Finding Music Played On Bbc Radio 2

[naomi24]

Today on Radio 2, Jeremy Vine played what must be the worst song I’ve ever heard. The name of the singer/group began with ‘A’ - one word I think - and it was played immediately (or thereabouts) after the 12 noon news.

I know playlists are available so I googled but to no avail. I’ve no idea where or how to find them. Can anyone help please? I want my husband who's very knowledgeable on music to hear it. I would mind getting the opinions of ABers either.

Then find your way to the programme you're interested in and the playlist is there.

Party Fears Two by The Associates? Billy McKenzie (their vocalist) had something of a unique style....

That's theme mamyalynne.great song in my opinion from the 80s. But it took a couple of listens to appreciate it. It was an unusual style.

[fiction-factory]

Should start that is the one.

[Mamyalynne]

It is poor at the start but picks up, agreed.

Here's my candidate for the worst song ever: Des'ree. Famous for "You gotta be", she also produced this monstrosity:

I should have said, if you go to my link at 14:22 you can play it from there - easy to show your husband.

[naomi24]

That's it Mamyalynne! Well spotted. Thank you.

Thanks bhg.

whaddya mean? rhyming ghost with toast, that's class......

[Ellipsis]

And you know what class rhymes with!

[fiction-factory]

Some songs grab you straight away. Others take a while.such as prodigy fire starter which I hated at first. If you think associates is bad naomi try the current number one from cardi B called wap

I love the BA as shown in the BA box!

[naomi24]

bhg, me too. It reflects my reaction on hearing that song. What is THAT?!!!

[Mamyalynne]

Ta :-)

Music is so personal isn't it?

[naomi24]

ff, that song would never grab me. I can't make up my mind whether they're drunk, drugged, demented or just plain daft. What a God-awful racket!

[bhg481]

I know it's a discussion show but it's surprising how few tracks are played; only 10 in a 2-hour programme.

[Mamyalynne]

Hard to believe it's 23 years since Billy Mackenzie died -wow.

Party Fears Two is one of my all time favourites. I love the vocals
