2010s

I'm not familiar with some of the songs in the playlist, to be honest. I assume Loud Luxury and Bulow are Canadian?

I can't believe how often Shawn Mendes' songs were played. You wouldn't want to be listening to the station for longer than an hour!

The top 40 FM station in my city used to play songs like "Brass Monkey", "I'm Too Sexy", and "Baby Got Back" alongside the current hits, and this was back around late 2004 and early 2005. Strangely, they also had Mis-Teeq's "One Night Stand" in rotation quite a bit, even though that song came out in 2001 and was also a soccer hit. I originally thought it was the followup hit to "Scandalous", which was the song of theirs that actually made the American top 40 and also the only British girl group song to come anywhere close to legitimate success here since the fall of the Spice Girls. "One Night Stand" was included on Mis-Teeq's US-specific compilation album and technically was the followup single, but still it never charted in the US aside from the Dance Club Songs chart despite its airplay popularity in San Diego.

Is this the Top 40 station or a throwback station?

So, Drake’s new song is already off the UK #1 slot. In its place is Calvin Harris’ “One Kiss”, a house throwback song that’s pretty straightforward, but still quite satisfying thanks to the featured vocal talent of Dua Lipa, a slick groove, and a nice backdrop synth riff to keep the song in momentum. It’s not as unbelievably excellent as “No Tears Left to Cry”, which deserves not only a #1 peak but also to be one of the big anthems of the summer, but it’s still definitely one of the better UK #1’s in recent months.

On another note, rest in peace, Avicii. :’(

It's definitely better than her earlier releases. If I didn't know better, I wouldn't have guessed it to be an Ariana Grande song. 

I agree, I actually quite like this song. 

In terms of Drakes new song "Nice For What", which seems to have replaced "Gods Plan" #1 spot everywhere, I don't really like it at all. In fact, I prefer "Gods Plan" over this one by quite a lot. I just realised that I actually don't mind "Gods Plan", I just think it was a bit overrated.
