BBC Radio 2 Playlist

[MadeOfBricks]

In all fairness, Radio One pretty much controls what singles artists release. I remember Jamie T was going to release "Salvador" at one point, but Radio One said it didn't stand a chance of getting playlisted, but they'd play "Sheila" again so they re-released that. It's probably the same case with Paolo, but he's releasing both. It'll probably do better for the album to have the two songs on radio anyway.

Goldfrapps Rocket is still playlisted, thats really great! I cant get enough of that song! Bad it dropped to B but the next single is soon to be released so it doesnt matter that much, and even if it was A-listed it wouldnt help the song on the charts anyway.

It helps the song in the album chart, the most important.

Court Yard Hounds are two of the Dixie Chicks. Rolling Stones is a newly-released (sweary!, obviously edited for play) single taken from a special version of their classic 70's album Exile On Main Street.
Interesting to see veteran rockers FM added.

Great news for Rick Astley and his Take That-ish single! More Frapp support, Fyfe gets the airplay AFTER the sales and Mumford and Sons get their first Radio 2 "hit"!

[Vindrag]

Glad to see Goldfrapp on the B-list, but they really need some support from Radio 1 which they obviously wont get at all.. Still!
