This station has gone from the best to one of the worst. The music is still great but you cannot hear much of it due to certain individuals. Adil Ray states his name all the time which is so arrogant... See more

Love the minimal commercials and constant music but I have one question-there are millions of songs even mainstream ones. For God sake why do they play the same boring ones over and over and over. I'v... See more

So many great songs but ffs
So many great songs but ffs, how many times can you play John Waite - Missing You, She's Like The Wind - Patrick Swayze, Man In Motion - John Parr etc?? There's millions of songs to choose from. What is this fecking playlist all about? Mainly positive though cos plenty of great songs but please sort this weird shit out.
Lousy Choices
Mind numbing with same songs played every day it seems. I turn off as quickly as I turn it on. No imagination or thinking past the time warp it appears to be in
How about some good old rock n roll or the likes of B52, Ava Cassidy, Tom Jones, Dusty Springfield etc, etc. Come on please.
Boring repetition
Everyone to their own, but I found the playlist repetitively boring and interspersed with (thankfully only a few) adverts that are mind-numbing in their crassness.

Smooth radio so shit it need to be closed down b4 someone kill them selfs

Used to love smooth radio but can’t stand Jenny falconer and Gary Vincent talking every time it’s switched on..
Bring back John mcAulay

darren park does not chat endlessly and he played brilliant songs tonight 7 till 8 pm one after the other , usually smooth fm has far too many adverts and endless chatting that nobody needs to listen to
Music that spoils your breakfast
I’m staying in a Premier Inn and unfortunately they put this station on whilst I’m trying to have breakfast. It’s just too much, their music is absolute garbage and it just wrecks breakfast. If they were to play decent music then things would be different….
It would be lovely to hear them play my all-time favourite track: Suppers Ready by Genesis…25 minutes of pure genius.
The best thing this radio station can do is close down.
Depressing at best
Depressing at best. You can be in a good mood and this drags you down. The same cringe worthy tracks like Madonna Crazy for you, when she has made much better music and Cyndi Lauper Time after Time. Are these seriously supposed to be romantic? Imagine having some personal tragedy and having to listen to this, you'd be wanting to run in front of a bus. Maybe if there were more upbeat songs, beside motown and 70s disco then that would be a start. Adele's be easy on me is like Chinese water torture as is the repetition of Chicago's depressing songs.
Smooth and relax radio music were…
Smooth and relax radio music were brilliant!! However I've heard numerous repetition though and I do recommend more different relaxing songs played.
Smooth soul channel is brilliant
Smooth soul channel is brilliant! Plays all the favs for my age group ( I’m 70)! Get from Global player!
"AOI" calling irritation
They play way to many repetitive and annoying advertisements. All you hear all day long is “Aoi”…. I really enjoy their music but really cannot stand the “Aoi” any more
Better in Portugal
I listen to smooth radio in Portugal. The music selection is so much better and really is 'smooth' rather than just the same as many other UK radio stations. Use old songs not smooth.....
What's happened to it?
What's happened to it? I loved it, now it's the same songs daily. Also the amount of ads are ridiculous. Seems to be ads inbetween every song. Think I'll look for a different channel. Shame, it was my go to station. Just boring now.
StoppeBored of the same old same oldd listening to smooth after a few…
Stopped listening to smooth after a few years I have become bored with smooth too many adverts too many charity requests and too many repeated songs.
SAME SONGS, DAY IN, DAY OUT!
I like the station but it's like being on a rollercoaster of 'round robin' songs which don't change from day-to-day, week-to-week or even month-to-month! To coin a phrase, will you PLEASE change the record(s)!
Repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat
Wasn't intentional to write a "repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat" review, as outlined by the reviewer, 4 reviews ahead of mine !!!
But must have started to listen to Smooth Radio again "has anyone got a dry mouth, cough" to "has anyone got a dry mouth" y "has anyone got a dry mouth", well, "has anyone got a dry mouth, we sell t"
Can't have listened to Smooth Radio since a previous, May review, it's taken about 22 Hr's to remember why - endless stream of low grade adverts, but seems I'm achieving Smooth Radios repeat output ! & I'm not being paid for it !
Repeat repeat repeat
This station needs to be taken off the air and have a long hard look at its playlist. It’s always the same 20 songs every single day. It’s enough to make you insane and the adverts drive you up the wall. I wish there’s a way to contact them directly so we can let them know how much we hate their playlist
Tedious 2nd rate music from the 70's
Tedious 2nd rate music from the 70's, 80's, interspersed with adverts relating to cottage cheese, or whatever. Spent 8 minutes waiting for some music, now on Radio 4, 1pm news
Stop lying, it's never the best music!
Awful monotone dreary Smooth FM.
I realise we've all got different tastes but this is just dull awful slow lovey dovey heartbreak songs. Please stop. This station was chosen by our 60yr old manager. We are not allowed to change it and we are not allowed earphones. Ear plugs do NOTHING. I hate it. This will be mentioned when handing in my notice.
The most boring radio ever
The most boring radio ever. Same old songs every day and adverts.
