What are you listening to? (merged)

[El Chuxter]

After making one too many cracks about Duff McKagen, I dug out 1993's Believe in Me. Man. I forgot how incoherent that man is, and how, every single time you think he's got a solid song, he throws in some nonsensical swearing and blabbers on about having a "bottle in my han'!!"

That could be the greatest solo album by a member of GNR... if only it were an instrumental album.

Night Train, James Brown!

Followed by (man, I can't believe how close to the ends of these songs get right when I post in this thread):

It's Too Funky In Here, James Brown!

JB's disco silliness always makes me smile, it's dopey as hell but he goes for it anyway.

Oh no, Chuxter. I heard at least NINE heavily rotated songs on Jack. And they were:

"You Spin Me Round [Like a Record]" - Dead or Alive
"Circle in the Sand" - Belinda Carlisle
"Around the World" - Red Hot Chili Peppers
"Run Around Sue" - Dion
"Round and Round" - RATT
"Running In Circles" - The Churchills
"Dizzy" - Goo Goo Dolls
"Around the World" - Das Punk
"Runaround" - Blues Traveler

"Round and Round" - RATT
"Running In Circles" - The Churchills
"Dizzy" - Goo Goo Dolls
"Around the World" - Das Punk
"Runaround" - Blues Traveler

I detect a theme there. If it were my station, I'd be playing "Circles" by Soul Coughing, and "Runnin' Around" by the B-52's.

I seem to hear "Janie's Crying" far more than is healthy on Jack, and on other LA channels. I never thought before I moved here that I could get sick of Roth-era Van Halen.

[JediTricks]

Yes, that tune DOES come up a whole lot on the Jack. There's another Roth-era VH tune they have overplay to be considered tiresome, but I can't remember what.


Playing on my computer right now: Electric Eye (with The Hellion intro mixed in), Judas Priest

I hear their cover of "Oh Pretty Woman" on it quite often. Surprisingly, very little of their 1984-era stuff, though.

Winds of Change ~ Scorpions.

That's the one, I'm pretty sure that's the song I was thinking of. I don't even understand how this is possible, they don't have a programming director most of the time, it's a computer bank.


Rubberband Man, The Spinners.

I picked up the Essential Daryl Hall and John Oates today, and it's current on :clap: "Private Eyes." Listen to :clapclap: every note.

I didn't know they originally did "Everytime You Go Away;" I think Paul Young's cover is better, sorry.
