He does drop the word 'single'... He says, "the EP single SFS, out on 25th May." Maybe it's going to be a single then. But he should put it on more downloadable sites so more people will download it.

keti Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Please, God. Don't make "Blue Eyes" as a single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kath Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Just looked on R2s playlists and it's on the B list, but no sign of it on R1s playlists yet.So it'll get a fair bit of play on R2 this week I'd imagine. Disappointed in R1 though. Thought Jo, Scott or Sara would pick up on it (although Sara might this weekend for her record of the weekend, if it's her turn). fingers crossed. Don't know which day they change the playlist but today it is definatetly on the R2 A list: (sorry....just looked again and this in NEXT weeks A list so next week it will get 20 plays:shocked:) A List Shontelle feat. Akon- Stuck With Each Other Mika- Blue Eyes (taken from the Songs For Sorrow EP) Empire Of The Sun- We Are The People Taylor Swift- Teardrops On My Guitar Pixie Lott- Mama Do Kleerup ft. Titiyo- Longing For Lullabies Pretenders- Love’s A Mystery Pet Shop Boys- Did you See Me Coming? Paolo Nutini- Candy Daniel Merriweather- Red The Playlist Committee, made up of producers and chaired by Jeff Smith, Head of Music Radio 2, meet each week to decide which new releases will be added to the station's playlist. The playlist contains about 30 tracks which are divided into three levels: A list, which receive the most plays, about 20 each week; B list 10 plays and the C list around 5 plays. The Radio 2 playlist is one of the most varied of any radio station in the UK and can include albums as well as singles. Before any CD can be considered for inclusion it must be commercially available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kath Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Wow when I looked yesterday it was B list. WOW he will get lots of plays now!People will like it too! It's a very Radio Two record I reckon. I am wondering if it doesn't quite fit Radio Ones remit. I was in the car today doing the bank run with a colleauge when it came on....my look obviously became vacant (shame I was driving) and she recognised it as the 'Mika is on the radio look' although she obviously didn't recognise the record as she had never heard it before. She said she liked it...but I don't know if she was just being polite:roftl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harlequeen Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I hope my favorite radio station will pick up the EP and start playing Blue Eyes soon. It's a major radio station for western Germany. They play Mika quite a lot. Today we got to hear Any other world, and Relax, Big Girl and Happy Ending (album version as always) were on the last couple of days. guess why it's my fav station!

I've been tweeting Scott Mills to play it, hopefully he might comply or at least give a reason why they haven't started yet. Will look up their playlist and see if it's changed from yesterday.

Gatagordinha Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Great news that it will be on the R2 A List next week I wish though that when it is played, the DJ would just briefly explain that the song is only available via mikasounds. I'd hate to think that people hear it, really like it, and then go to iTunes or something and scratch their heads wondering why they can't find it.

Sadly I think it'll be a case of listening to it, liking it then illegally downloading it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
