Breakfast Can Wait single

I would have posted in the other thread but the sticky thread is closed.
Bizarrely the single had now been added to BBC Radio 2's C Playlist, I heard it this afternoon, it was an edit emitting the chipmonk rap at the end. cool

AFAIK C list is 5-10 plays a week, B is 10-15 and A is 15-22. But then you have what time of day they're played aswell, if it's a record they like it'll be on alot between the hours of 6am and 6pm. To be fair RNRLA got it's fair share of daytime airplay so let's hope BCW makes its way onto the A list smile

How can it be considered a hit if it isn't in the charts? confused

I liked it better when he called it "Come On" and it was creative.

Got a lot of wives??

I know - you probably got auto-corrected. You meant views. But still, funny.

How, pray tell, is being on the C playlist of BBC radio 2 equal to a "hit" or "chart topper"?
And I'm not aware of it being played anywhere else. I certainly haven't heard it around here.
YT views count now, yes? So is it a hit if you add in the YT views?
BCW was barely a blip on my radar, and I'm a "Prince fan." So I'm having a hard time believing it's a "hit."
Just curious.
Or maybe you're being sarcastic?

as a non-english - what does this mean, BBC is "emitting the chipmonk rap at the end"... question

Emitting: ??



Is there an edit version of Breakfast Can Wait without the Camille-on-helium-rap...??


OR is the BBC playing the first half of this song, only.. and, then fading out...??

My bad smile and no it doesn't fade out, it's an actual edit. Although it could be a BBC edit if someone there didn't want it on there. I remember that they had to do their own edit on Sexy MF as they were given an exclusive on it but they were given the normal version. Some of the sweary bits made it on air lol

Well it's no longer on the playlist. It didn't get past the C list. That's that then. cool
