Heard One on the local classic rock station. Classic rock means old, right?  ;)

I heard Pop Musik by M on XM last night. I know it's not a U2 song... but... it's got a U2 association. And who cannot help but think of U2 when they hear that song? Btw, I went crazy when it came on. It was a total OMG moment. I love the British Invasion station on XM.

KBCO online (Boulder CO) played Sweetest Thing today (and, of course, the obligatory Van Morrison.)

I'm pretty sure it's now also my birthday today!

Running errands and the dj says - coming up so and so and U2. I run into the Dollar Tree, and out just in time for the start of Love and Peace or Else. NEVER heard that one on the radio before! Run to Costco, get back in the car and All I Want Is You is playing. Neither station mentioned the B man's birthday today, but it was a happy day nonetheless!

Can't wait to get back in the car!  :)

Okay, this one was amusing for me....don't know why.

I have a Sirius/XM Satellite radio that allows me to put in up to 50 favorite artists and when that artist is being played on any stellite station, it will alert me.  I get alerts to U2, Coldplay, Radiohead, Muse, Killers, Black Keys, etc.  This morning, however, around 7:40 am was a first.  I was alerted to U2 Elevation being played so I hit the button to switch to the station to listen.  To my mild surprise, it was playing on a station called Out-Q or something like that....Gay Radio Entertainment.  I didn't know this station existed so what surprised me, amused me, etc. was the curiousity that the song Elevation was some sort of gay anthem or something or if that is a common type of song played on that station.  I listened for about 5 minutes and the rest was simply boring talk radio.  I have nothing against gay people or anybody else for that matter, but does anybody know if Elevation is being used as a type of anthem?  Just found it interesting.  Also, I thought it was cool to hear elevation on the radio......it's probably not played very often on radio.
