THE
CHILLER IS:
An oustanding
song,
cool in mood and tempo that is rarely heard on the
radio, therefore "cool to play" and features a truly
exceptional vocal performance that sends a cold shiver
down the spine causing the hairs on the back of your
neck stand up.
THE
CHILLER IS
NOT:
A song
that gets played frequently on the radio or has ever been
the first dance at a chav wedding reception. "Three Times
A Lady" by the Commodores "My Heart Will Go On" by
Celine Dion and any song by Whitney Houston or
Mariah Cary are specifically excluded from
"The Chiller".
"The
Chiller" is played just after Baker's choice and before
the weekly mix. It is advisable to turn the lights down
low, close you eyes and have a glass of grape-based
refreshment in hand (please drink
responsibly).
How "The Chiller" was
introduced to the show
Till
recently, the show had only ever played mid-to-up-tempo
dance tunes, but a request from a listener to play
Marlena Shaw's classic "Go away little boy" hit a nerve
with Les. This is one of his all time favorite songs and
vocal performances and whilst it was seemingly out of
context, Les' love of this song was too much to resist
playing it.
This
prompted thoughts about other great vocal performances
and songs he would love to play on-air so "The Chiller"
was created.
