Ya think radio DJ's get ideas from listening to .

    other radio stations?

    Ya know..how one day you will hear a song ya have not heard in a coon's age, then ya hear that exact same song later that day/night or the next day on a diff station..like the DJ was listening to that channel....a competitor..and says...'dude.. love that song...i am gonna play that next day I work'.

    Heard Sister Christian by Night Ranger this weekend, on consecutive days, and haad not heard it in years....

    Dj's dont' pick songs, their computers do off of a heavily rotated list of shitty overplayed songs.

    I call these songs that are "brought out of retirement". Your theory may be a good one. I've always been convinced that songs are "re-released" for a lack of better term. Told by record companies to be played a few times. I always notice I won't hear a song for years and then hear it like 3 times in a week.

    I think its no different then when you hear a song on the radio and go home and find that CD and start playing it. I bet a DJ hears the song and says fuck it, I like that song and will play it too!

    Sister Christian.....greeeaaattt song.

    I thought this as well, i hear the same songs on the same day on different stations.

    I don't think it has anything to do about music. What I find funny is I'll hear Moe on Canton's 92.5 in the evening talk about some weird off the wall subject, and hear Maxwell on Cleveland's 98.5 talk about the same off the wall topic the next morning.
