Radio 2

[axel smeets]

maybe

but at least on radio 1 they play good music & not old music & moyles is funny

Please, define good music as opposed to 'old music'. Moyles is as funny as cancer.

 

[davidpinder]

very very funny he says it with such enthusiasm

 

[Ted Danson]

Depends on how old you are... I'm 33, listened to Radio 1 for years and the music is pretty repetitive shite now, that fat bird, adele (looks like peter kay's character geraldine) is on non stop. And as for the presenters - knobs the lot of them.

Chris Evans is v funny and not half as annoying as he used to be

At last someone agrees me with about that fat warblling bint, I cant stand her and dont understand why everyone thinks she s musical genius, she wont be around in 10 years thats for sure.

Cant stand Chris Fat twat Leeds Scum Moyles either not funny, not clever and his voice just grates on me. the other thing that I cant stand is the level of conversation on there, surely its for 10 year olds

Im radio 2 all the way now although Im getting worried as they play too much contempoary music for my liking.

Great piggy shout though Andy whoever you are!

 

[Pinchy]

I used to agree with you until I started listening to 6 Music, which is Barcelona to Radio 2's, erm, current Blades side. Radio 1 is John Beck's Cambridge United.

Nick,

I like the 6 output as well but I haven't got DAB in the car so its a CD of Steely Dan, Van Morrison, Roxy Music [proper] or maybe a bit of Miles Davis if in the mood [No Glenn, not you, sit down!] or Radio Two!

RAPFARIAN - I :heart: it! Can we wear special natty dreads and sing 'Redemption Songs' at the beginning of a meeting and 'Exodus' at the end?

 

[William Large]

im 21 but i do like the djs like moyles , greg james & scott mills and also most of the music is in the chart

Radio 1 went down the pan when Mark and Lard left. Since then they have got rid of all the decent Dj's. or is it just an age thing? Moyles is a fat, big headed, mardy c**t who surrounds himself with sycophantic retards.

Agreed.

The problem I have now is that they are all trying to be comedians... except, unlike comedians, they are not comedians... That Fern Cotton is an actual cock. Greg james is very basic, the rest I wouldn't have a clue.

Moyles is just a tosser.

Scott Mills is the one saving grace, he's actually entertaining and has some comedy and can laugh at himself.

At last someone agrees me with about that fat warblling bint, I cant stand her and dont understand why everyone thinks she s musical genius, she wont be around in 10 years thats for sure.

I'm not saying she's shite, but she certainly isn't that good. She's just always on the radio... and every TV ad... and every other TV programme which needs a cheesy montage...

I wish she would go and roll in the deep... preferably in the seychelles

 

[judge]

that was fantastic & well played that man im so glad you posted it otherwise i would have missed it as i listen chris moyles in the morning

you should try one of olleys threads then they should be right up your street

 

[sitwell]

Radio 1 was turned off when Simon Bates played his last 'Our Tune'

 

[bladeinspaceandtime]

Chris Evans was okay on "Don't Forget Your Toothbrush", since then, not good. I used to listen to Radio 2 I'm the morning, not any more. Also, bloody Simon Mayo should be put on a ship and torpedoed (along with that twat Moyles)

 

[Sensiblade]

Just listened, Brilliant!

 

[stannyblade]

come on andy if you are on here take a bow son

 

[Blade Blade]

Can I take this opportunity to agree with my good friend Swiss Blade. I have warmed to Chris Evans just as Swiss' former doubts about our excellent manager are melting away by the day.

90% of Modern music is repetitive, derivative shite produced by DJs and c[rappers] who wouldn't know a musical note if it fell on them.

Radio Two is the equivalent of proper football. Radio 1 is for hoofers.

I agree with everything the pair of you said. Radio 1 is purely for children and, while I was unsure about wanting to hear Chris Evans' voice in the morning, I've warmed to him completely and he is not annoying at all.

BBC Radio 6 music, that is the equivalent of proper football.

Radio 2 is for imposters, mind you i did have a listen to it in the car the other week and had to turn it over as i was scared of turning in to my Dad

Must have just missed it. I got out of the car with the preceding song going round in my head. I'd have had a job explaining why I was chuckling as I went into the office though. Classic

Who's going to rip that section out and post it up here. Fortnightly Pig roast at Hillsborough mentioned on national radio.

 

[supermorgs]

i cannot beleive im only who listens & defending moyles as he gets 7m listeners every week compared to daybreak that gets 3m every week. but i admit i do like radio 1 becasue it can be childish at point like Moyles, Greg james & scott mills are childish, i guess i like childish humor. & moyles playing 10 songs in 3 1/2 hrs is best thing about show

but new music is alot better but cant explain why it just old music sounds (obviously) dated. and also adele cant be taht bad as ithink she got a good voicxe & she has 2 albums in top 5 & "someone like you" was at no 1 for ages longest reigning number one single in the UK of the decade & has been in top 40 since febuary

 

[bricktop]

Moyles is nothing but an unfunny obnoxious turd

 

[DuncDisorderly]

I'm afraid that nowadays I prefer quiet in the car and rarely listed to the radio. When I'm force to listen to e.g. Radio Hallam, (Mrs D's choice), all I hear are second rate songs, with no message and no thought in the lyrics ('Yeh, yeh, baby baby' is not in any sense, profound), by 'singers' with processed voices churned out more for their appearance and who they've shagged, than any musical merit. The bits inbetween are filled with the drivel of teenagers who are now 28 years old and should know better than telling everyone about their last 'great night out', or 'quiet night in', whats going to happen in tonights soap operas (dear God, WHY???), and trying to chat up the bit of fluff in the studio who is there only as a bit of potential sex interest in an otherwise wasteland for interesting, witty and tasteful banter. Radio 1 is like this only a bit worse. I did listen to Radio 2 for a while, and I confess listened to Steve Wright, in that 'Hey, its 1985 and lets pretend you havent heard all my material every week for the last 25 years' kind of way. It was enjoyable for a while, but it has faded.

