I quite enjoyed Clubland before. They played Cascada, Vengaboys, Ace Of Base, Azuro ft Elly, Aquagen and Sak Noel.
Ace of Base - The Sign (had more than just that ONE song) Vengaboys - Boom Boom Boom (again more than ONE song) and the fairly obvious Gala Freed from Desire (she had a follow up which never sees the light of day) one more i'll add to this remember T-Spoon Sex on the Beach? (that gets played as always) yet they had Tom's Party yet I have never seen that played! Come on tell me why is it those tracks they stick too and not others? (not you personally but it utterly baffles me the ARCHIVE is there USE IT! - MTV/Bauer) |

The Vault had a selection of Aqua's videos earlier. Nice to see a change from endless repeats of crappy countdowns. |

Bet(mtv) Fail
Just found this out supposedly the producer of "106 and Park" on BET network has been suspended on making a "Blue Ivy" joke ..... Beyonce is reportedly not amused
![]() http://www.nydailynews.com/entertain...icle-1.1919015 So from a channel that gave her an award the night before they manage to roll out a "joke" the next day on its sister station? Wow who at MTV/BET/Viacom controls these stations? (not a Beyonce fan) but this one you can definately call an #MTVFAIL

Vengaboys the songs you listed except boom boom have never seen light of day Aqua - Dr Jones/Barbie Girl (aired on Heat TV recently) ... something far wrong here! Definately seems very selective play going on here or just ashamed to play the other tracks

Asking a bit much for them to play some decent 90's music. When did that last happen?
Always the cheese getting played. The Hits use to offer great variety on there Classic hits weekends. That was the days when you felt they put some effort in. These days it seems a constant loop of the same chart singles. |

Well I mean 90's poo still seems cheesy these days. There's some good 90's indie and Brit pop and dance even R&B.

Where's Captain Jack, DJ Bobo, Betty Boo, Passion Fruit, BWO, Alphabeat, A* Teens, Mika, Hermes House Band, Scissor Sisters, Robbie Williams (old stuff), Take That (old stuff)? I have a few playlists on YouTube where I've separated Dance, 90s & 00s Music (mainly cheesy pop), a music mix mainly full of rock and metal and other music full of modern videos I like that never get played. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...ec3TFjxVJqJU_Z |

I wonder if similar to Clubland if the viewers had more control would we see more half decent tracks on or back to square 1?
I'll add this - I heard Ottawan - D.I.S.C.O on BBC Radio 2 (this song use to always get played on VH1/VH1 Classic), was thinking to myself today I ain't seen that video been played on VH1 in ages (yet they always played it on their disco nights - not the ones they buggered up) again the good old days where these songs got you going and you could take a bit of a laugh at what was worn back then - now if songs like this get played they just speak about more of what was worn then and how "shameful" it is. I'll add this and we mentioned this a while ago but it too got me thinking when VH1 use to play Gary Glitter and how quick they got rid of him of his playlists yet stars of today seems to be do wrong we keep you on play (surely they should be reviewing artists and say temporary abandon airplay until such time ie court case then resume? I just find that is also strange!) I think Vintage play that? Chris Brown and the like are considered so bad that they are good to put on TV. He's basically a thug who should never see the light of day. Quote:

You can't expect them to play random top 40 hits from 20 years ago that only a handful of people remember. People will not watch. They have to play safe, just the same as commercial radio. 99 people out of 100 who remember "Sex On The Beach" would not remember "Tom's Party".
Clubland play random tunes from 20 years ago and the results aren't any different to when they play current tracks. I think if channels advertised in their programme listings that it's going to be a real case of 'remember these?' it may get some interest. Quote:
They don't even play the proper cheesy stuff, it's now all the same mainstream pop from 1998-2004 and everyone else gets left out. There's loads of cheesy and non-cheesy pop they could play from the 90s and 00s that would probably be great o certain channels.

I've just seen the most bizarre Euphoric/EDM anthem on Clubland
Britney - Everytime - Above and Beyond Mix - Britney sings three sentences in the whole mix and the tune sounds absolutely nothing like the song - it was like a totally different tune/song - I don't mind mixes, but it wasn't even related to the original other than the three "and this song's my sorry' in over 3 minutes of music - totally bizarre. Funny error from MTV Classic yesterday - Annie Lennox - Sweet Dreams in "Summer of 2009" |

How the hell can you make such an error like that? Mind you not long ago VH1 had said Sub Sub - Aint no love was released in 2006 (before they got rid of the year), shows you since removing the "year" from songs they got no real clue in what they play and obviously thinking no one would spot errors - just give it up
Maybe they were thinking Pro Green but even that must have been 2010/11? |

But as you say thats a different artist - how can you list a song from 2006 that came out in the 90's? Did someone delete the year and thought oh well put a random year no one will notice? It seemed like that to me and yet the wonderful people have GOOGLE at their fingertips to CORRECT errors but of course thats not their aim really?
That 'Britney' song is on Clubland againin the same chart position as yesterday, played after a song that was in the same chart position yesterday and before a song that is in the same position as yesterday, yet it's todays top 25 chosen on the app. They really think we are all stoned

It's obviously just an error, but they seem to make a lot of errors unfortunately.

I'll add I noted a few weeks ago (if I have mentioned apologies) that MTV Dance played Gusto Discos Revenge (90's original - not Freemasons edit) but played it at 10pm! Why can they not play these during the day? Its a dance channel FFS and that is DANCE! |
