This may have been covered in the SIRIUS message board, I just have the habit of clicking on (xm) first :
-A rare, but costly mistake... The most common issue (and usually the most embarrassing) is when you voice track your shift/show and your delivery (breaks) is one off to the music you are playing - in fact, I believe there is a famous John Cleese radio skit to this, lol
It happened on 90s, on 9 - First break, I heard big voice, "90s on 9, #1's for the decade" and it SAID 1990, but played Paula Adbul "rush rush" Now, I have commented /posted before the "techie" crap about singles/album the late 1989 airplay, versus the charts in the 1990s,(etc) but this was the first sign of some thing going wrong.
NEXT Break: [v.o] " 1991 big Year for EMF , it was unbelievable " (and played ...?/ robin hood,bryan adams)... and I thought odd but also that happens as well, on a current station a talent will talk about . . .new movie w/ a cross over musician/artist, then play ...say, britney- soo, while it sounded unusual, being a radio nut, I still didnt take note.
I went in/came out of a store, and heard EMF "unbelievable" - - okay, now i am starting to think... ( let me hear the first few breaks over again) I think EMF ended, and it did a big ID/song to song transition into Bryan Adams....
Next (big)voice automated sounded month/year, but did two in a row july1990/then august 1991 and played "step by step (nkotb) > CONFRMED: the same programming block aired today, with the correct breaks for the appropriate song..
How does this happen on the biggest radio station in the world ?
