Did I Just Hear a New Version of Stuck on the Radio???

[jezebel]

Sorry if I'm hopelessly out of date,(been out of town for awhile) but I just heard an acoustic version of Stuck on the radio. What's up with that?

So good to hear U2 on every station, just about.

BTW, on KLOS (Los Angeles) playlist, Kite, of all songs, is #1! Plus Beautiful Day and Stuck are also on their top 20, with Peace on Earth also gettin a lot of airplay!

I don't know if they are exactly fucking up the mainstream, but - at least - they are showing the mainstream what good music should sound like

That's great jezebel!
I don't listen to radio very much but I'm glad they're palying real music.

 

[jezebel]

What's really weird is that this is a very mainstream top 40 type station.

 

[Ally]

what??? kite is #1 on a mainstream radio station?? how weird!

do you think they'll release it as a single?

 

[voxson]

This version of stuck will appear in the Walk On single as a B-side. Scheduled release is early November.

 

[jezebel]

oh, sorry, Ally, the station that I heard Stuck on is a different station than KLOS.
KLOS is a big LA station that plays a combination of classic rock and current rock. Still, I didn't think Kite was getting ANY airplay anywhere.

thanks, voxson, for the info, now it sounds even stranger that I would hear this version on the radio!

 

[Ally]

yeah, jezebel, i didn't think that kite was getting played either! i've never heard it on a NYC station. but that's great news anyway- thanks for the update.

 

[jezebel]

Holy cow, I just heard it again! Love it!

Hey, are you hearing that on Star or Kroq? I cant remembert which one ive heard it on...its a great acoustic version though.
KLOS has been playing Kite for awhile now, i requested it when Bono's dad died. I have to disagree that KLOS is very mainstream...I mean, it is, but less so than the other LA area stations. And when Jim Ladd takes over at 10pm...Lord Have Mercy!

sorry, guys, I need to explain myself a little better.

mm (my initials also!), you are right, KLOS is not mainstream. I meant that the station that I heard Stuck on twice today is very mainstream: Star 106.9, which broadcasts from Palm Springs.

Sorry for the confusion!
