Current Radio 2 playlist

The last time Ms Winehouse had a new entry, there were complaints about her being too Radio2 / too coffee table / not poptimist enuff. And [livejournal.com profile] byebyepride posted the then R2 playlist. So I thought it might be interesting to do the same again now.

Shit, I didn't know Rufus had new stuff out!

Oh Tori, consigned to Radio 2 now...wish they'd released 'Big Wheel' as the lead. 'Bouncing Off Clouds' is gorgeous, but 'Big Wheel' is witty and catchy and quotable, which are more important.

That Bev song isn't great but there is better on the album.
