Yet correct me - I am sure there was hardly any errors back in the 90's on these channels - but if there was an error they be an apology (not asking for an apology but more like correct it for next time)
LOL - nah it ain't that, just controllers are drunk at the wheel again ![]() Someone mentioned Betty Boo on this thread - Radio 2 today played one of her songs in "pick of the pops" another artist I rarely see on VH1 let alone Bauer stations (exclude Vintage TV), yet she had a small comeback I think it was 2006 with Jack Rokka "push it" and once again another song that barely sees light of day! 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! ![]() MTV are funny stations all round. Don't like them as a company. They promote safe sex (with MTV and all that) and then show Geordie Shore etc - the is just for 'Marketing' |

Talentless Tweedy returned to the crap factor tonight. How many music channels are showing 'special' countdowns or programmes about this awful chav? I don't have any signal tonight because it's raining
![]() I do have signal on Clubland though and they've got their 'Euphoric' and 'EDM' obsession again, they just played a few quite good songs but Martin Garrix was in a euphoric countdown earlier. How is his music euphoric? It's just rancid noise aimed at people who hate music. |

MTV/Bauer are possibly paid in advance to run these "special" countdowns, but lets remember this aint real music its crap!MTV/Bauer suck right up, I just wish they could keep her music to one channel and let the rest BREATHE! Random thought: who was it that said they would play REAL MUSIC (I am sure it was one of the MTV family either still going or defunct - any ideas? I have VH2 in my head yet think VH1 was the other!) Euphoric aka be drunk or stoned not to remember what the track sounds like .... thank god for the 70-90's!

Clubland's app is working today. I've just requested and they're playing my choices which is cool because I've never seen Blood Is Pumping by Voodoo & Serano. Also requested Kernkraft 400 and they played it straight away so must be a quiet night.

It really was the Cheryl show today. Made me want to puke
![]() ![]() I actually listened to that new one with Tinie Tempah - see the "saxophone/trumpet" parts of the song its near on border of TV programme "One Foot In The Grave" it was weird it was playing on Heatradio and watching One Foot on TV burst out laughing as to how identical it sounded (not the main theme of programme its more of the in programme music lol

I have to admit his name rings a bell but I possibly switch off as it starts I think in general music has lost its way and with the likes of MTV, VH1, The Box and Clubland they too have lost their way and that if they really CARED for music they would spot errors and actually set up better playlists but of course they couldn't give a toss as "other" programming is priority and music is second

Clubland has played 'Scared' by slacker twice tonight, I've never heard this before and never seen it on music tv.
One minute Clubland are trying and showing some hidden gems like that song and Blood is Pumping the next they're being lazy and playing crap like Garrix, Tiesto and Calvin Harris which can be found on every other channel. Edit: The same Garrix song comes on after every ad break.

Wow It worked? But surprisingly just for a bit before reverting back to type.
There is now a message on screen - Patience! Yr choice will come up. That would make a change. ATC - Around The World which was my first request so they probably only allow 1 vote per person in certain time period.That's been there all day, do you think they realise that people can't see any voting info? |

One vote each is a bit naff - probably so they can play all their favourites. One vote an hour, fair enough, but all day? I only came in around 4.30 so missed the day - they played my first request after 16 minutes. My last request was 30 minutes ago and no show yet...don't forget we are voting in our THOUSANDS ![]() ![]()

I aint seen Alcazar played in ages either on MTV/Bauer channels - yet I wonder if these artists are still going and big in Europe/home countries?I am sure of one of these things .... either record labels do have a say in whats "acceptable" to play on a loop whilst if your looking for certain classics they will not see light of day .... is that down to the royalties of the artists or is that just these channels can't make a half assed attempt at doing something? |

I think the music channels are scared of Ofcom as they're way too strict on what happens on TV these days. A channel can get fined or investigated for the smallest of things these days ![]() So it means they just play the same songs in the same countdowns just to be safe and not get in trouble with Ofcom. |

The last time I saw Alcazar was a few months ago on Clubland when they were having a Classix weekend. It was Crying at the Discotheque.
Alcazar has been on a few times lately on Clubland. Britney's odd mix now on Clubland. I still say it has nothing to do with Britney bar the video and 3 little bits. It's not the tune remixed, just another tune using Britney for exposure basically. |

Music/OFCOM: bit weird that is it not? Some vids go to near extreme on daytime output ie Benny Banassi - Satisfaction/Rihanna - S&M yet its all fine but say its a video from the 90's it will still have the same censorship then but when we move with the times nothing changes (what gives??) Alcazar - Crying at the Discotheque (love that song) - is that the only one they play? They had another 2 or is that again can't be bothered highlighting the other songs? |

![]() (sings the world goes la la la ... la la la) I aint seen Alcazar played in ages either on MTV/Bauer channelsATC are sometimes played on The Vault Alcazar has been on a few times lately on Clubland. AAH so ATC still getting played on those channels but rarely elsewhere should I be that surprised? Not really but just shows you how "safe" MTV/Bauer playlists really are ![]() Alcazar I have never seen them on any channels these days (apart from what you listed) but strikes me really odd - if these channels are now playing so called 90's-00's and todays music can they be more open and transparent in what they play?? Bad enough VH1 keeps repeating the same stuff day in day out - similar to the other stations not much surprised |

All times are GMT. The time now is 16:59.






, why would you give backing of a programme that showing quite the opposite of what your hoping to achieve? MTV are funny yet they seem to think all its viewers including it sister stations have an IQ of TOWIE or something as thats all we get!

which was my first request so they probably only allow 1 vote per person in certain time period.
