Some great choices there but you can understand why they don't get played much if at all.
Many of them were very minor hits and are long forgotten.
Example: 'Atomic City' by Holly Johnson, weakish third single follow up to the much more radio friendly 'Love Train' and 'Americanos'. Got to Number 18 but then sank like a stone.
Jane Child- one hit wonder with no artist profile.
The Christians- one of their smaller hits, one of their better songs though.
Neneh Cherry- again other songs much more likely to be chosen.
Deacon Blue - Wages Day
Deacon Blue - Chocolate Girl
Deacon Blue - Dignity
Chocolate Girl, in particular, is very radio friendly.
All of these feature regularly on UTV's 107.7 The Wolf - not forgettinng fergus Sings The Blus and the fantastic Real Gone Kid.
I'd love to hear more:
Nick Straker Band - Walk in the Park
Liquid Gold - Dance Yourself Dizzy
Break Machine - Street Dance
Charlene - Never Been To Me (always brings a tear to my eye!)
Dan Hartman - Relight My Fire
Dusty Springfield - In Private
London Beat - I've been thinking about you
Midge Ure - If I Was
Spagna - Call Me
Oh, and Joey, can we have Hylda Baker & Arthur Mullard's version of You're The One That I Want on Club Classics please LOL?!?!:D
Some great tracks on this thread and it makes you realise listeners are more important than computers in choosing music.
One of my great favourite tracks is Santana - Smooth (feat. Rob Thomas)
Anyone remember Snowblower by B Baker Chocolate Company
Steps from Beyond Paul Brookes
Why Can't We Live Together. Timmy Thomas
What a difference a day makes - Esther Phillips
Swing Out Sister - Breakout
Eiffel 65 - Blue
ABC - "When Smokey Sings
Shakatak - Out Of This World
Python Lee Jackson In A Broken Dream
I Know You're Out There Somewhere The Moody Blues
Owner Of A Lonely Heart Yes
Frankenstein - The Edgar Winter Group
You've got to realize that the odds of something like this happening now are slim to none. Chernobyl happened because of sheer stupidity. The reactor was removed from it's coolant. You NEVER, under ANY circumstance remove a LIVE reactor from the coolant.
More than half of France is powered by nuclear energy and you don't see them blowing up. What's more, when a plant goes down, there's no giant mushroom cloud like a bomb. Nuclear energy is the only clean energy we can use.

Carlos played that on Smooth Radio's 70's at 7 last week.
It also pops up on Mellow Magic occasionally.
