Have to say have really enjoyed tuning in to Mark Goodier this week.
He plays some great music and is always upbeat and interesting to listen to.
Hopefully we will hear more of him during 2007. |

We look forward to such classic text / e-mail interactions as 'what's in the back of your van' and a few more read out surveys |

I heard a bit of him today. It sounded a bit contrived with the text in element. The problem is that he doesn't develop or run with it. All he does is read out the responses that people text in.
I suppose you cant ask for much more from a holiday cover DJ on a dead day at the fag end of the year.......... _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

Certainly upbeat (his voice is never 'down') but sadly a little uninspiring for my tastes, although IMHO better than some presenters on the network at the moment.

I dont know if you remember Clive Warren? If you put the voices together they sound slightly the same. Mark does a lot of voice overs and chart radio on Real Radio'. I suppose his voice is kept to a level? He's just a plan radio presenter from the past which RADIO 2 needs instead of these celebritys which swarm the network. |

I have always thought that Mark Goodier and Simon Mayo sound the same. Clive Warren does sound a bit like Mark Goodier! Well spotted!
Whatever happened to Clive Warren? I remember his pre-breakfast show on Radio 1. He was awesome. Then the great Chris Evans came on afterwards at 6.30am!
Clive Warren would be alright on overnight Radio 2. |

I remember Steve Wright took the P out of Mark & Clive when they came to R1 how they both sounded the same. |

What a surprise!
Steve Wright is such a tit...I wonder how he would react if one of his Radio 2 colleagues took the piss out of him? He's always mocking his colleagues. |

Mark Goodier announced at the end of the CLassic FM Chartshow this morning that he was quiting the programme. More deputising on R2
on the cards perhaps ? |

I guess he's got more work on at Radio 2 as he produces a lot of shows on Radio 2, ie: Johnnie Walker ( Micheal Ball ) Also he hosts the chart show for Real Radio. I suppose he has to give up something to get some more profile for Radio 2. The man legend and a great presenter, which R2 needs. |

No, sorry, don't remember him at all, Mark. _________________ Author: “To the Ends of the Earth: A Snapshot of Aviation in North-Eastern Siberia, Summer 1992”

I wouldn't object to Mark Goodier being a regular on Radio 2. I've always wondered what he was doing mucking about on Classic FM after many years on Radio 1. He seems an obvious choice for R2. _________________ ~*Rachel*~

He also does the chart countdown for Real Radio. I'am not hundred percent sure if he's still working on Classic FM ,as I read it was his last show, last saturday? |

Mark handled it quite well regarding the chart news. He was put slightly on the spot and kept quite for a while. The problem is he can't talk to much about it on Radio 2 as he's under contract with another radio network. |

Posted: Sat Jan 06, 2007 4:07 pm Post subject: The Chart ( Sun Interview With Mark Goodier ) |
|
|
THIS Sunday, the UK Top 40 charts as we know and love them will go through one of the most significant changes in their 54-year history.
From now on, any songs downloaded on a computer, as well as the ones that are bought in the shops, will be eligible for the No1 spot.
Think about that for a minute. So instead of, say, 100 records competing to fill the Top 40, around 3million songs will be fighting for the coveted top spot.
So alongside the likes of Westlife, Coldplay and Robbie Williams, you’ll have artists as diverse as Pink Floyd, Van Morrison and Elvis Presley all vying for the Top Ten
It’s a great move that I hope will put the vibrancy and the magic back into the Top 40.
New rules specify that for a song to be eligible for the charts it no longer has to be backed up by a physical single available in the shops.
So essentially, the charts you tune into on a Sunday evening will be an absolute barometer of exactly what the nation is listening to, not what the record labels have decided to release. It’s a breath of fresh air as far as I am concerned.
By the late Nineties, the record industry had all but killed off the music charts by engineering it to their own ends.
They marketed and released records in such a way that they could predict exactly what was going to be in the Top 5. However, the punters got savvy and lost interest.
The changes put the charts back in the hands of the punters. For example, if an advert comes on telly with a great soundtrack, like the great jeans commercials of the Eighties with the likes of Louis Armstrong and Jackie Wilson, then it’s likely those old tracks will go back into the charts.
And if The Beatles back catalogue is made available digitally for download, you could have a Top 20 made up entirely of great Fab Four records.
It also creates an opening for quirky and innovative records like White Town’s Your Woman in 1997, made by some bloke in his bedroom and picked up by radio.
And if there is a big cultural event, for instance the death of a big star, then there’s every likelihood there will be a surge of downloads that will push them posthumously to No1.
A band like the Towers Of London may suddenly enter the charts on the back of Donny Tourette being in Celebrity Big Brother.
The downside is, of course, we could also see 2002s dreadful No3 DJ by H & Claire back in the charts for the same reason.
The change will be gradual but some bands will benefit straight away. I have heard that Snow Patrol’s brilliant track Chasing Cars is going back in the Top 10 this week, despite the fact it was released last July.
Over the coming months I think the changes will reignite the nation’s passion and change the face of the charts forever.
The great British public love to be surprised, and that is something the old Top 40 used to do.
I reckon the magic of listening to the Top 40 on a Sunday evening is back on track.
Mark Goodier presented the Radio 1 Top 40 singles charts from 1991-2002. He now hosts shows on Radio 2 and Classic FM. |

Richard Allinson would probably have some old Disco lights from his Gary Davis days...
Russell Brand would have to have one of these ultra violet insect lights
and maybe Mark Radcliffe has a flickering fluorescent tube.. Errr err rerm errrr
Johnnie wouldn't have to bother with anything, he just radiates a golden glow.. |
