Great songs heard on radio

That’s a great Eurgliders song!

Listening to Gold 104.3 via streaming right now and they’ve just played the 12 inch version of Cliff Richard and The Young Ones “Living Doll” (though the cut out some of the intro :worried: ).,… so they only really played about 10 inches, but better than 7 inches :blush:.

An early 00s one I haven’t heard for a while…

“Starlight” - The Supermen Lovers

Playing right now on MIX106.3 (thanks to a bit of ‘tropo’)

Go to Hell - Alice Cooper on 4KQ’s “Living in the 70’s”

Meatloaf,“Bat out of Hell”,Triple M Brisbane today.enjoying the classic rock format

Cornflake Girl by Tori Amos on Triple M Brisbane. Apparently this was a mistake according to Mitch in the Morning.

Bette Midler- Beast Of Burden. The Edge Wangaratta today. Say what you will, but I’ve always enjoyed this cover and it’s pretty rare to hear it.

Michael Jackson, "Man in the Mirror "
Bros "When will I Be Famous ":blush:
River 94.9 yesterday, shame about the crap reception I have on my radio at work sometimes, on this station
Kiss,“Shout it Out Loud”,Triple M today

Funny you should say that. That song just aired on Now FM Moree, Love Songs at Night (and the rest of the Caralis FM network) right as I read this post.

“Simon Smith and His Amazing Dancing Bear” on Oldies FM today. Haven’t heard that song in decades. That station throws up some interesting lost gems every time I’m in the broadcast area. Heard “Come Monday”, also. When was the last time you heard a Jimmy Buffet song on the radio?

As part of their regular Sunday Morning 60s, this morning 4KQ play a song Sneaky vs Red Knight. The story was that the song Snoopy vs The Red Baron had a number of copyright issues and that in Canada “snoopy” was not able to be used at all so the Royal Guarsdmen has to record a special version and that’s what they played this morning. There are often a few interesting pieces of history that the show brings up and some very rare versions of songs are sometimes heard. Discussed this morning were the number of Australian hits that had The Johnny Young Singers as backing.

Santana,"Well Alright ",Triple M Brisbane today

Played back to back today on Now FM Moree;
Limp Bizkit - My Way &
Seether - Fine Again

And over the weekend; Frida - There’s something going on (which I’d say was on the network)

The Newcastle Song :grinning: - 4KQ Easter Countdown

Funnily enough, I remember that being played quite often on the old Kiss FM (95.3) around the time it started. Always reminds me of Sunny Corner, ha. It’s a good tune.

Another good late 90s song heard around 5.30pm today on Star 104.5

I Don’t Want To Wait - Paula Cole

Well, it’s taken a while during their “Egg-cellent 80s” Easter long weekend, but WSFM have finally played a great 80s song that I haven’t heard them play before

I Can’t Wait - Nu Shooz

Another great 80s song (so soon after the last one) that WS rarely plays, is playing right now!

Shout To The Top - Style Council

Where else would you hear Farewell Aunty Jack but the 4KQ Ester countdown!

The Monitors- Singing In The 80s. WS FM now. No doubt part of the Easter special. Sounds like it’s off vinyl too!
