BBC Radio 1 is a British national radio station operated by the British Broadcasting Corporation which also broadcasts internationally, specialising in current popular music and chart hits throughout the day. Radio 1 provides alternative genres after 7:00pm including electronic dance, hip hop, rock or interviews. It is aimed primarily at the 15–29 age group, although the average age of the audience is 33.
Radio 1 was established in 1967 (along with its somewhat more adult-oriented counterpart, BBC Radio 2) as a successor to the BBC Light Programme, which had broadcast popular music and other entertainment since 1945. Radio 1 was conceived as a direct response to the popularity of offshore pirate radio stations such as Radio Caroline, which had been outlawed by Act of Parliament. Radio 1 was launched at 7:00am on Saturday 30 September 1967.
Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American singer-songwriter and occasional actress. Raised in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, Swift moved to Nashville, Tennessee at the age of fourteen to pursue a career in country music. She signed to the independent label Big Machine Records and became the youngest songwriter ever hired by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house. The release of Swift's self-titled debut album in 2006 established her as a country music star. "Our Song", her third single, made her the youngest sole writer and singer of a number one song on the country chart. She received a Best New Artist nomination at the 50th Grammy Awards.
Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in late 2008. Buoyed by the chart success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", Fearless attracted a crossover audience and became the top-selling album of 2009. The record won four Grammy Awards, with Swift becoming the youngest ever Album of the Year winner. Fearless also received Album of the Year plaudits at the American Music Awards, Academy of Country Music Awards and Country Music Association Awards, making it the most awarded album in country music history. In 2010, Swift released her third album, Speak Now, which sold over one million copies in its first week. She then embarked on the 111-date Speak Now World Tour, which was attended by over 1.6 million fans and has become one of the highest-grossing concert tours of all time. The album's third single, "Mean", won two Grammy Awards for Best Country Song and Best Country Solo Performance. Swift is currently recording her fourth studio album, due for release in the fall of 2012.
Christina María Aguilera (born December 18, 1980) is an American recording artist and actress. Aguilera first appeared on national television in 1990 as a contestant on the Star Search program, and went on to star in Disney Channel's television series The Mickey Mouse Club from 1993 to 1994. Aguilera signed to RCA Records after recording "Reflection", the theme song for the animated film Mulan (1998).
In 1999, Aguilera came to prominence following her debut album Christina Aguilera, which was a commercial success spawning three number one singles on the Billboard Hot 100—"Genie in a Bottle", "What a Girl Wants", and "Come On Over Baby (All I Want Is You)." Her sophomore and her debut Latin-pop album, Mi Reflejo (2000), a Christmas third studio album, My Kind of Christmas (2000), and several collaborations followed which garnered Aguilera worldwide success, though she was displeased with her lack of input in her music and image. After parting from her management, Aguilera took creative control over her fourth studio album, Stripped (2002). The album's second single, "Beautiful", was a commercial success and helped the album's commercial performance amidst controversy over Aguilera's image. Aguilera followed up Stripped with the soul, jazz and blues inspired, Back to Basics (2006), released to positive critical acclaim. The album produced three singles "Ain't No Other Man", "Hurt" and "Candyman". Four years later Aguilera released her sixth studio album, Bionic (2010), which incorporated aspects of R&B, electropop, and synthpop and was met with mixed reviews and low sales. Aguilera's seventh studio album is set to be released in 2012.
Banned for life from the institute of fame
Radio 1 a million listeners can't be wrong
Switching off not switching on
So ya don't wanna play me song, on the air
Cos I despise you, and I'll say it, yes I dare
I got a stereo in my head
Got a hi-fi in my mansion
I'm searching for another way
Radio 2, Radio 3..it's very me
No I don't wanna get cheeky with it
Still got my Ziggy ticket
Just what the world needs now
Another lousy boy band
Immitation Velvet Underground
No one likes the truth
Don't wanna be the voice of youth
I'm getting old and losing my hair
Got pretty eyes, why should I care
No I don't like Eminem
Hatred with a wicked beat
Oh why, cos I'm one of them
I'm a fag, you're a fake
Alex Donelly are you awake?
Jo Wiley your so damned cool
Didn't I used to work with you?
Heard you snipe at my reformation
Heard you diss me, on the TV
Put your words in the mouth of a school
I loved Wham when I was at school
Mel C, you wannabe...talented, you got lucky
Buy a DJ, someone hip
A barrel with far too much lip
I used to worship you
Walk the streets with ya to my ear
Cos my mother said turn that down
Now if I had my way
I'd burn that building to the ground
Boy bands and cheerleaders
Homophobes and earbleeders
American misplaced anger
I won't hang ya
I'll just hang myself
Castles in the sky
What the hell are they
Who builds them anyway
I kiss you Annie on 1
John Peel the prodigal son
I didn't become a musician
to take the foetal position
Someone get me a gun
Screw you radio 1
A million listeners can't be wrong
Switching off not switching on
A million listeners can't be wrong
Switching off not switching on
A million listeners can't be wrong
Switching off not switching on
Not switching on
Not switching on

Melancholy snipers
