Just nipped out and had radio 1 on in the car, and heard what can only be described as a joke, and by far the worst tune I have ever heard

It was some kind of drum n bass thing, with the Superman tune sampled over the top of it

absolutly no regard for the beats or tempo matching

someone seriously needs shooting for that !!

rant over LOL

Bat-Fink

Superman as in the Eminem tune? Or Superman as in the superheroe theme?

*Sonic*

Superman the superheroe theme

It was so bad, I hope to never hear it again

Matteeboy

Can't be as bad as the latest JayZee "choon"

I switch stations the second it comes on.

Total mock RnB cack.

You know that you've reached adulthood when you question if what they play on radio one could be catorgorised as music or not

paul-s

was it this tune?

Putfile - superman 12

Abdabz

Worse than 1970's music? Worse than the Arctic Monkeys? Nah, not having it, just not possible

GaryK

Yep agree with that, I can only think its my age. I just cannot understand how some of these R'n'B artists churn out what is just crap songs with little lyrical content and repetitive melodies but they are hugely popular.

Its by Mike Skinner and its called Afriditi Man of Steel. Jo Whiley will be playing it soon, shes just been "bigging it up" lol

The Zohan

Just cannot listen to R1 anymore.

I now listen to
Horizon (on occaision - breakfast show mainly)
R2
R5 live
R4
That's about it for me

Matteeboy

Get Digital.

Then you can get Chill, Smooth, Radio 6 and a Kiss FM - All pretty good.

Radio One now has me scratching my own ears out when yet another pseudo RnB "song" comes on - I thought XFm was for that stuff?!

davegtt

Its playing now on the radio and its flipping awful....

Daft Lad

Not brilliant granted, but R1 play a LOT worse on an hourly basis!

yep very good bit of drum and bass to be honest

Daft Lad

I just wish we could pick Galaxy up at work, then I'd never have to listen to sodding Radio 1 ever again!

Matteeboy

My sister did some voice work for some Galaxy ads (radio station, not the choccy bar).

She's huskier than a siberian sled dog.

XFM is Indie and rock pop in the main, XFM Manchester being the better of the 3 XFM's (london Manchester and scotland) thankfully they don't play any of that crap they call R&B these days, some one should tell these people what R&B stood for once upon a time because it doesn't even resemble it nowadays.

Matteeboy

Funkii - This might be me being dumb. What's the Radio 1 "sister" station that majors on "black" music?
I thought it was XFm?

Bat-Fink

1xtra matt.

Heard the last halfhour of Mike standing in for Zane Loew.

Some bloody good tunes on there.

wez_sti

What about that one Mills played all the time, with no actual words... just made up mumblings! very irritating!

They ALWAYS say how crap a song is, then they'll make it their 'song of the week'

grrr

davegtt

Chaccaron thats my ring tone
