A few lesser-played tracks broadcast during the last week:
What You Get is What You See - TINA TURNER (1986) on 92.7 Mix FM*
Not Enough Time - INXS (1992) on 90.5 Rebel FM
If I Die Young - THE BAND PERRY (2010) on 92.1 Breeze FM
*This is of course was part of the 80’s August (SCA LocalWorks’ feature) but it was broadcast during local weekday programming (different to 92.5 Gold FM).
Stay - Oingo Boingo
Playing right now on Southern Cross’s Local Works stations due to the “Awesome 80s” August weekends.

Heartbreaker/Pat Benatar - one of her best!
Not surprised you heard it on Rebel. Probably the only station that would play that one, perhaps 4MMM.
Strangely enough they play that one quite a bit on “classic hits” stations in the US. I heard it a couple of times on K-Earth in LA. I noticed the classic hits stations in LA like K-Earth and KOLA play a bit more album rock from time to time.
Triple M were flogging Heartbreaker for a while about 6 months ago

“How Do You Talk To An Angel” by The Heights on Star 104.5 this afternoon.
At the risk of sounding like a sweeper, I don’t remember the last time I’ve heard that in the Sydney / Newcastle / Woolinging / Central Coast region in a very long time!
It sounded fantastic in my car too, a lot clearer and brighter than I remember. But that could just be some enhancements Star are adding.
To each their own mrworldwide 
That one’s a station-changer for me but everyone’s different

The Man With The Child In His Eyes / Kate Bush today on Smooth Brisbane.
IMHO it’s songs like that that are the key to Smooth’s success - real rare and unexpected tracks from time to time.

Heart In Danger- SOUTHERN SONS (2GN/2XL). A great Aussie classic, and a sentimental favourite too as it was one of the first songs I remember on radio from early childhood.

I particularly like Natalie Cole’s pop version of the Boss’s song too!
