Among the many exciting things that happened this year I can’t forget the times that I have been driving around the country, twisting the radio dial and heard one of my own songs blasting from a station. Once I heard “Undone” between “Roxanne” and “With or Without You”. Another time I heard “Rise” right after “Let if Be”. And driving through Baltimore I heard the last 30 seconds of “Boom Boom” and then a nice little rant about how everyone should check out “Back Flipping Forward” from the DJ.
It is one of those sweet highlights in my week when I hear that or when someone tells me they heard a song on a station. Radio still has a romantic quality. So thank you radio spinners and radio listeners. To many more in 2008. If you want to reach out to you station be my guest. Here are some of the stations giving a lot of love around the country.
