Awesome! Normally I'm not sure about the Records of the Week on the first day and then they grow on me later on. But this one actually made me dance now.

This can Duck Off... nah I don't mind it, probably a grower for me. Viv, you're gonna wreck something with all that hate for this, but at least we know where to send the Bill*...

Er.... I am perfectly entitled not to like something!! If you want a bunch of lies, I guess I'm probably not the person to approach!! (honk, honk).

Seriously, play a little "trying to be catchy" song, throw in the words "Barbara Streisand", and expect me to be impressed. F*** off.

I would go as far as to say it's actually a bloody insult to a great lady.

O, and they couldn't even be bothered to make a video?! Well, it really is ALL. TOO. MUCH.

Oh god yeah didn't realise I'd heard that til Moyles played it this morning...

On the plus side Moyles played Marina and the Diamonds and Ke$ha (Tik Tok... I think) VS Katy Perry (Teenage Dreams or California Girls, they sound so similar to each other to me) this morning, that was good.

Anything can go on a playlist these days... Simply anything, you know.

Where did standards go. :-(

Well, I suppose it's whatever's selling well. There's a ton of new stuff that comes out that doesn't get played.

I could be wrong, but I thought the playlist is originally made up of songs before they are actually released on sale. I agree though, it's awful how much is released that we don't hear on Radio 1's seriously limited playlist.

Anyhow as to the song. It's pure crap, camp gay disco stuff. If it hadn't been 'Barbara Streisand', it would've been 'Judy Garland'. I think it's fun and would shake my tail feather to it. Wouldn't go so far as to buy it though.

PS Sorry Tyler, but I do agree with Tom that you could probably have done a bit more with the duck puns. There must be masses. 'Water off a duck's back' etc.

I can hear it now with 'Judy Garland' on it instead. Love it!I also think it would work well with Bette Midler and Dolly Parton

Er.... what?! :|

You've done well with the thread, Tyler!! As least you made the effort, which is the main thing!!

BTW, I heard Scott say it's a tribute to Streisand, but it's a poor tribute.

Oh God. I might have known. :|

I've decided this song may be fun if you're drunk..... either that, or it may make you wish to throw yourself out a window. :0-/

That would depend on your disposition... someone of your happy character would find it fun while drunk I guess :P

    • There's been a lot of positive reaction to the Mylo and Rosie news so am interested now to hear what their shows are like. And yep wouldn't be surprised if they stay on beyond July as cover ever so often. And that Friday-Sunday news was hidden in the small print a little. It presumably means we lose Party Anthems all that month as that is what has happened this year with Big Weekend, Glasto for example. I certainly I hope it isn't Party Anthems being quietly axed full stop - it and Future Pop are 2 real hidden gems on Radio 1. 
    • I’m pleased for Mylo and Rosie, they were highly thought of in our local area and definitely worthy of that slot 
    • I’m thinking the same redding and Leeds etc 
    • -Considering how little Jamie has appeared since Vick went off on maternity, it probably would've been more sensible to have Sam & Danni taking over from that point and have him return with Katie. - Mylo and Rosie are apparently very good and one of the more popular local presenters who lost their slot when Hits went fully national. I gather they are very popular in Yorkshire. I can see them definitely see them popping up again beyond this stint. -Life Hacks cover is yet another good opportunity for some new voices (I know Yinka has popped up in the past). I have enjoyed Pete Allison covering though. I'm assuming most of August's Friday to Sunday 1-4pm will be made up of festival coverage.
    • - Jamie Laing will take a break from Going Home from 28th July. Sam and Danni will cover. - Greg James will host his show until 11am from 21st July (Monday to Thursday only). - Mylo and Rosie, who previously hosted Hits Radio Breakfast in West Yorkshire, will host Friday EB in July. - Charley Marlowe of TikTok fame will host Friday EB in August. - Tskenya Frazer will host Life Hacks with Lauren Layfield in July, whilst Yinka Bikinni will host with Lauren in August. - Jamie Laing and Katie Thistleton will return to Going Home in September.
