Will always remind me of the 2004 film EuroTrip!
Normally WSFM/Gold rarely play songs as recent or as new as this. Maybe theyâre going in a new direction as far as their music is concerned?
Wouldnât be surprised if they started playing (for example) âFlowersâ by Miley Cyrus on the station soon enough.

âFlowersâ is a good pop song and would sit well in their playlist⌠But there would only be a handful of recent songs Iâd include⌠Taylor Swifts âLove Storyâ is another.

I think thereâs definitely room to skew a little younger in some of their music rotate. Chappell Roan has a 80s sound which wonât feel too out of place on air.
They play The Scriptâs Hall of Fame and that was released four years after Love Story.

These days, that song only gets played infrequently on C91.3FM (in Sydney) and Hope 103.2 (which also sometimes plays âSuperheroesâ as well).
Anyway, I got to see The Script in Sydney on Thursday night and they closed their show with that song, as they also did in 2022.

The Moody Blues - Nights in White Satin was played on Triple J just nearly 40 minutes ago. A symphonic rock classic but kind of unusual for a youth station to play this during JJJâs current era.

Lovefool by The Cardigans playing on 2NUR Newcastle 103.7 FM just now.
I think thatâs a good fit for their music format really.

Whilst driving home from work this evening i had 2NUR FM on and one of the songs that played was Everywhere You Go by Taxiride. Wouldnât have thought that would be one on their playlist.

They play heaps of stuff that you donât hear anywhere else.
Probably not really âeasy listeningâ but a lot of their songs arenât either.
I prefer 2NUR over Triple M.

At around 1:00 PM yesterday as I was listening to NEW FM 105.3 FM when I was on my lunch break, they preceded Bryan Adamsâ âCanât Stop This Thing We Startedâ with the NEW FM âEighties Flashbackâ bumper (which had Doc Brown from Back to The Future shouting âGreat Scott!â). Little did the folks at NEW FM know that the aforementioned song was released in 1991, Two years after the eighties ended. Surely they wouldâve played âRun To You,â âHeavenâ or the umpteenth playing of âSummer of â69â, but nope.

Interestingly I recently attended a Bryan Adams concert and the 80s songs that got the biggest audience response were Somebody and Cuts Like A Knife

Itâs a pity you canât stop this course theyâve plotted.
Definitely from 1991 as I remember it on Rage. Donât remember anything from prior to 1990.

Just right about now, New FM 105.3 and HIT 106.9 Newcastle were playing Bed Chem by Sabrina Carpenter both at just at the same time.

Nothing against him nor the song, but at 7:12pm on smooth 95.3 I heard âWant to Want Meâ by Jason Derulo. Donât think Iâd ever heard his music on the station before.
