump up on stage and sing my heart out with everyone. Let’s hope some inhibitions get released!”

Sugababes say: “We’re buzzing to be playing Radio 1’s Big Weekend! We’ve heard amazing things about the energy and the crowds, so we’re excited to be part of it this year. Expect a lot of love, big tunes, and a show to remember!”

Aled Haydn Jones, Head of Radio 1, says: “Radio 1’s Big Weekend is about bringing people together through the music they love, and our Radio 1 Anthems artists are a perfect example of that.

“These acts have soundtracked unforgettable moments for our audience and continue to resonate with listeners today – whether they’re rediscovering the songs or discovering them for the first-time.

Was thinking they must have a new single out then before May!

Not necessarily. Coldplay headlined last year before anything from the 'Moon Music' era came out.

According to Amazon, here’s the track list for Now 120, out April 4. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/15sNcvM5Nc/?mibextid=K35XfP

Ohh was not expecting that. Looking forward to hearing the track in full.

Don't forget the Brits on Saturday may have some effect on next weeks charts.
