Nine Radio (Music)

How can you tell? List of songs haven’t been published yet!

Well there’s twice as many songs for a start… Based on last year’s 4BH countdown it wasn’t bad, but the 4KQ Easter countdown went a lot deeper in terms of rarer hits.

Strange 2ue is not doing the easter top 500 as well for some reason

Oops for Ace Radio. It looks like they forgot to take down the voting page for the Magic 1278 Easter 500 countdown even though the voting is now closed

Here’s the 4BH list 500 to 11.

And Magic 1287 list 500 to 11.

4KQ’s Easter countdown was based on Brisbane charts so featured many songs that were ‘big in Brisbane’. Cloudland favorites that gave the locals lots of warm fuzzies.

4BH’s countdown is just a reflection of their everyday playlist. For example, every time BBQ Bob plays Elvis he says ‘4BH, Brisbane’s home of the King’, so there’s plenty of Elvis in there. But no obscure Brisbane bands from the 70s, because 4BH doesn’t play that sort of tat.

Another song that seems to be popular in Brisbane is Rock Lobster by the B-52s.

It’s a real stinker of a song.
