  2. Well, "on the radio" isnt about listening to music so it didn't fit the criteria. I am not familiar with the other two.

  3. The radio was central to how I learned of and heard new music in my youth! And I spent a lot of time taping songs off the radio on my little cassette recorder because I didn't have a lot of money to buy 45s.

  5. PILOT OF THE AIRWAVES by Charlie Dore
    HAVING A PARTY by Sam Cooke (in which he requests the DJ to play I KNOW and SOUL TWIST)

  6. Roadrunner by Jonathan Richman? I'm guessing you read Sarah Vowell's collection of essays Radio On, in which this song plays a big part. Worth reading if you haven't, especially at this time in this world.
