Speaker 3:Talk about toxic chemistry. Next up, we're slowing it down with our track that's smooth, sultry and just a little bit haunting. This is Whispers in the Night by Storm Cry, fronted by the mysteriously well-endowed Gary Nine Inch Stevens.
Speaker 1:The city sleeps, streets are quiet, a lonely wind calls out your name. Memories fade like candle shadows, but in my heart they burn the same. The time keeps moving, but I stand still Chasing echoes. I can't feel Whispers in the night calling me back to you Like a fading dream. I can't hold on to. The stars may fall, but love won't die. I hear your voice in the midnight sky. Time keeps moving, but I stand still Chasing echoes. I can't feel Whispers in the night calling me back to you Like a faded dream. I can't hold on to. The stars may fall, but love won't die. I hear your voice in the midnight sky. I walk alone through empty highways, traces of you. In every sign I close my eyes. I swear I hear you. Your heart still beats along with mine.
Speaker 1:Time keeps moving, but I stand still Chasing echoes. I can feel, oh, whispers in the night Calling me back to you Like a faded dream I can't hold on to. The stars may fall, but love won't die. I hear your voice in the midnight sky. I'm maybe somewhere Just a-waiting. Maybe someday I'll find my way. Whispers in the night Calling me back to you Like a faded dream. I can't hold on to. The stars may fall.
Speaker 2:Okay, let's be real. We all know why they call him Nine Inch Stevens, and it ain't for his guitar solos.
Speaker 3:And with that, folks, it's time for our song of the day, this one synth rock masterpiece that brings back all those neon dreams. This is Echoes in the Wind by Neon Reverie.
Speaker 1:Streets are quiet, a lonely wind calls out your name. Memories fade like candle shadows, but in my heart they burn the same. The time keeps moving, but I stand still chasing echoes. I can't feel. I can't feel Whispers in the night Calling me back to you Like a fading dream I can't hold on to. The stars may fall, but love won't die. I hear your voice In the midnight sky. Time keeps moving, but I stand still Chasing echoes. I can't feel Whispers in the night calling me back to you Like a faded dream I can't hold on to. The stars may fall, but love won't die.
Speaker 1:I hear your voice in the midnight sky. I walk alone through empty highways, traces of you. In every sign I close my eyes. I swear I hear you. Your heart still beats along with mine. Time keeps moving, but I stand still Chasing echoes. I can't feel Whispers in the night night Calling me back to you Like a faded dream I can't hold on to. The stars may fall, but love won't die. I hear your voice in the midnight sky. I'm waiting somewhere, just waiting. Maybe someday I'll find my way. Whispers in the night calling me back to you Like a faded dream I can't hold on to. The stars may fall, but love won't die. I hear your voice in the midnight. Skies Boosters in the night.
Speaker 2:Man, this song makes me want to jump in awe trans-am and speed down the highway with my hair blowing in the wind. You had any hair that was below the belt, nova?

Wait, since Brett called in last show, I've been looking into this FAKE radio thing and, honestly, I'm baffled. What do you mean'm baffled? What do you mean baffled?
