When WCPR 97.9 in Biloxi was changing formats back in '95(I think),they looped "Only Wanna Be With You" by Hootie and the Blowfish for about 24 hours.
Ironically, they ended up being one of the edgiest radio stations I've ever listened to...

Sounds like the radio version of Paul Rudd introducing clips from his various movies over the years but then playing the same clip from Mac and Me

Remember when some BR radio station did the same thing with "Cotton-Eyed Joe" back in the 90's.

Whenever someone calls in for a request, they deny it and replay the Rage song again.


People still call their requests into radio stations? Much be a Canadian thing.

At least the band will be able to offset their 4th of July hot dog cost increase with the royalties sent in by this.

If you don’t like rage’s music, we aren’t friends. If you like rage’s politics, we aren’t friends.

I think some of it sucks

But some of it is legitimately good and somewhat unique

99.5 WRNO in 93 played Led Zeppelin Rock n Roll for days.

We sat in our Senior Ag class in the Green house with the radio playing this over and over for a few days

Same with system of a down. I love the music but their message is stupid. The irony in the music is hilarious

RATM is for edgy shitlord Commie Cork-soakers.

Morello is a Communist Piece of Dog Shite.

Ironically, he is also an unapologetic millionaire.

He's feeding idiots a lie.

I'm sure that's what it is. A Shreveport station did that with "They're Coming to Take Me Away" in the 80's.

I kind of like one song. Audioslave was 10x better than RATM.
