Given it had 333 spins for 34th place, clearly it can't have been *just* 
R1 playing it! :)

Incidentally, I was surfing to try & find a comprehensive list of UK 
radio stations & frequencies - but I couldn't find one that lists all 
the info I want on a single page. You always seem to have to work 
through several levels to find name/location/frequency, etc. Does anyone 
know of such a summary site?

Not necessarily, at *this* time of year...

OK, then. Presumably none of the other stations playing it are all that big 
though.

I don't, although I have to admit I've never looked - it's never really 
occured to me to check what stations there are in places where I don't live.
On a side-note, do DAB-only stations count towards the airplay stats?

True, I suppose, but OTOH if they're falling overall then she'd have to be 
sustaining better than others.
