Radio gaga

I listen to the radio...I am sooooo over Singapore radio. Of a morning, I used to listen to CLASS 95. The three DJs have great banter between them, often play good music and aren’t afraid to push the boundaries on the odd occasion - a rarity in Singapore. I also find Glenn Ong’s voice strangely sexy - Lord help me.

Unfortunately my drive time is 8:30am until 9am and this is when this particular radio station tends to promote things I couldn’t give a toss about - like probiotic milk, insurance and cars. But a few days ago they started going on about a hair replacement therapy. They went on and on and kept going on…

Some mornings when they are waxing lyrical about their advertisers it’s pure drivel for 30 minutes with one, yes ONE, song aired. Hey, if I wanted an infomercial I’d watch the home shopping channel. For my morning drive I want great tunes, a few laughs and some news - that’s it.

So now I listen to my iPod or CDs, or I turn the dial to GOLD 90FM. I know it’s for oldies. Maybe at 38 I AM an oldie. But Maggie and Hossan are entertaining and at least they play LOTS of music. I’ve tried other stations but all the other DJs annoy me…

What do you think about Singapore radio and who do you listen to in the car?
