Isn't that what the ratings button is for?  If we, as the RP listeners don't like a song, we rate it poorly.  Once the ratings drop below a certain point, it's not played anymore.

Kinda sounds like a playlist decided by committee to me.  

Now commercial radio on the other hand is not decided by a committee, unless that committee is the record label board room.

Normally, I do really appreciate Mich Gerber´s music. But this one is totally ruined by the awful singing, as segue said before. I´m pretty sure there is no song on this world who would survive this kind of terrible vocals. Sounds like a visit to a sadistic dentist: sucko barfo at it´s best!

That bass sounds oh so good. Would love to hear him and Tony Levin trading licks on stage with some kind of world beat band behind them, that would be something.

You've gone over the top, again. I don't know about you, faceache, but this "old man" (no pullover) needs no advice from some sexist arschloch on women, and I'll bet Poacher doesn't either. You're the one who needs to grow up and, who knows, you may even have a bit of success with the opposite sex if you quit treating them as tits and c*nts on legs and instead as real, living humans. You know, like what you aspire to be, but haven't yet made the grade. Scheisskopf.

If I could "Sucko Barfo" again, I would. Make it STOP! Sounds like she is sucko barfing. As bad as Natalie Merchant. Awful voice. Ick.

And NOTHING like Eartha Kitt! She could sing. This is gargling.

I agree totally. Just mesmerising. She's on a couple of the Bonobo tracks - and tours live with him (and the rest). Beautiful stuff.

That'll be a 'null set' then, will it, our Bill? ;)

Essentially, a song is overplayed if a punter doesn't like it, underplayed is s/he does. The subjective is all. Maybe individual singers/bands get more than one song a day, but I don't remember the same song every being played twice in a day.

I strongly value the variety and range of songs on this station, yea even with the sucko-barfos, and I know that I'm far from the only one. Viva RP! :)

The use of this kind of language came about when phone texting was done using a phone's numeric keypad. So the use of the letter "R" which replicates the sound of the word "are" (2 additional characters to type) actually made good sense. Those days are mostly gone but there are still folks who use it for brevity, mostly kids. Relax.
 
...and if you want to get historical about it, it was worse during the telegraph era.

Because you had to pay by the character, heavy users of the technology had all kinds of short forms and substitute words that make texting on phones look like Shakespeare.
