That's an amazing moment, the first time you hear yourself on radio. It's still thrilling.
Lilith Fair was a great experience for us the first time we played it. We were... not a new band, but a new band as far as mainstream kind of airplay or success.
The media, being what it is, is always looking for the next new thing. There are still bands out there playing, no matter what the new thing is. The Stones go out there, and people go see them without records or even airplay.
I never understood the hit-single, quick-success, get-airplay mentality.
Young people will tell you, if you're not prepared to write the most violent, the most misogynistic, the most horrible kinds of rhymes and scenarios, you are not going to get air play.
I think there are people out there writing original bluegrass songs, but it's hard to get them out on the air.
Cristiano has a lot to his game - he is good in the air, his shooting is perfect, his left foot perfect, and he is more of a striker than a winger now, a No. 9.
You never think your song's gonna be on the radio. Until it is.
We can get airplay all across the board, from CHR to Active rock.
We used to call it recurrent airplay when someone had a hit.
I don't get the airplay that one in my position deserves. 'Twist and Shout' gets more airplay than 'The Twist,' and that's not right.
I think I can see people wanting to hear more music-music now as opposed to all hip-hop. You know, which I have nothing against hip-hop. I think some of it is really good. But on the other hand, some of the real great artists are just being lost because they're not getting the airplay or anything to make them inspired to record again.