Popular music is very much of its time and each generation will cling to the nuggets of gold in an exercise of selective memory. I laugh at people who go on about the 1970's and 80's as if they were wonderful times filled with wonderful tunes. They weren't. About 10% were genuinely good, (including my all-time fav bands, The Specials, Elvis Costello and the Attractions, Dury and the Blockheads for their creativity and lyrics, and Thin Lizzy for their wonderful noise) but at least 50% were bloody awful. We are the people who got Kelly Marie, and her cheesy 'boing boing' feature drum to No.1 in the charts for Christ sake! Any generation who did that has got squat to lecture anyone else about. Don't come with that 'I didn't buy it' crap. We were there. We are all responsible.

Mea culpa...

[Billyblade]

Popular music is definitely for a generation. I remember buying some right crap when I was 17. However, it still brings a smile to my face when I hear some it now. Some of the stuff that's out now is a pile of plop but some of the kids must like it to be buying it/downloading it/robbing it. I remember my Dad coming into my room on many an occasion saying "What the bleeding hells this tripe?" or staring in disbelief at the television when I was watching some music programme. That must still be happening now with the younger generation.

There is still some good music being made in all genres. (Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO brings a smile to my face every time but I wouldn't say I'm a fan of all music in this genre).

All this about modern music though cannot take away from the fact that Chris Moyles is a grade A twat. He's about as funny as the worlds biggest haemorrhoid. The main reason people seek out other radio stations is because of him and his bunch of twats that are paid to laugh at him. My advice for those pissed off with him is to get yerself a DAB radio and tune it into XFM or Kerrang! for some proper music. Or even better get over the pennines and tune into 97.7FM for XFM Manchester for maximum choonage!

 

[Oreyt]

Mea culpa... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eyft3J3kiuU

Top bit of pop that.

I don't understand why people get their knickers in a twist about music. I could never muster the levels of angst some can about other's tastes (bar around circa 1995 when you were getting 2nd generation Oasis copies like Northern Uproar, what an absolute nadir that was {Fact Fans - their lead singer is a hairdresser now}).

Anyway, get this up yer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTI8s0H31ys

 

[judge]

TAlksport or absolute for me
Oh and yeah chris moyles worlds biggest twat

 

[Kendal]

I've just emailed in asking for him to play Annie's song. And suggested he might become a real legend if he mentions Greasy Chip Butties.

And yes, Chris Moyles is a twat. Even by leeds fans standards, he's an arrogant tosspot with the brainpower of a small ameoba.

Didn't our old friend SwissBarmyKnife have a problem with Talksport?

Ha yeah

that prooves nothing except that nieve youngsters and their mums will buy anything that X-Factor etc tells them is good. the fact that the old music is still getting played is because they are good songs and have stood the test of time. I'll bet anyone that Adele is knowhere in 10 years time other than working in Burger King

i admit some it now is aload of crap like that cher lloyd song as that "swagger jagger" is the biggest pile of shite i have ever heard. & that dubstep is crap

 

[geekblade]

That's pure class. I shall pin it to my facebook wall and email it to my piggy mates. And yes, Radio 2 shits all over Radio 1. Moyles is a ****.

 

[raul]

Didn't our old friend SwissBarmyKnife have a problem with Talksport?

Yes, he's actually Mike Parry.

I suspect BK profits would take a hit if she was flipping burgers

 

[Bladesway]

Radio across the board is absolute guff. Moyles needs feeding to hungry bears as soon as is possible and local radio has just become a parody of itself. Radio 2 is full of presenters who should have been hacked off at the knees years ago (Steve Wright FFS!) and it sickens me to the pit of my stomach that Simon Mayo and Mark Kermode are still given oxygen for their little get together on a Friday Afternoon.

However, whilever we text in to pick our "artists" and that is what rules the airwaves then we deserve all the shit coming to us. Bands should be formed in rehersal rooms, youth club halls and in bedrooms across the country like was ever thus. They should play, reherse, play live and either make it or not according to being in the right place at the right time. Not be picked via a fucking talent competition and produced to hell by Simon fucking Cowell.

And all this "ahh but she's got 24 albums in the top 30 and has been in the charts since April 2008 solid" means fuck all any longer either. Anyone remember when it actually meant something to go straight in at number one, or spend 100 weeks in the album charts?

Talk White Van Man is what I end up coming back to, because love em or loathe em they talk about sport all day and I laugh/shout at the radio in equal measure. That or stick my Ipod into the adaptor and I can listen to what I like where I like, when I like. Why would you need some presenter to present a song you can't fucking stand intertwined with adverts for Safestyle UK and Comparethemarket.com when you have your own jukebox in a handy 500g package?

 

[DuncDisorderly]

I've recorded a short video which I think fully explains my views on this matter...
