I feel like this info shouldn’t take 6 months to be released

yessssssss! don’t know any of these songs - give me some goddamn points punkx

Coldplay still get played that much. Fuck me.

had to listen to all of these as my folks have radio 2 or heart on all the time. One Kiss is the only one I got any mild enjoyment from.

I can honestly forgive Lewis Capaldi any shit music he makes because he is such a GBOL :smiley:

I know all these as my kids listen to Radio 1 in the car. If you don’t know Shotgun you should definitely go and listen to it, I don’t see why I should have to suffer while you carry on oblivious.

In other chart news, Sheeran and Bieber have combined to create a chart bothering monstrosity that will be number one all year. It’s absolutely nothing, completely unmemorable in every way. The aural equivalent of trying to hear mist.

Had no idea Pink was still a going concern

Just a relief to all concerned to not see Bruno Mars on that list. The British people have had enough punishment.

Bruno Mars has some bangers m9.

I know the ezra one and the dua lipa one. I’d guess I’d recognise some of the others if you played them to me

I know all of these songs, because I drive a car with a local radio station playing, which plays this kinda stuff on a loop.

WALK ME HOME IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT!
Currently selling outb stadiums around the UK.

Not my cup of Lapsong* but fair play to her for still going strong.

(although I do like it in Bodypump when they have a lusty Pink anthem maybe for the chest track or squats).

Well if he does they never make it to the playlists of Magic FM, let’s put it that way. Execrable.

In spite of this I still contend that pop music is in a much better state than it was 20 years ago. I don’t mind when Radio 1 gets put on music-wise, it’s the banal hollering of the presenters which means I have to sack it off after a while. (I now understand my Dad’s strident objection to Chris Evans when I was a kid)

Masochism is surely reserved for the Thursday filth thread?

Nah, there’s a reason this stuff sells records. Kids love it, and I like listening to it with my kid.

used to really like this portugal the man song in…2011. Had no idea they were even still going, let alone popular!

Mates of mine are metallers and as such their kids have been mad on doom and big riffage since their early days.

He is, I like him, but his music and that song in particular is insufferable. It’s just vowel sounds stretched out to sound sincere.

Sia’s done well for herself hasn’t she

That Sheeran x Bieber song was on the other day and my mum was like “oooo it’s Ed”" (she loves Ed and wanted me to marry him) “oh wait no, is it Shawn Mendes, Lauren?”

Before I could stop myself I heard myself say “I don’t know mum, they all sound the same to me”

I’m officially a nana :older_woman:

Can only recognise one for sure (One Kiss) but I reckon I’d probably recognise most of them

I don’t know who Shawn Mendes is :man_shrugging:t2:

Yeah these are the two I know. Don’t mind the Pink one, bit surprised by its ubiquity though. George Ezra sounds like the club singer from Shooting Stars.
