Methodology

POP is Airplay Live's 0-100 measure of how well a track holds listeners during actual broadcasts; Move is its change across the period. Cross is the channel-comparable version; Appeal is the track's raw pull. Rotation describes the observed airplay pattern since the track entered our airplay (Early / Heavy / Steady / Sparse / Building), not the station's own rotation categories or a song's chart lifecycle. Song-level plays only (60-1140s, non-music and long mixes excluded). Audience is the average and peak concurrent online listeners for the period, not cume. Times are in the station's home timezone (London (BST)).

Song-level plays only (60-1140s, non-showmix, non-break). Tune-out rate is mean ratio_adj (signed, lower is better). No cume: audience is average/peak concurrent online listeners.
