This morning on Heart (London) they played :
9.45 am - "Summer Nights" Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta.
9.55 am - "Summer Nights" Olivia Newton-John and John Tavolta.
Both times, the end was cut off (when the slow part starts)
WTF ?? THE SAME SONG PLAYED TWICE ??
:mad::mad:
This is not the first time this has happened.

    Your posts are getting very boring and very repetitive.

    Nobody cares.

    Can a moderator move this highly annoying thread into the other annoying heart bashing thread?

    Sadly it's yet another sad attempt to bash.

    No, it's not the first time is it?

    You've been caught lying before.

    Quite pathetic. :rolleyes:

    Don't worry, I'm sure he is doing it on purpose so we moan at him. Either that or he hasn't got the balls to re-tune the bloody radio at work. Try a different station each week??

    In Birkenhead are you listening to Heart 97.1 or Heart on DAB? (I think it may be DAB purely because the 97.1 signal is so awful in Birkenhead!)

    The North West DAB version replaces adverts with a track, or it did last time I listened. It could be that the break filler track was Summer Nights. In that case it's quite possible that the same track was heard twice within minutes.

    That's it explained, and 97.1 is a bit patchy north of the Storeton transmitter in parts of Birkenhead, Wallasey & New Brighton, yet it's really strong to the south parts of the Wirral.

    No, Heart do it all the time on DAB.

    Is the music policy the same on the London Heart to other Hearts? It always sounds really naff on digital but the local shows on FM seem to play, pardon the pun, more music variety. ;) Is this to keep Ofcom happy with the old station formats? I've noticed it here (103.4) as well as in Somerset, Bristol and East Anglia.

    "Summer Nights" was not played on London\s Heart - or any Heart - today.

    Why would "Summer Nights" be played next to Christmas songs anyway??!!

    Andy Birkenhead has previous when it comes to making up nonsense on DS.

    Andy Birkenhead - why do you take the views of the morons on this forum so seriously? They are the idiots - not you.

    Heart have commercial break fillers on their DAB services outside of London, including the track that you heard (twice). I too have heard them do this - but that would make me a liar as well.

    It's not that I'm taking them seriously. It really annoys me that I am simply posting what I heard this morning and they are saying that I didn't hear it.

    Goodness me. You listen to Heart? :eek:

    I thought you thought you were far too good to listen to mere "moronic" commercial radio? :rolleyes:

    On the couple of occasions (and only a couple) that I heard Heart, yes!

    As for moronic commercial radio, I still wouldn't be listening to your shows on the commercial stations in the north-east of Scotland that you're on. It's not because I think of you as a bad presenter but because I think you could be in a better place.;)

    I stand by Andy - and the post from yourself (and a few others) really does not surprise me in the slightest.

    You didn't hear it - that's what is annoying.

    Just like you didn't hear the song you claimed you heard on Heart last week - remember?

    Someone on here actually downloaded an MP3, someone else proved the playlist, and a third person downloaded the information RadioMonitor.

    They proved you to be a liar.

    You're obviously hearing things - but not on Heart. :rolleyes:

    He listens to a radio station he doesn't like. He's silly end of.

    Lots like the Heart station so it has a reason to exist.

    Errr, I'm not in Scotland - north-east or otherwise.

    I've been to Aberdeen - but only once. It was too cold.

    You must have me mixed up with someone else. :eek:

    And, yes, I am in a much better place. ;)

    I find it sad that someone reports hearing the same track repeated within a short space of time and they're called a liar.Do those calling him a liar spend all day listening to every single outlet for Heart,if not what evidence is there to substantiate such a vexatious statement.If you're basing it on a log lifted from a computer everyone knows they're not infallable.
