I don’t think I’ve met a person, of any age, who isn’t up for a spirited chat about songs on the radio.
Radio’s pretty pervasive in the UK. 89% of the population listen to at least five minutes a week and even 82% of 15-24s tune in at some point. Music makes up a large proportion of what’s played, so it’s no surprise everyone has an opinion.
So what’s the best way to pick songs for the radio?
