One song--how many stations?

P

placebo1969

I'm curious, how many stations in Seattle would play the same song? In my car, I'm a terrible channel changer and can hear the same song on various stations. I've heard AC/DC's "You Shook Me All Night Long" on at least 4 stations (KJAQ, KISW, KZOK and even KPLZ). What other songs can you think would be played on the most (or least) stations?
 
Carrie Underwood 'Jesus Take The Wheel': KMPS, KKWF, KNBQ, KCMS (maybe more?)
 
Crossovers like Underwood would probably get the highest number of multi-format plays. "Some Hearts" has impacted A/C so Warm and Star probably play it.

From the pop world - Natasha Bedingfield's "Unwritten". It's been on Movin, Star, Kiss and Warm.
 
Green Day "Boulevard" is on seven: Kiss, Funky Monkey, KISW, Jack, Mountain, The End + Star.
Dani California is on all of those stations too except Jack.
Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams" on Jack, KJR-FM, Mountain, End, Star and Warm.
 
Gnarls Barkley - Crazy: KISS/C89.5/STAR/MOUNTAIN/END/JACK. Previously on FUNKY & KUBE.

Cool. I didn't think about the Green Day song.

I didn't know they played "Sweet Dreams" on KJR. ???

Thanks for the responses everyone.
 
KUBE, KBKS, KQMV, KNHC and KVTI:

Nelly Furtado's "Promiscuous":
Mary J. Blige's "Be Without You"
Rihanna's "S.O.S"
Beyonce's "Check On It"
 
Dixie Chicks "Not Ready To Make Nice"... KMPS, The Wolf, KISS, Jack, KPLZ, others?

Speaking of the Chicks, have you happened to check their new website out? It's pretty crazy. Go into the "Dixie Chicks Underground". Pretty cool stuff.
 
I'm gonna have to disagree with the Dixie Chicks. Before the TIME magazine article came out about the chicks, this might have been true, but now, no.

I checked the Mediabase playlists for both KMPS and KKWF, no Dixie Chicks, if those stations do play the chicks, it's their older stuff. Nothing off their new album.

Ever since they opened their mouths about 'not wanting to be in the same 5 disc changer as Toby Keith and Reba McEntire' in the TIME magazine article, country radio has pretty much brushed 'em aside.
 
Sept. '83 - just moved to Seattle. Set the six pushbuttons. "King Of Pain" (Police) was on all six at the same time. And a seventh, as I tried to escape.

Thankfully, there was KYYX, but that's a story for a different thread.
 
Segues ---(pronounced 'seg-ways')

How about the same SEGUES - of the exact same 2 songs back-to-back -
-during the exact same time - on 2 Seattle rock stations?!

In 1975 KISW and KZOK did just this with the exact same 'segue' of
Free's "Wishing Well" - into Procol Harum's "Bringing Home The Bacon"...

I forget who the jocks were at the time, but that HAD to have been pre-planned...:)

Probably is the BEST segue of 2 70's rock tunes ever, because the drumming beat fade
at the end of Free's tune - is PRECISELY in beat - to the drumming start of 'Bacon'....

..a mix that was easily guaranteed to sound great - with the vinal LP's back then...
