Nova Network

Is it that bad? It’s usually 2Day that plays the disgusting remix versions. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

They should stick to the original version. Almost always.

I’m a Blur puritan, so

Good to see Nova run a log like this. Should be permanent tbh

Fair enough. I channel surf a lot these days to avoid Nova’s repetitive “hits” but whenever I hear an abomination of a remix on 2Day or KIIS, it’s straight back to Nova. :laughing:

They would boost older demographics and total numbers, if they included more 80s and 90s stuff as listed there. They even have a 60s track there. :open_mouth:

Looks like they’re continuing it throughout the day but now they’re starting to repeat some of the special playlist. They just can’t help themselves with repeats. :roll_eyes:

Nova 106.9 has now returned to their own playlist.

But not Nova 96.9 and they’re alright with hitting the repeat button.

12:14 Journey - Don’t Stop Believing
09:09 Journey - Don’t Stop Believing
I can stop believing Nova. I can stop believing you will not be repetitive. :stuck_out_tongue:

14:49 Sam Smith - Stay With Me
13:24 Sam Smith - Stay With Me
12:23 Sam Smith - Stay With Me
Can you believe that? One of his old songs but they’re playing it every hour? :crazy_face:

10:08 Macklemore - Same Love

12:52 Yazz - The Only Way Is Up
09:16 Yazz - The Only Way Is Up

14:52 Ce Ce Peniston - Finally

Maybe RadioInfo should release a crossover of Nova96.9 up against Nova96.9 hour by hour.

I did a comparison of Nova 96.9, 100 and 106.9 from 9am to 4pm last Wednesday. I will have results ready to share in the next couple of days hopefully.

As of yesterday Greg Burns is doing mornings on Nova 106.9. They are doing their own playlist today with Throwback Thursday. Will that be the same tomorrow or will it be the Nova 96.9 playlist on one hour delay with specific Nova 106.9 breaks inserted?

At this stage Greg Burns is not on Nova 919 as Cale was on air yesterday.
Greg will be busy doing Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and a seperate show for Brisbane.

Will he do like Smooth and maybe prerecord his shifts days in advance?

He’s doing what - four 15 second talk breaks per hour…? Not hard really, especially considering Sydney and Melbourne (at least) are identical breaks with the city changed…

SA is 30 mins behind NSW/Vic.

Today was Cale Porter’s last morning shift on Nova 91.9

Greg Burns started on Nova 919 today.

And I wonder if Greg has ever even stepped foot in South Australia, let alone Adelaide.

Unlikely, waiting for him to stuff up a suburb like Keswick or something like that.

But t’s an English name. Isn’t it pronounced the same way as the original?

In Adelaide, the W is silent, so its more like Kes-ick. Have heard it mispronounced in TV by people interstate before.
