Song information
Much more down to earth than the last one I posted. I know there's folks who can relate to the subject matter. I used to very much classic rock stations before their format got super restricted and a lot of songs I used to enjoy hearing have all but disappeared.

Lyrics
It's your favorite station you found it just today
You know you can count on them with a different song everyday
But you weren't prepared
When you least expected
Now it's the same song every day and it just numbs your mind

Why don't you call to ask to hear your favorite songs again
They might accommodate you if they don't care if they lose their jobs
Gotta listen again to Love Shack
Van Morrison's Brown Eyed Girl
Don't Stop Beliving
Another verse of American Pie

You should know by now
They're powerless it's true
They can't decide for themselves what goes out to you
Best thing to do rather than scream or shout
Is find all the other tunes everyone forgot about

Cause your friends will call to ask to hear their favorite songs again
And they'll accommodate them, cause they request the same song every time

Hit Me With Your Best Shot
Summer of '69
Tom Petty's Freefalling
Living on A Prayer

It was your favorite station you know that it's true
Now you play it in your car with nothing better to do
Sorry but most people, when it comes to their music
Don't really care what else might be out there

Why don't you call to ask to hear your favorite songs again
They might accommodate you if they don't care if they lose their jobs
Cause your friends will call to ask to hear their favorite songs again
And they'll accommodate them, cause they request the same song every time

Really nice guitar playing. I certainly agree with the lyrics. I gave up listening to the radio years ago.

I miss the early days of FM radio, when you could hear a little of everything. I completely gave up on radio by 1980. Never looked back. Screw those corporate bast*rds who ruin everything by their insatiable greed.
I put over 3000 tunes from all genres on my car flash-drive. At home I've made my own radio CDs. A guys' gotta do what a guys' gotta do! There... I've had my little rant! Lol...
A fine piece of music this! VERY much enjoyed Mark!

Radio stations exists in two flavours
- Those that are playing what the big labels tell them to play. Same new boring songs that all sound the same
- Those that optimize for add revenue and only play the same few hundred old songs over and over again
Gone are the days with independent radio disk jockeys that had an oppinion and tried to make us listen to something new.
Very good song.

Do they still have djs?  Goes hand in with the autotune 'singers'.. Beautiful playing here, Mark.  'find the tunes everyone forgot about' is exactly what I do and find old ones I never heard before. I like how you included so many song titles of the past. In an alternative universe, we'd be listening to you on the radio- but here is good enough
