To hear Lovetc next week I downloaded a new iPhone internet radio app,
and tuned it to .. what is it .... BBC Radio ... 2 ? Who is Ken Bruce ? Rhetorical question.

What I really want to know is, about what time in "between 9.30 am and 12 noon "
do you think he will play it ? Don't really want to listening on ear buds all that time.

We don't seem to have an equivalent ABC radio station.
That role is owned by the commercial stations here.

It must be played. I think PSB wouldn´t cheat on us on official site.

In its single version it will not be a dancefloor hit. It's not a dance record. It would actually be quite difficult to dance to it, due to it being in triple time.

Of course it will be played. We just don't know when, so we will have to sit and listen through the whole show - sorry greg.

I hope to dance the Remixes of the track by Gui Boratto and Pet Shop Boys :dance:

Yeah, we're not quite that sophisticated here, are we. Though the woman who does the local ABC brekkie show seems to play a lot of Radio 2-type stuff.

I'm just going to have it streaming live on my PC during the allotted time. With our luck, they'll play it at the very end of the show. LOL.

I think it's an hour behind, but not 100%

I wouldn't be surprised if he plays it twice. :wink: I'll put £1 on it being after the 10am news. :lol:

I think after the 1000 news is probably right. Ken Bruce plays 'Left to my Own Devices' in that slot with alarming regularity.

He won't play it twice though. That was a Simon Bates Radio 1 trick!

I've just heard it! It's so strange... yet so good and fun and sexy! I love it.

It's like Black & Gold + Tubthumping + Die Another Day + Can You Forgive Her. And yet, it's not like anything else.

The best bit: "You need more, you need more, you need more, you need... love!"

Just heard it too. You know you are onto a winner when it's instantly likeable and this is. The chant and reply is awesome. Very catchy throughout. I'd already give it 9/10. A cracking single.

I was afraid it would be too cheap, too "use & throw-away" pop, but despite being very catchy, it's dark, sexy and very elegant. Neil signs with such dignity, yet you can tell he's having fun. A really good lead single, and I can see it being successful with the right promotion, actually.
