It's Eurodance day on Clubland and they are currently playing two Blue Lagoon songs in a row, one of which is 'Heartbreaker' which I don't think i've ever seen before.

So now using a VH1 programme on an MTV branded channel - things must be going well at MTV by the looks of things (being sarcastic at the MTV lot)

VH1 has even since the revamp been boring there is nothing really new that makes you want to go watch the channel as all they advertise top right corner is UK Top 40 and some programme on MTV which some viewers wouldn't give much of a toss about - I don't think VH1 is for the mature adult audiences these days it seems more aimed at the new MTV generation anytime I watch it

Yep, they seem to be content sharing.

Clubland now showing another Blue Lagoon song - all covers of course and the 'rapper' seems to rap in the same 'tune' on every song.

I'm always puzzled by how much acts like Blue Lagoon and Baby Alice get so much play on Clubland and always cropping up on their compilations when the singles didn't even make top 200. It's like stop trying to make fetch happen.

Baby Alice is on the aatw record label, not sure about Blue Lagoon as they aren't even able to be selected as they are no on the app, yet they've been played 4 times already

I'd much rather see them than the likes of Jessie J, Rihanna or Calvin Harris. Baby Alice and Blue Lagoon may be seen as cheesy and uncool but they're a nice change to the usual uptempo urban crap.

Yep, it's good Clubland touch things others wouldn't.

Interesting one on The Vault - Samantha Mumba as a one hit wonder. All the more interesting she has her own programme on The Vault with all of her hits, so a bit of a balls up there.

Noticed a lot of channels copying each other these days with Way Back Wednesdays, Throwback Thursdays and Flashback Fridays.

The Vault has Barbie Girl by Aqua in their One Hit Wonders but they've had quite a few singles plus the channel even has a dedicated show for Aqua. Stupid Faleo

Since she took control of The Vault it's become more repetitive than ever before.

Bliss is still dull and boring , why don't they rename it Chart Show Hits instead as i said before because 90% of the content is hits of the past 24 months , they should chuck all pop on that channel new and old to make it a stronger and more varied competitor to MTV Hits!

The Vault and Bliss have very heavy similarities at times which is why i think The Vault should ditch the whole Pop format , it should be a channel that plays anything into themed playlists.

Sad really so I guess VH1 has no real content for its viewers shame really

Blue Lagoon - lol

Watching VIVA - That 70's Show (use to be on defunct Trouble channel) I wish they would sort out the announcement at end (there is no one speaking but sound is turned down!)

VIVA is becoming a bit like Trouble. Should add a few more sitcoms, teen dramas, reality and films then it could become a really good channel.

The end of shows is annoying, sometimes it will come up before the end and you can barely hear what's happening.

It be great if they gave VIVA a new look too and use the triangle logo thats used on the german and polish version.

It may as well become "trouble" if I am honest - its ever closer that way

The ending parts - well thats 2 episodes of That 70's Show sound is turned down at end with no announcer, its not turned up again till ads/bumpers start - why not just scrap that altogether its already annoying (had to go over to Yesterday watching One Foot instead ) and also VIVA is hitting the overdrive with that Geordie Shore ad catching MTV extra bits from it on that website (why advertise a show on a channel that has not even shown it yet?), this is what bugs me with this lot at MTV UK its MTV ads no matter what channel you watch - get a f..kin grip you lot

Whats the point in them - they ain't going to touch something that was obscure out of the 70's or even 80's really! Be something obvious that we know

and as someone mentioned Aqua being "one hit wonder" (the tv channel saying it) again proves the point in how very little research is done into anything music but by god they be able to give you facts on all things reality though

Clubland changed their classix chart last week and today they are playing the most selected on the app today - what a pity it's the same chart as last week - exactly!

They should just do a monthly chart and stop passing off old/made up charts onto viewers they clearly think aren't very bright and have poor memories. They are getting embarrassing.

After a good few days, Bliss have gone back to the same as The Vault.

Bauer keep playing the same charts over and over and MTV keep showing top 50's of the year so far.

Capital are showing artists they never ever show on usual programming such as Above & Beyond - it appears they have gone all 'EDM' of late.

Every time I turn onto 'Now' they appear to be playing Taylor Swift - either a programme or her new 'song' which is incredibly bad.

Sylvester, are you voting for Cascada right now?

I voted for a few videos on Clubland half an hour ago now and they haven't shown up yet.

Yes, I voted for Truly Madly Deeply, but not the megamix - Because The Night (Hardcore Mix) was me too - their are ways around their limits

What have you voted for?

What have you voted for?”

Bodyrockers - I Like The Way & Studio B - I See Girls

Still haven't seen them but I've never seen them on Clubland TV since it launched or any other music channel since around 2007.

I honestly think it depends on who is in command on each day. Sometimes they'll play requests, sometimes they'll totally ignore them.

Very poorly run. Shouldn't offer voting if it doesn't make any difference. Looking at the reviews of the app, most people have issues with it.

The fact they pass monthly countdowns off as daily countdowns and expect us not to have the intelligence to notice they are the same week in week out tells you all you need to know.

They don't have the decency to reply to comments on facebook and the replies on the app reviews are a copy and paste job.

Whether your requests get played will be based on who's running the show, whether the app is working or if any of their technology is actually hooked up to work. This is a company who can't find videos of artists on their label from the previous year though.

They still get played?? last time I seen Bodyrockers was on Heat on a countdown .... Studio B as far as I see ain't seen the light of day with that lot at MTV, yet they played that song to hell like the Bodyrockers on MTV Dance - is MTV just been too lazy arsed to play certain songs its all about "today" anything from the past is locked away?

4Music is just bad with that "fresh" countdown when songs are already in the charts and its still listed as "fresh" - no its not! They need to overhaul these shows ie if a song is the top 40 get rid of it from "fresh" countdowns it just looks stupid and there has been times I have been caught out thinking song isn't out and it actually is - surely this deserves OFCOM giving this lot a slapped wrist?

Studio B gets played occasionally, if it's the version i'm thinking of.

I doubt ofcom really care whether they call something fresh or not.

Magic appears to have it's new look.

I wonder what all music channels on Sky's obsession with boy bands is? Some of them play bands like Backstreet Boys as if it was still in the charts today. Surely the 90's offered more than just pop music?
