I switched to internet radio. You can find the style you like there without have corporate radio and record companies controling the 25 songs they play on each station. I like standards. There are no stations on the air here in LA that play them because the corporations can't make enough money on them. The internet allows a mix of music that doesn't limit the number of different songs played. So I found www.MartiniIntheMorning.com that plays a mix of old standards and mixes in standards performed by new artists.

no man radio 1 rocks. its different from other radio stations, the producers allow for the DJ to adapt their own styles, thats what makes it so good......CHRIS MOYLES IS GOD!!!!!

Radio 1 is for all Modern types of Music - it specialises in discovering some good Unsigned talent too - for a prime example The Ting Tings.

If you want older music or different styles the BBC have quite a few stations to cater for you - you could just try local Radio

I like a bit of a mix, Radio1 is my prefered station. I can't stand commercial stations.

I like the Bank Holiday Radio1 days when you can request anything from theme tunes to chart and Fern and Reggies request show thats when you get variety.

I agree with every1 else. Listen to a different station, if you want to hear old songs, such as your local station perhaps. Mine play stuff from about the 70s onwards. Or, play a CD of old songs.

EVERYBODY KNOWS RADIO 2 plays some good music. Radio 1 is more for younger people who like young music, just like Radio 1 was long ago.

Noooooooooooo...I admit during the daytime it can get a bit repetitive but during the night when they have specialist programming it's really mixed...

If you want old and new mixed up together try Radio 2.

yeah they should I have stopped listening to radio one now cos it is just way too repetitive, its like they just play the top 15 songs in the charts over and over again all day long, I have began listening to my local radio station TFM! its north east radio and I love it becuase they play a bigger range of songs old and new.

Their music policy is OK but they should bring back the Radio 1 Roadshow. I live on the coast and it was a great excuse to take the day off work and go drinking all day.
