This awful station is always on at my gym.

I just checked out the playlist and there is no heartless by AME. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5ti...e_gdata_player

I'm shocked, as they rinsed her song with duke Dumont to the very death !

Heartless is a great song.

She's touring with Jessie J at the moment. Nice music.

It's funny this thread has come up. Yesterday I came across as forum which posted up Radio 1 playlists of years gone by and I was shocked at how much variety they played 10 years ago.

I do love R1, and it's definately got the best pop playlist of any other station, but I do think their playlist policy needs looking at. The last straw for me for not playlisting Candy

I remember back to perhaps 10/15 years ago I used to love this station !
But yeah, I don't know what its become, it sort of reminds me of a man having a mid life crisis and trying to be cool, but getting it miserably wrong!

Then again at the ripe old age of 26, maybe I'm just getting old and not moving with the times.

I have to say though, I nearly fell off my perch in shock when I saw mariah on the playlist last month.
Maybe they have changed there ageist policy ?

Heartless was a weak/forgettable single, I can definitely see why it wasn't playlisted (whereas on the other hand, Need U (100%) was amazing). If she releases a stronger single next time, there's no reason that she wouldn't get on their playlist

Did "Play The Game Boy" ever make the playlist?

I've been a large fan of her work but Heartless is a terrible song, it's boring, generic and a little annoying.

I'm not surprised it wasn't playlisted and I'm not surprised it flopped as hard as it did.

I hope for the sake of her career that her next song is better!

Did this even chart? I think it didn't and it didn't deserve to chart or be playlisted by R1 anyway. Horrible song, horrible video.

The only song released this week that R1 SHOULD have played and didn't is Laura Welsh's 'Cold Front'. Masterpiece. I'm not too bothered about 'Heartless' flopping, but this song deserved to chart.

Nope, because I remember looking looking to see if this amazing pop record was playlisted when it came it out and was surprised that it wasn't even on the "C" playlist! Radio 1 did manage to have the latest mediocre single from The Killers on the playlist though.
