I’m enjoying MMM GHD… although maybe a little too much Aussie shite (like right now there’s the over-played Mark Lizote ‘right on the tip of my tongue’)…
I guess that’s why I like Absolute…
No Aussie crap.
Aussie music is the main reason why I listen to our stations.

Serious question, why the hate for Aussie music? Sure, there’s some crap but some absolute gems, just like American or British music.

In certain eras- the early 90s comes to mind- Australian Top 40 acts were the highlight. Ian Moss, Ratcat, Southern Sons etc. were a revelation compared to some of the pretty average hip hop and new jack swing originating from the US at that time.
I enjoy both versions of “You’re So Vain”- yes, I probably prefer the original, but a little (G-rated) Chocolate Starfish from time to time shouldn’t offend anyone.

Bit of the old Chocolate Starfish!
Yes I agree. There are some absolute gems. Sometimes they don’t get played unfortunately with stations sticking to a few overplayed tracks instead

One of my top 10 pop songs from the 90s, that. A fantastic feel-good track and the very definition of a one-hit wonder.

Giving 1SM a spin. Goodness Gracious Me - Peter Sellers & Sophie Loren
Interesting song. They don’t make songs like that today.
Ace Frehley - New York Groove on Triple M GHD… sounding awesome…
So much better than the original… yet still reminds me of Liberty Radio (GTA V).

Ah you beat me to it!! Was driving home on the motorway this arvo when Back In The New York Groove came on MMM GHD. It was awesome!
They even followed it up with Raspberry Beret, which I know gets played all the time but still love it, especially the start.
Ace Frehley made my commute!

I think Jackson Browne is very much under played in this country. He was played a lot in the 80s on FM104 and I also recall hearing him on Adelaide radio in the mid 90s. He’s got a lot of great songs.

A good list. Since ACE are taking over in November - have they already made the move and sacked their PD/MD in Wangaratta? Because there is no way the PD/MD who was controlling both stations would play those type of songs.
