Someone should do a thread where they go through every track in the list and commentate it.

(Not me)

I’ve probably posted this on here before, but I was subjected to Radio X for an entire working week once. It was wednesday before I heard the first female voice!??? (Cardigans Favourite Game of course)

Yeah, weird choice of a quite understated album track!

Are Radio X responsible for how huge The Courteeners appear to be? I never hear their songs anywhere.

I"ll do it if the full list is anywhere

one of their best imo

First time I’ve heard it.

Was expecting one of the more obvious hits.

I like the Submarine soundtrack so I get the appeal of a more subtle AM track.

Not enough Oasis on that list tbh
