Give us your love song!

Reckon you could do better than the team at expressing your love for them lyrically? I'm aware it's not that hard, after hearing Scott's futile efforts, but I reckon the more arty members here should still give it a go.

Song choice is up to you, but the cringier the better!

Less Than Three

Scott Dammit, why won't you swing my way?

Scott Dammit, why won't you swing my way?

It's such a shame

I promise you I'll try to change

I don't know if it'll be enough

Although..

Scott I love you

Scott I love you

I love everything

Scott I love you

Scott I love you

I love how orange you are, like an Oompa Loompa

I love how white your teeth are.

They're so bright, they'd be my light in the dark.

Scott Dammit, why don't you swing my way?

Why should I set my self up for you?

I always get let down.

At least if you don't swing this way

I'll know it's not my fault.

Scott I love you

Why can't you swing my way?

:D

I'm apologising in advance :oops:

The song is to the music of the Commodores Three times a lady.

june's version Three times a DJ

Thanks for the shows that you've given me,

I listen while eating my tea

and if I miss one, I go to the podcast

or unofficialmills.co.uk.

You're once twice three times a DJ

and I love the remixes

You're once twice three times a DJ

and I love your brass

I love your brass.

You gave people dreams(RAOK)

shared joys and pains

you made my radio worth listening to.

And if I had the choice

and didn't have to work

I'd spend the whole day listening to you.

When the four of you are on

the moments I cherish

prank calls, flirt divert

badly bleeped tveeeee.

To hear you, to see you

to know you, to jeer you

there's nothing to keep us apart

(apart from dodgy internet)

You're once twice three times a DJ

You should've got gold

Yes you're once twice three times a DJ

You should've got gold

You're once twice three times a DJ

and I love you

I love youuuuuuu.

Ahem, okay, so here's my song about Beccy, it's a bit rubbish and is to be sung to the tune of You're Beautiful by James Blunt. I lose the will to rhyme half way through:

Beccy you’re brilliant.

Beccy you’re brilliant

Your laugh is great

You’re new to the show

and you love cake.

You often read the classifieds,

look for lottery tickets

I’m not yet that aware of

Your opinion on cricket

You’re really cool

You’re really cool

You’re really cool, it’s true

You work with Scott, we like you a lot

Beccy, it’s certainly true,

Unofficial Mills loves you.

Yes you caught our ear,

on your show premiere.

We listen just for you

Not that Mancunian prick

and I hope that you’ll stick around

because your one liners

are better than Chappers’.

You’re really cool

You’re really cool

You’re really cool, it’s true

You work with Scott, we like you a lot

Beccy, it’s certainly true,

Unofficial Mills loves you.

[instrumental]

You’re really cool

You’re really cool

You’re really cool, it’s true

There must be a Radio One boss with a smile on their face

when they thought up that we should listen to you.

Yes it’s time to face the truth,

Unofficial Mills love you.

No Calls (to the tune of "No Scrubs" by TLC)

(Note: A "telcan" is a term to refer to a telecanvasser - just in case you didn't know :) And I know that they can also be female - it just worked out better for the filk this way...)

A telcan's a guy who sits by a phone

And tries to sell crap to the public

Always sayin' what you should want

He just talks from his... from his... from his... from his...

So...

No I don't want your windows

No - you ain't havin' money of mine

No I don't wanna buy timeshare

No - please stop wasting my time

[CHORUS]

I don't want no calls

A telcan's a guy who can't get no cash from me

Got my number offa his list

He's making me pissed

Trying his spiel on me

I don't want no calls

A telcan's a guy who can't get no cash from me

Got my number offa his list

He's making me pissed

Trying his spiel on me

But a telcan's ringing me

And he's selling really hard

But there's no way I'll buy what he's offering

This guy must be a scrub, 'cause he got me out the tub

Ain't buying from no deadbeat (deadbeat)

So...

No I don't want your windows

No - you ain't havin' money of mine

No I don't wanna buy timeshare

No - please stop wasting my time

[CHORUS]

Now listen to me here when I'm talking

Oh yes son I'm talking to you

This place is a listed building

Oh yes son I'm talking to you

I'm gonna sue for harassment

Oh yes son I'm talking to you

Wanna grab all of my money

Oh no I don't want no

No calls

No calls

No no

No calls

No no no no

No calls

No no (no)

[CHORUS 4 TIMES]

Here's a snippet (to the tune of "I'm In The Mood For Dancing" by The Nolans):

"Scott's in the mood for tanning,

Teeth whitening,

Ooh, he's drinking some wine tonight..."

Bad, yes, I know. Terrible.

Alouette...deployer les ailes;

Alouette...plumerai les ailes.

    • I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right! 
    • Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!
    • Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.
    • If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.
    • The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!
    • What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.
    • Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky as well that day.
    • So the end of weekend afternoons this week - new show is July 1st.
    • Arielle is in for Greg on Monday 27th May.
    • He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard! 
    • The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.  
    • I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly. 
    • Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...
    • Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
