I don't understand that :?

Are they allowed to play any track off the album?

I've noticed that whilst having my ultra-trendy digital radio playing non-stop in the kitchen that 6Music seem to be playing quite a few tracks of 'Fundamental'. Even indie-darling Steve Lamacq is playing them! 'The S & G Show' and 'Psychological' seem to be getting played faily often, which would make sense as they're the first two tracks...

Of course they are! The radio can play anything they want as long as they play the owners of the publishing rights.

Usually they only play singles, but that doesn't mean that they can't play album tracks if they wish to do so.

It's a good way of filling the gap between the singles "I'm with stupid" and "Minimal". I suppose we'll have to wait three weeks for the promotion of "Minimal".

One question: Is the Cd-burner (Colin & Edith Show) usually a song that it's not included on the Radio 1 playlist or not necessarilly?.

Although I only listen to Colin and Edith occasionally, in my experience most of their CD-burners are playlisted - Snow Patrol's 'All That I Have', 'Heartbeats' by Jose Gonzales and 'From Paris To Berlin' by Inferno being three examples.
Passion, love, sex, money, violence, religion, injustice and death. More on that story later.

It premiered on radio in late March, so it's more than two months old actually.
