Didn't Liz Kershaw say she was coming back in September?
BBC6 listening figures in September if that pans out, she's not popular (if you go by Twitter for this sort of thing).

Think it's nailed on that SK's replacement will be female and from a dance music background.
Personally I'd like to see Huw Stephens given a crack but I can't see it happening.

I really like it. I wouldn't call it droney. Got a nice catchy hook.
I think he/she/they will also be younger. His 'Middle aged shoutout' feature has come back to bite him on the arse

Radio listenership is always older than the proposed target market, at least it seems that way.
It'll be one of those women with a made up name. Jam superstar or the blooming maradonna.

I always thought the MASO was supposed to be ironic?

I really like Self Esteem and like that song but 6 are really overplaying it at the moment. I'm hearing it about 3 times a day and that just during working hours.

+1 to Self Esteem doing my head in. Talking songs can be good, but this just reminds me of better ones and is way over-played. Thankfully, I now tend not to listen to 6 Music daytime output non-stop, but I still hear that track too often.

I didn't even realise it was a cover until LL said it was Idles. What's the point of doing a cover that's practically identical to the original (to these ears anyway!)?

It's this some sort of sick joke? Though, I note, many bonkers music views posted on these boards the last two days.

Am quite pleased that The Stranglers cover of Walk on By gets a spin every now and then. That organ solo is blinding.
the vocal are totally different (and not in a good way)

I’d rather find music based on knowing my own onions than whatever a PR close to a Radio 6 DJ thinks I might like.
Gilles Peterson and Gideon Coe excepted: both excellent. But I barely listen to Radio 6 and would rather listen to my own playlists, because a) I spend a lot of time seeking out new music to listen to; and b) I don’t have to listen to myself talking shite all the way through them.

Ay, no more SWM, they're for the scrapheap and don't fit the BBC diversity tickbox agenda

Back to my #shutthefuckup gripe.... the wonderful Gideon Coe is doing the Breakfast show for some bizarre reason (a plan to make him leave? Why else make him do 730-1030am and then 9-12midnight on the same day - bastards), but the man has just been chatting away through the last 30seconds or so of Little Sim's latest and this man never speaks over records. So I am now convinced that it is BBC policy for the earlier part of the day. Are listeners in the AM too bloody stupid and impatient to stay tuned if a track is played from beginning to end without a DJ rambling over the top of them? Seems that way.

I think last night or the night he said something about the show being prerecorded.
no chance. he burned all those bridges when he left.Bring back Phil Jupitus. The Sex Pistols followed by Rush in the morning
his memoir of the 6 Music launch & his time there is a pretty interesting read actually. Good Morning Nantwich if you want to look it up.
