From over here in Chicago, on 94.7 WLS’s 80s weekend:
Physical - Olivia Newton-John
Gets a mention partly because she’s an Aussie being played on a US station…
Now Playing: Take Me Home Tonight - Eddie Money
The opposite to ONJ’s - a song you’re more likely to hear over here than back home.

I prefer 100.3 WSHE (Adult Contemporary Females) and KHITS 104.3 is a better classic hits station than WLS IMO.

K Hits isn’t a bad listen either.
Will also give WSHE a bit more of a go then.

Taking a job on the Gold Coast has a few perks - you get a lot more time with the radio on for one. These four tracks all played during my commute home tonight:
Derek and the Dominoes - Little Wing
Weezer - Say It Ain’t So
Eddie Money - Shakin
The Who - Baba O’Riley
The last two may have been Alice Cooper-influenced, but still some interesting tracks (made me forgive the Fall Out Boy in amongst them). No prizes for guessing which station they all featured on
Lenny Kravitz,“Believe”,1993,River 94.9 today,he had some great hits in the late 80s/ mid-90s

Yeah some good tracks there, particularly love the Icehouse number (one of their lesser-played songs) and the Waterboys tune which is excellent. I actually caught Whole of the Moon on River a little while ago, nice to hear it go around.
That Pet Shop Boys number always seems to find its way into my head whenever I venture south of the river in this fair city too. Good song
I heard that track,“Whole of the Moon” on River one day last week,great song👍
Gold FM are pulling out the 80s today - here’s the last three songs played:
James Reyne - Fall of Rome
Heart - Alone
Icehouse - Crazy
As usual with any solo hit from James Reyne you can’t understand the lyrics,I did like most of his solo hits though

Digital radio should have been a big advantage for artists like James Reyne, with sub titles to appear in the scrolling text.
