90s on nine:

R

Radio_bored-Op

This may have been covered in the SIRIUS message board,
I just have the habit of clicking on (xm) first :

-A rare, but costly mistake...
The most common issue (and usually the most embarrassing)
is when you voice track your shift/show and your delivery
(breaks) is one off to the music you are playing - in fact,
I believe there is a famous John Cleese radio skit to this, lol

It happened on 90s, on 9 -
First break, I heard big voice, "90s on 9, #1's for the decade"
and it SAID 1990, but played Paula Adbul "rush rush" Now,
I have commented /posted before the "techie" crap about
singles/album the late 1989 airplay, versus the charts in the 1990s,(etc)
but this was the first sign of some thing going wrong.

NEXT Break:
[v.o] " 1991 big Year for EMF , it was unbelievable "
(and played ...?/ robin hood,bryan adams)... and I thought
odd but also that happens as well, on a current station
a talent will talk about . . .new movie w/ a cross over
musician/artist, then play ...say, britney- soo, while it sounded
unusual, being a radio nut, I still didnt take note.

I went in/came out of a store, and heard
EMF "unbelievable" - - okay, now i am starting to think...
( let me hear the first few breaks over again)
I think EMF ended, and it did a big ID/song to song transition
into Bryan Adams....

Next (big)voice automated sounded month/year, but did two in a row
july1990/then august 1991 and played "step by step (nkotb)
>
CONFRMED: the same programming block aired today, with the
correct breaks for the appropriate song..

How does this happen on the biggest radio station in the world ?
 
Paula Abdul's Rush Rush was from her second album Spellbound recorded in late 1990 and released in May of 1991. I do remember this one getting a lot of AirPlay that summer. So that one was somewhat right on 90s On 9. It should have read ('91) next to the title
 
well , the point of my thread:
was the whole voice track was off by one break
which was a train wreck -
it was "weird" to hear on the "biggest" radio in the stars
-
now,
the album year/single, and chart positioning
are usually three different time frames and
any of these can be credited to the artist/song
soo that is easy to explain. . .

a friend at a hot a/c station said when he
did an all 80s request show, iF he was in the
mood to hear/play an 89/90 song...
he would say
COOL > it was late '89
IF he didnt waanna hear it, he said it was early '90
(LOL)

Yet Vanilla Ice Ice Ice Baby is heard on an all 80s weekend, around 1 year or so ago on Hot AC KAMX.
From late 1990.
