I wish I could remember lyrics so I could look them up, but I'm guessing it's what is considered Hot AC. If there were more older songs it would be Mainstream AC. Out in the mall there are more old songs, but it's been changed to what would have been called soft AC.

The orchestras, soloists and conductors still have to get paid. The centuries-old music is in public domain; the modern recordings are not.

That makes me wonder: How old does a (Classical) recording have to be until it completely falls into public domain, with nothing owed to musicians, conductors, arrangers for public performance? Does the “95 year” rule apply here? (Of course those people are likely long dead.)

I would think a “restored” version of an old recording might have a copyright, but if I were, for example, to play old original 78s on a Classical station, do I need to pay any rights fees?
 
I think it's worth a try to try to get homeless people out of the train stations people get stabbed a lot there just a couple of days ago a man was stabbed so this is on the Right track.

No. You can play 78s on your station just any other recording. Your station's reporting to ASCAP, BMI, etc. is the same.
 
Hey, if they're trying to use "Calcutta" to drive people away, it'd backfire on me. I'd be pitching a tent to listen to it, it's one of my favorite songs. And let me throw on my Casey Kasem hat for a moment: "Calcutta" was orginally written in 1958 by Heino Gaze and was called "Tivoli Melody". The German version had lyrics and was called "Kalkutta liegt am Ganges" (Calcutta lies on the Ganges). The English release also had lyrics, written by Paul Vance & Lee Pockriss. This was Lawrence Welks only # 1 record that he had on the Billboard Hot 100. And now, on with the countdown......"
