DarkAngelMJH 12 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 If it's what people want to hear Alan and judging by the 10 minute takeover some people do, then why shouldn't R1 play any? Quote I am Burdened with Glorious Purpose - Loki Laufeyson Link to post Share on other sites
Viv 14 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 NONE until the twelfth day before xmas !R1 shouldn't lower it's self to the commercial crap stations !I think R1 actually did stuff v. late last year, as I recall. That said, it's beginning to be Xmas choon overload this year now, with the radio and all the shops beginning to feel very harassing. Much be really annoying being a sales assistant.

cxx666 10 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 NONE until the twelfth day before xmas !Forget the twelfth day before xmas, just end it at "NONE"The only 2 I have any time for are Don't Let The Bells End (Darkness) because I find it quite funny, and Merry Christmas Everybody (Noel Gallagher version only) because I think he covers ir pretty well. I hate having to listen to any of the others. Quote Not impressed with censorship Link to post Share on other sites

cxx666 10 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Yep, I just try and block out those particular songs when they come on. Fortunately half my shift is done when the shop is closed so we put R1 over the tannoy instead Quote Not impressed with censorship Link to post Share on other sites
Viv 14 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Thought so. I just noticed for the first time today how harassing these choons actually are, and how it just goes on a loop...

DarkAngelMJH 12 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 It's not too early anymore, it's December. Shops start putting stuff out in September which is far too early.They aren't played all year round as they are festive songs, hence them being played when the season they are singing about is near.
