Someone must've put the wrong playlist in the queue.
Perhaps not a particularly nostalgic throwback as some others, but here's a little rewind - the "Top Songs" list from April 6, 2016 (when it was archived), a month after Radio Disney launched that specific page. These songs are sorted by added most to least recently and the number would fluctuate, but it was always around 50.
1. DNCE - Pay My Rent 2. Panic! At The Disco - Victorious 3. Ariana Grande - Dangerous Woman 4. Megan Nicole - Mascara 5. Nick Carter - 19 in 99 6. Laura Marano - Boombox 7. Justin Bieber - Company 8. Meghan Trainor - NO 9. That Poppy - Lowlife 10. The Chainsmokers* - Don't Let Me Down (feat. Daya) 11. Kelly Clarkson - Piece By Piece 12. R5 - Dark Side 13. Hailee Steinfeld - Rock Bottom (feat. DNCE) 14. Kelsea Ballerini - Peter Pan 15. Outasight - Boogie 16. Lukas Graham - 7 Years 17. Taylor Swift - New Romantics 18. Sabrina Carpenter - Smoke and Fire 19. L2M - Girlz 20. The Ready Set - Good Enough 21. We The Kings - The Story of Tonight 22. Nelly - Die A Happy Man 23. Gwen Stefani - Make Me Like You 24. James Bay - Let It Go 25. Tryon - Somebody To Love Me 26. Rihanna - Work (feat. Drake) 27. Dan + Shay - From The Ground Up 28. Zara Larsson - Never Forget You (feat. MNEK) 29. Hudson Thames - How I Want Ya (feat. Hailee Steinfeld) 30. One Direction - History 31. Shakira - Try Everything 32. The Girl and the Dreamcatcher - Glowing In The Dark 33. Zendaya - Neverland 34. Alessia Cara - Wild Things 35. Pitbull - Freedom 36. Robin Schulz - Sugar (feat. Francesco Yates) 37. Troye Sivan - Youth 38. Ellie Goulding - Something in the Way You Move 39. Adele - When We Were Young 40. Daya - Sit Still, Look Pretty 41. Ruth B - Lost Boy 42. Carson Lueders - Pop 43. Shawn Hook - Sound Of Your Heart 44. Nathan Sykes - Over and Over Again (feat. Ariana Grande) 45. Twenty One Pilots - Stressed Out 46. Dawin - Dessert 47. Tori Kelly - Hollow 48. The Chainsmokers* - Roses (feat. Rozes) 49. Meghan Trainor - Better When I'm Dancing 50.

Nice! So they include 2020 songs as well. But I was referring to when they were still "active". Apparently this playlist, excluding a few songs on the list from 2015-16, is from September 2020 as Control and Ice Cream were released as singles around that time. I guess someone had those songs in a folder somewhere and accidentally hit the play button. I also noticed that the version of Control that plays on RD, couldn’t be found anywhere on YouTube although I heard it on a few other radio stations as well.

I remember that version being labeled as Control (Up-tempo Mix) when it was on the Top Songs list.

I just stumbled across this on the internet: it’s a online fan-made station called “RD Revival” which has over 300 songs or so from throughout RD’s history, not just including the throwback playlist but also some more songs as well, and it even includes station IDs! It’s only up for a few days or so, so listen to it while you can: www.radioking.com/radio/rd-revival/Here’s a sample of some of the songs of that station’s playlist, in addition to the ones from the official throwback playlist; there’s even some current songs that would be playing: * Demi Lovato - Confident * Camila Cabello - First Man * Troye Sivan - My My My * Lil Peep & iLoveMakonnen feat. Fall Out Boy - I’ve Been Waiting * Ariana Grande - NASA * Randy Newman - You’ve Got A Friend in Me (from Toy Story) * Justin Bieber - Anyone * Ava Max - My Head & My Heart * Glass Animals - Heat Waves * Weezer - Beverly Hills * Jon Bellion - All Time Low * Becky G - Shower * Britney Spears - Ooh La La (from The Smurfs 2) * Chubby Checker - The Twist * Harry Styles - Treat People With Kindness * Halsey - Graveyard * H.E.R. & Tauren Wells - Hold Us Together (Hope Mix) * Fifth Harmony - Sledgehammer * Taylor Swift feat. Marren Morris - You All Over Me (From The Vault/Taylor’s Version) * Kim Petras - Icy * Miley Cyrus - Plastic Hearts * Ava Max - So Am I * The Weeknd - Save Your Tears

BREAKING NEWS!!!
After a 24 year run, followed by 102 days on life support, Disney has finally decided to pull the plug on Radio Disney on 1110 AM in Los Angeles. :(
I was first tipped off by a user on Twitter who said that RD “had shut down halfway throughout the day and [her] dad wasn’t taking it well”; I later tuned into 1110 AM later that night and I was hearing ESPN Radio so that was literally the final straw for Radio Disney.
Other than that fan made station that I mentioned above, Radio Disney is officially in the history books 🥺

superxpaul I'd like to know if your source on Twitter has any more information. This is what I remember from yesterday: I decided not to watch The View, so I turned on Radio Disney AM1110 instead at about 9:57am PT. They were playing Not Too Young, Not Too Old. I think they played the station identification. Then they started Unwritten. They didn't get all the way through it. At 10:00am ESPN Radio came on and I had to hear a guy lecture me about getting the CoVID vaccine. I turned it off, checked throughout the day, but Radio Disney was never to return... I'm glad that I got to listen on Monday, April 12, my 21st (and last) anniversary of listening to Radio Disney. Radio Disney is officially in the history books 🥺 "The rest is still unwritten..."

