Apologies for my ignorance, but what is 4TAB2?
4TAB2 is a temporary DAB+ station in Brisbane, which is supplementary to 4TAB (Radio TAB). They usually operate around Christmas Day & Good Friday, with the main station, which is also relayed across QLD, NT, SA & Tasmania, airing the same programming as 4TAB2 on Christmas Day.
I wish our equivalent racing station in NSW, Sky Sports Radio (2KY), did the same thing as Radio TAB, but they kept airing the races on all their stations, even on Christmas Day.
4TAB2 is on DAB year round as a supplement to 4TAB on digital in Brisbane only. They usually have racing on throughout the year too but play music over the holidays
They also play some old 4IP jingles too when playing music.
On Smooth right nowā¦
perfect song for the formatā¦
And is commonly played on the above station too.
The Stereo 10 JAMS jingles are greatā¦ when I was a kid C93FM had them as wellā¦ (as did Radio 1 and KIIS)ā¦
Interestingly 2SM, 2NX and 3XY never went with the JAMSā¦
Sadlyā¦ they donāt seem to on this time? Just v/o idents from the 1990sā¦
I heard Head Over Heels by Tears For Fears on Coles Radio while shopping this afternoon.
A song which is played quite frequently but I still love it and donāt think iāll ever get sick of it. I donāt understand why I love it so much, but I just do. Heard a couple of people humming it in the store as well.
Funnily enough I was shopping at Coles Toowong this afternoon and heard it tooā¦
Also rather interesting (mildly)ā¦ I found myself randomly singing it some three hours later while watering the gardenā¦
I heard it in a Coles in Victoria, we must have been shopping at the same time in two different states! Proves that the playlists must be pretty much the same Australia wide.
Heard on Coles Radio this afternoon, not while shopping but listening at home!
50 Years - Uncanny X-Men (first song played when I put it on!)
Round and Round - Spandau Ballet
Hammerhead - James Reyne
Cruise Control - Headless Chickens
All great songs!
I should listen to that on DAB more often (and I probably would if it wasnāt for the crappy bit rates)
Just heard
Send Me An Angel - Real Life
On WSFMā¦ Worth a plug here since itās not often heard on radio these days.
View to a kill - DD. Right now on 4TAB TWO.
The thumping drumsā¦ the pounding guitarsā¦ love itā¦
Nothing obscure (as far as tracks go)ā¦ but still seldom heard these days.
Sure your dial wasnāt locked to 23FM? āGot a hammerhead and I live on the coastā¦ā
ā¦āso indisposed, yo been missing gnocchiā¦ā
Canāt wait for the English language version
I just canāt get āyouāve been hanging with the nicest peopleā from that no matter how often I listen to that song. Always actually hear it as something about gnocchi
My favourite Bond theme song by quite a margin
First time I heard the song, I thought it was āYouāve been hanging with the Napisan peopleā
Over and over (I get up again) / Madonna on 4TAB TWO (4IP). I havenāt heard that song on the radio sinceā¦ever! An album track from her first album. Iām not sure it was ever released as a single.
