Triple M 50 Most Played Songs

[ripitup27]

50 Least?

are you gonna post a list. That'd be very interesting i think.

I'm out of the office most of Friday but I'll post it as it comes to hand. Songs have to have been played at least once.

Break On Through by the Doors has been played a bit in the promo, so already a +1 to that list.

 

[Lensen]

I'm only new to Melbourne but Vega's pretty much everything I wanted Triple M in Brisbane to be, save for the annoying interjections of the shithouse morning crew in every second adbreak

Doing their 50 least played songs of the last 20 years on Friday. Should be interesting to see which list is better.

So far, the 50 least played songs is beating the pants off last week's one, IMO. It's so awesomely random.

Says a bit about Triple M's playlist.

[wally funk]

some awesome songs on the unflogged list. you can bet that they didn't play all twenty-odd minutes of crazy diamond.

 

[demon_fanatic]

lol hey guys i know MMM plays MMMM MMMMM by Crash Test Dummies but i am fairly sure they play another one as his voice is very distinctive but i can't put my finger on it... can anyone list the songs triple m play by them?? thanks

 

[Damon_3388]

She's got no money

I got my rocks off

 

[JP Sauce]

Needs more Nik Kershaw.

 

[The_Big_Ship]

Are triple m aware radiohead has more than one song?

 

[Lemma]

More than one good song? Nah.

 

[Damon_3388]

Are triple m aware radiohead has more than one song?

I really like Radiohead, but I'm surprised Triple M are playing them at all to be honest.

 

[Bombermania]

Interesting list but no Metallica, Tom Petty, Divinals or Paul Kelly in the top 50

The thing I find with commercial radio is sometimes I don't think they play a Band best work

 

[hirdy_is_champ]

I've decided I hate Triple M. The other day I didn't have my ipod in the car so just turned the radio on for a bit and flicked over to them. They were talking about Avenged Sevenfold and I was thinking hmm this is a bit strange, aren't they too "heavy" for MMM? Anyway then the boadcaster proceeded to talk about how they've mellowed out for a bit (basically saying "so now we can play them") and played part of their new song. Of course it was that typical pedestrian rock s**t tham MMM love.
The main reason I hate them is because they act like they're the bastions of rock music, and then just play complete s**t, or 80's glam Bon Jovi etc. Fox are better than them, at least they don't act like they're something there not, they exist to play mainstream top 40 and that's what they do.

A friend of mine said that Radiohead would have to be one of the biggest one hit wonders ever, and why didn't they do more songs..Needless to say my face was firmly implanted into my palm

I love rock/hard rock/metal music. That's the reason i listen to triple M and it is footy and rock, Perfect mix!

I cant stand Nova or Fox FM, i despise their music.

 

[NitroFan]

thats clearly not adelaide triple m, if it was, then i might actually listen to FM radio again.

triple m here revolves around queen, jovi, chisel, queen, barnsey, crowded house, pink, queen, nickleback....

That's not a whole lot different to Triple M in Melbourne these days.

Has Triple M played a metal song that isn't a popular Metallica song in the last 5 years?

 

[thurmanmunson]

I know there's a lot of commercial bashing and I for one despise everything but Triple M and Gold.

Just been listening to the Triple 50 Most Played Songs in the last 20 years and really enjoyed it.

26 songs on that "unflogged" list that I either really like or absolutely love. At least with those songs they haven't been done to death and I'm really pumped to hear them on the radio again.
Any list that has You Could Be Mine (what a ****ing great song!), Star Hotel, I will Follow, Break On Through, Purple Rain, Plush, Don't Go Now and Remedy on it will something good going for it.

 

[Lemma]

Pink shouldn't be on that list. What a disgrace

Waste of time. Nothing will ever change. Triple M play the music they do because dumb tradies think that is what they like. Cold Chisel, Baby Animals, Darryl Braithwaite, and a six pack of beer on the way home. The mundane life of way too many. Sad.

If you want change, be progressive and look to the future with digital radio. There are some very good options already out there !!

Strength in numbers. The more people who get on board and voice their opinion, the more chance we have of changing something.

We've already had some articles written about what we're doing...

I'm well aware of what's available on digital radio, I host show on Saturday nights at 10PM on THRS Radio (http://www.radiojar.com/stations/thrs-radio) But it's not about me, it's about getting more support and exposure to new local bands and mainstream radio is still very relevant in the overseas markets, it's only Australia that has dropped the ball.
