It's owned by Bauer who own Absolute radio. I just don't get why these commercial stations operate like they do,playing the same songs day in day out.It's fine for 10 minutes or so but 8 hours a day? Imo, they don't cater for true music fans... I’ve only got to suffer their playlist for two weeks so it shouldn’t get to repetitive, I hope.

Walking our little Yorkie yesterday past a house where some builders were knocking a garage out. They had one of those loud radios which tradesmen use. He was of a certain age as he was whistling to Wild west hero as it echoed through the neighborhood..yeee hi!

Dear me, the Popmaster contestants' standards are slipping. Ken's just asked "Which band had a hit with an instrumental version of 'Don't Cry For Me Argentina'?" The hapless caller replied.... "Er.... ELO?" Sigh. It was The Shadows.

Quick guess without looking, David Essex? Correct, 'Oh What A Circus' from Evita uses the same tune!

"Cruella" the movie debuts today with "The Way Life's Meant to Be" in the soundtrack. the movie is getting ripped in the reviews that I've seen with critics even asking if it should have been made at all I don't think it will be in the running for worst movie ever like Xanadu. But it may be one of those films where the sound track is superior to the movie itself.