R.I.P. to the last (radio-based) shred of Radio Disney. I wish I could watch the Music Choice channel, but I'm sure as hell not getting cable again just for that.
The station is apparently also still available on resort TVs (possibly the same feed as Music Choice).

Anyways, I happened to listen to it for the last time on Tuesday night, flipping back and forth between that station and the unofficial RD Revival station to compare those two stations’ playlists.

We had it from 2005-2006 but it hasn't resurfaced. I know we had it then because I listened to the 2005 RD Year-End Countdown on both AM1110 and Music Choice.

Hmm...I wonder who does have it then, if anybody now. I also remember having it around that time, only for it be replaced with the "Kidz Only!" station. Their return to Music Choice in 2020 was as a video-based station, so I wonder if it'd be a station on their site?

And now apparently the fan-made station has gone down as well, probably since the creator of that station, who also runs a YT channel called “Only Clean Edits” which has a bunch of RD edited versions of songs, only had a 7-day trial of RadioKing which is a service that lets you create your own radio stations and his trail probably ran out although I heard there’s been interest in that station so he’ll probably by a month’s subscription to that service.
UPDATE: it’s back up and running again!!

Every time I come back to this thread, all the memories start flowing back through my head. Also, I started playing Julia Michaels' Lie Like This on my usual playlist because it was in that last hour of original programming. Ever since salem ilese did "Mad at Disney" now even her new song with Alan Walker makes me think of RD.

Another example of Radio Disney having their own more up-tempo version of a song that I can't find anywhere else. I actually prefer this over the original, but I wish there was a mix with the uncensored lyrics. (Might edit my own version just to put back "f**king with my head," because I really like how he says that in the original over "messing".)

That reminds me, RD also played an Uptempo version of “Lonely” by Justin Bieber and Benny Blanco even though the played the original for a couple weeks before switching to the Uptempo version. Sadly, I couldn’t find that version on YouTube as well, just the original RD version…

I just found out from a YouTube comment that you can listen to recordings of the station on the Internet Archive's page for it! They all work (for me so far at least) on the saved dates starting with the 2017 re-design here. Some days play the same recording. It appears that the Internet Archive saved the audio from the StreamTheWorld link on these dates; however, when I go directly to that link, I have no option to save the audio, only to play it "live"/from the beginning, so I have no idea how long these recordings are. I'm listening to November 30, 2019 right now. (The dates may also be inaccurate, because I heard a recording start with OSTON's "Shrug" on a 2018 page.) Here's what I've heard: Bailey Bryan - play w/ me Ashe - Moral Of The Story (feat. Niall Horan) Ananya Birla - Let There Be Love Malia Civetz - Love Thing (feat. Yung Baby Tate) kenzie - Exhale (feat. Sia)

I started listening to the new Disney Hits station on SiriusXM. Not the same, but a few similarities. I've heard songs from Camp Rock, Descendants, Hannah Montana, a couple of Mitchell Musso songs, and songs from many of the films. The oldest song I've heard so far is "Once Upon a Dream" from Sleeping Beauty.

I'd love to keep track of it weekly like I did for Radio Disney. :)

The oldest song I've heard so far is "Once Upon a Dream" from Sleeping Beauty. There's also Kids Place Live, which reminds me more of Radio AAHS than Radio Disney, but has some songs in rotation that Radio Disney has played over the years. Some examples (going through what they've played in the last day or so): Baha Men - Who Let the Dogs Out Eiffel 65 - Blue (Da Ba Dee) Fitz and The Tantrums - 123456 Hampton the Hampster - The Hampsterdance Song Hansen - MMMBop Harry Styles - Treat People With Kindness* (RD shut down before this was even sent to pop, but they'd definitely play this if they were still around and RD Revival does) High School Musical Cast - We're All in This Together Justin Timberlake - CAN'T STOP THE FEELING! (from Trolls) Keala Settle - This Is Me (from The Greatest Showman) Rascal Flatts - Life Is A Highway Smash Mouth - All Star "Weird Al" Yankovic - The Saga Begins They also play soundtrack songs from some Disney movies that I'm not sure were ever on rotation on Radio Disney.

The way things are going, it looks like Dua Lipa's "Levitating" featuring DaBaby is going to be the last number-one on pop radio that was also played on Radio Disney. Prior to that was Tate McRae's "you broke me first"!

Here’s some that hasn’t happened in a while: A giveaway on RD’s Instagram page! That’s right, they just posted a Reel taking about a giveaway for tickets to the Disney Princess Concert! Notice how she even says “Radio Disney fans” at the beginning as well… JUST BRING BACK THE STATION ALREADY!!!!! www.instagram.com/reel/CTFXKgsHcXa/

Find it very funny how a Disney girl seriously smashed in the public for the first time in years and RD went under right before they got to spin even "drivers license". Maybe the fact she's not on Hollywood Records made it not worth their effort.

Maybe the fact she's not on Hollywood Records made it not worth their effort. Yeah, had they known she would drop “driver’s license” they would’ve had her as a guest DJ and also play her other hits which at least RD Revival does a good job at doing. Also, if any of you were in charge of Radio Disney and decided to relaunch it, would you you do to make it better? I would definitely bring back the live radio format they had pre-2019 and even bring back the Insider show and the Top 30 Countdown!
