Does this mean that stations can't play them? For example, why isn't 'Since U Been Gone' in recurrent rotation? What do songs have to do to achieve this?

Stations can play whatever they want. After a certain amount of time, recurrents are moved to gold status. The standards may be inconsistent. www.mmr247.com/mmrweb/AllAccess/Charts.asp?format=H1R&cutoff=0&showtopn=2000&showyear=y&dpt=n&grc=r has the Mainstream Top 40 recurrent chart and www.mmr247.com/mmrweb/AllAccess/Charts.asp?format=H1R&cutoff=0&showtopn=2000&showyear=y&dpt=n&grc=g has the Mainstream Top 40 gold chart. Both charts give the year for every song.

I like a lot of songs that got little or no airplay.
