10 December 2009: Radio 1 delivers its verdict on Timmy Trendy

 

The playlist decision

The programme spent the afternoon waiting for George, Radio 1’s head of music, to announce whether Bang on Trend had been added to the playlist.

Scott behaved as though the novelty record’s future represented a major industry decision. Messages of support were collected, celebrations prepared and every possible positive sign treated as confirmation that Timmy was becoming a serious artist.

Alicia Keys wants Timmy

A message apparently from Alicia Keys said that all she wanted for Christmas was to collaborate with an exciting English artist named Timmy Trendy.

Scott promised to connect them, while the rest of the team questioned whether the message genuinely represented Alicia’s musical plans.
