I am now convinced! 10 minutes to showtime, and Sirius XM is playing "My Love"!!! We should start a pool and guess what it will be next week. Sorry I ever doubted you, skuncle! It's not just on Saturday, it's done before the show on Sunday morning as well. It's almost always a McCartney track, but sometimes it's a Beatles or Beatles related song. So there could be two possible answers (three if you include the early Monday morning airing).

The early Monday morning airing starts at 11pm here. I'm not up early enough for the early Sunday morning show, and not up late enough for the Sunday night show. But, I might add that you are listening way too much if you are monitoring all of these shows every week just to hear if they play a McCartney song. Would Suzy and the Red Stripes count?

I don't listen to all three, depending on my schedule I either listen to the Saturday afternoon show or the Sunday morning airing. Most of the time it's Sunday morning.

JJ was so excited to say it was going to be 1972 -- right after they had finished playing this week's show! Guess he was ready to move on! lol

And there's "Long and Winding Road" before the 1972 Saturday morning countdown...I'm convinced too!

To admit it, only 20% of the songs on the countdown this week are in SXM's regular song rotation. No wonder why this channel has gone downhill since the merger.

Likely 4/13/74 is the show for next week.

Yep--I feel like XM pre-merger used to play a great selection of songs on so many of their channels. It was one of the main reasons to subscribe--you got something different than you'd hear on commercial radio. Now, post merger, that has gone away and you get a similar rotation of songs that you'd hear on many FM radio stations of the same format.

Sirius XM Trivia Time!
I heard a song today, on 70's on 7, which was appropriate as it was a huge hit in the 70's.
And I've also heard it on Soul Town, as it is indeed very soulful.
And I've heard it on Studio 54, as it is oh-so-danceable!
And, I've heard it on Clasic Vinyl, since it got a lot of play on rock radio back in the day.
And, lastly, I heard it on The Bridge, their haven for soft pop gloss'n'dross.
Can you name the song?

Oh, wow, this board knows its stuff! It was indeed "Lowdown", and it didn't feel out of place on any of those channels. I think the same would be true for "What a Fool Believes", too. I'm not sure that "Stayin Alive" was heard on rock radio back in the day, and might be a little to upbeat for The Bridge, but it certainly cut across many demographics.
On a side note, I would like to ask: What the hell is that First Wave channel supposed to be? What do "Love is the Drug", "Hold Me Now" and "I Want to Be Sedated" have to do with each other? I can't figure out that room at all!
