Well, I didn't expect to hear classic Kiss! And one of their relatively non-creepy tracks, too. Awesome choice whoever picked it!

Listening to Star by Belly (as a result of a suggestion for #ThePlaylist show next week on the Moon). I listened to this album so much in 1993 and I’m enjoying it so much now. Wall-to-wall bangers.

Also now that I've finished Late Kate-ing #ThePlaylist, why was Don't Stop Believing the playout song, what was the "tin" connection?
@DJDarren or anyone else who knows!

Thanks to @DJDarren for yet another great episode of #ThePlaylist!
The FamilyBot hair salon had the show on in the background, and it accompanied this colouring exercise for eldest ChildBot. #hair

The highlight of this week’s #thePlaylist was most certainly hearing Joe Satriani (yes: even better than my suggestions!). Respect to that @bodger lad 👍

The Now Playing dropdown from AntennaPod, which uses the podcast graphic image as a backdrop. However as the image is a stylised musical note (a crotchet, I believe, with a downwards tail) it looks like there is a black vertical line in the middle of the widget. This is definitely a thing that is easier to see than to describe, I'm afraid.
Dear Mr @DJDarren, I wish to protest in the strongest possible terms about the graphic for this week's #ThePlaylist, cos of wot it makes my podcast player's dropdown look like it has a glitch with a great big vertical line through it.
Yours etc etc, A Late Kate

Late Kate'ing #thePlaylist, as is my want, and Mrs Gascoigne has suggested the wonderful Bjork/Holmes collab of Play Dead.
I've always been taken with the bassline on this one...is it Jah Wobble?

@DJDarren A couple of #ThePlaylistSuggestion accent ideas. Some of these might fall into the category of novelty record. You can be the judge.

* I Am A Cider Drinker by those lovable Somerset chappies The Wurzels
* Ain't […]

@WiteWulf Yeah, that much whistling is a heavy ask, to be sure! You need to be sure you're in a safe place surrounded by people you trust, to guide you through.
All hail #ThePlaylist for being exactly that!

My other half would be having none of this, as she has a pathological hatred of whistling!

Big shout out to @alicemcalicepants for suggesting AFI for #thePlaylist last week.
I’d never heard them before, but I’m now listening to their latest album, Silver Bleeds The Black Sun. Let me tell you, it is ticking many, many boxes for this 80s/90s goth kid. Every track is oozing with Sisters […]

Oh, and a big shoutout to @catnip who requested Forest Swords on #thePlaylist back in October 2024.
They were the support last night, and I remembered enjoying that track when Darren played it, so made sure we got there in time to see them. It was worth the effort, they’re very good live if you […]

Bed time (for now!) for the kittens while I listen to #ThePlaylist and watch #TheSnowboarding

...And then also of course the wonderful Weakerthans, of whom I've only known for maybe a year or so, thanks to #ThePlaylist
But this is a lovely tune:

A graph showing popularity of song selections by decade, from the 1940s to 2020s. The 1990s is the clear lead, with similarly good showings from the 2000s and a decent turnout for the 2010s and 1980s, too.
I've also looked at the years of release for the selections made from my song suggestions for #ThePlaylist
Probably more or less what I'd expect, actually, given my teenage years were entirely within the 1990s.

A chart of nationalities and the number of songs selected from my suggestions for #ThePlaylist by artists of those nationalities, Australia: 1 Australia / US: 1 Belgium: 2 Canada: 6 France: 1 Germany: 1 Ireland: 3 Italy: 1 Sweden: 2 Switzerland: 1 UK: 40 USA: 69 (nice!)
A map of the world with a few countries coloured in, in various shades of blue. Darkest are the US and UK.
A little analysis from #ThePlaylist suggests I've only ever had two suggestions picked that were by Australian artists.
(Kylie and Fdel)
Must try harder.

Good lord the lyrics to _Kinky Boots_ by Patrick Macnee and Honor Blackman are really not suitable for broadcast in 2026. #ThePlaylist
