Yes it's your resident R1 hater here...
Well, today on Fearne Cotton's show (idiot) she did her weekly or daily live lounge vote, where random live lounges from the past are pulled out at random and listeners have to vote on which one out of three they want to hear.
So today we had Lily Allen, Katy B (wannabe dubstep female G etc) and Noel doing DLBIA, the vote percentage came in and Noel won by probably the highest margin ever seen on the live lounge vote 78%
So i'm thinking great, but why do you still refuse to play his new songs you tossers? There is 78% population of your listeners that have just voted to hear him over 2 much more "current" and younger artists that are all over your station.
So yeah, the youngsters really dig him, can they not get the message?
Anyway, rant over i just needed to vent........innit

Also, he has won every live lounge vote he has ever been in, and everytime they do the big 5 entertainment news there is always an X factor related story with Noel, where they proceed to say how "amazing" he is........play AKA what a life then you fucking fickle, dull robotic bastards ^^^^ see not good for my health

They still play RHCP's new stuff
Oasis were Radio 1 material. If either DGSS or HFB had been Oasis albums every single would have been A-listed
Apparently they have rules about putting artists over 40 on the playlist. Which is absurd. I can understand it as a general guideline. But as a Noel fan I wish they'd bend the rules for Noel considering his history with Radio 1
It's hilarious that Noel was one of their Radio icons 2006 and 5 years later they won't even consider playing his tunes.
But from the bit of Zane Lowe that I listened to before that Noel interview I am not sure he'd fit in anyways.

I disagree with the 'no over-40 rule' full stop, as it proves radio 1 dont care about the music, just the product (big fake boobed x-factor wannabees etc)
The annoying thing is that im in the age group that Radio 1 aim at, but id rather listen to 44 year old Noely G over anything else in the charts

Yeah i agree with you about it being under the Oasis moniker, i mean A Keidis is about 48 right? And Dave Grohl not far off Noel, it is ridiculous considering they had to announce his No.1 album on sunday.......i loved that. Also, it might be worth noting, Zane Lowe has his masterpieces week this week, he plays a masterpiece alboom every night, DM is on thursday, Noel is getting so much exposure on there either direct or indirect, you would think they would b-list WAL given that it is up tempo and quite contemporary. But they won't, because they can't help themselves

So even Falling Down got airplay then? i mean i can see how TSOTL would fit in well, even IOT cos it's a nice ballad but if FD made it too somehow, then there's obviously some rules they abide by. Oasis was one of the biggest bands in the world, and from what i know, in England they were top dog. NGHFB's however has done well as an album so maybe in good time, it may make its way on to radio 1 ? im just thinking out loud here. btw i forgot to ask, did Beady Eye receive any airplay?

But they won't, because they can't help themselves I like it that they have had to play his top 40 single several times because it just won't die. According to deasy it's already the best selling Gallagher-related single since TIOBI and it's not done yet If he could have gotten some love off Radio 1 for that single it could have done so much better though. I wonder how high Noel would have to chart without support to get them to reconsider?

Nah, got the first official play of TR, never heard anything of BDI again, i can understand that though cos their sound is very retro, WAL could easily sit in their A-list. Plus Noel's tunes a far superior to BDI's in my opinion.... Dont want to upset anyone but i just think they are miles ahead. And Keidis 50? Wow

Not sure, but he definitely would have been top 10 if they A-listed it, they have so much power on the charts here, maybe he would have got top 5?

Flea is a real nutjob, you've got to love him "I love, I love, I love, killer whales, and I love mangos, and Iggy Pop too, I love Iggy Pop, and eating, getting up in the morning, and going swimming, and taking a good shit, and I love all of you too!" That concert was pure madness

I suggest you go have a shower, crouch into a ball in the shower for 30 mins and think about what you have just said, come out all wrinkly and clean, and analyze your statement.

Fearne Cotton is a stupid vagina.
Radio 1 is an evil organisation that needs to be destroyed.
That is all
