also the last song played on what was then Mix 101.1 in Melbourne before they changed name to KIIS FM.
Not heard on radio today but in the shopping centre. Not counting the times I played it on the radio about 15 years ago, I havenât heard this on radio since late 1993. A great, long forgotten tune. https://youtu.be/Enmgh8y8AKk?si=wpeAuoPanhDPJHw4
What a song that was!!! I remember it very well. Great song!
A song to play when youâre having an attack of hayfever.
âSneeze, Iâve got that sneeze.â

7 Seconds by Youssou NâDour and Neneh Cherry (GHR this morning). Havenât heard for a while.

An example of a song that would never chart now
Heard bits of the Kasey Casem Top 40 on 2NUR today (from this week in 1987).
Got to hear these rare gems
La Bamba - Los Lobos
When Smokey Sings - ABC
Something Real - Mr Mister
(was only a minor hit here, I havenât heard that on the radio since⌠well 1987!)
Youâre Only Human - Billy Joel (a Long Distance Dedication)
Itâs A Sin - Pet Shop Boys
Breakout - Swing Out Sister
I Heard A Rumour - Bananarama
Causing A Commotion - Madonna
âSecond Chanceâ (1989) by 38 Special,this morning on The Breeze of course.No other station would play this song today
Iâve heard some of .38 Specialâs other stuff on Rebel, too (that track is probably the only one suitable for Breeze). Most of their stuff is Southern Rock/AOR and sounds great on the radio. Naturally they are a Conga Line staple.
Heard âMarvellousâ by the 12th Man on Triple Mâs OZTober GOAT Top 100 Countdown an hour ago. A seldom played song these days but topped the Aria charts in 1992!
M-A-R-V-E-LL-O-U-S!
Another great song I heard on The Breeze last weekend:
âVictimsâ ,Culture Club (1983)
