A mate of mine (not on MS) is the usual programmer for SWR’s Awesome 80s. If you like forgotten hits I recommend listening to SWR’s Inphase between 1000-1200 Saturday mornings.

Strut / Sheena Easton last night on 4KQ. Bit of a surprising song for them, especially as I was on AM 693 - I was driving through the tunnels and no DAB in there :frowning:

Dress You Up - Madonna

Just played on WSFM Sydney.

Great to hear an a Madonna song on the radio that isn’t “Express Yourself” or “Like A Prayer”.

I would like to hear them play “Burning Up” though!

As a runner it will now have significance to me, it gets played before the cock crows and the gun is fired to start the odyssey from Durban to Pietermaritzburg (or the reverse as next year will be) known as the Comrades Marathon.

I heard “I’ll Find My Way Home” by Vangelis on 4BRZ back in August.

The Old Man Down The Road - John Fogarty

Right now on 2LT Lithgow (via their 101.1 repeater in the Blue Mountains).

Some from the last couple of days courtesy of the Rebellious guys from the top of Tamborine Mtn:

Violent Femmes - Kiss Off (I actually cannot remember the last time I heard a VF song that wasn’t Blister)
Tool - Stinkfist (a fantastic song, but almost becoming a regular on said station)
Jimi Hendrix - Little Wing (still better than the Stevie Ray or Dominoes versions for mine)
Ozzy - Crazy Train (probably part of Alice, but that Randy Rhoads guitar riff is still incredible)
