I Kissed A Girl - Katy Perry The station I listen to has been playing Chained To The Rhythm non stop since it came out, but has yet to play Bon Appétit. This was a nice surprise to hear

Just heard the station I listen to (which is the main one for the city) play One Last Time for the first time They now play it as if it is a new single. They have a listener voted top ten at ten pm and it was #1 last night Carly Rae Jepsen - I Really Like You. Just heard it on another station's hourly "five hits in a row"

Last week I heard Peter Cetera & Crystal Bernard's "(I Wanna Take) Forever Tonight" on Easy, and it pretty much made my day!

I heard Missy Elliott's "Funky Fresh Dressed" from Under Construction on my city's R&B station, only they called it "Turn The Volume Up." This was before Gossip Folks was announced as the follow up to "Work It" Was it during a mix show because KKBT (100.3 The Beat) played it for a couple weeks back in late 2002. Tight song.

WDRE in Binghamton played 99 Red Balloons by Goldfinger a few days ago. Weird, I don't even think that was a single.

I heard Bon Appetit on my local hit radio station last night, never heard it before and thought I'd never hear it since it flopped but it followed Ed Sheeran and I was pleasantly surprised.

I've heard Clairity's DNA on a Clarksville radio station on and off for a while. But to be fair, I think it was because she was from White House, Tennessee.

I know we have a gold-based AC now but I've never listened to it all that much. I'm not sure. I guessed it was Mix 103.3, but I looked at what they played and I didn't see it there. Looking back took time because I had to click to load more after every 10 songs. I went bowling at Ideal Bowling Center in Endicott. Have you been there? It's on Jennings Street just west of Route 26 and just north of the train tracks.

Capital Letters by Hailee Steinfeld a bunch of times The Bad Blood album version by Taylor Swift. I've heard this a surprising amount in one of the Hot AC stations. You can tell just how much Kendrick adds to that song.

The station I listen to uses lyrics from songs to make their ads (kind of like a mashup but usually just one song and then the voiceover person). They have used songs before they don’t play like Replay by Zendaya, but I heard an especially weird one the other night. Stay Together by Noah Cyrus, which barely did anything in the US, let alone here in Ireland (they used the “go head and turn it up” lyric)

My pop station plays whatever they want late at night, the weirdest song I heard was Gucci Gang. Which I never thought I would hear on the radio, let alone pop radio.

My local AC station played Air Supply's "All Out Of Love" yesterday morning. While it's not exactly obscure, it's certainly not something you hear much on FM radio these days.
