Voice of the Sky 6925 USB 0223 23 APR 2025
« on: April 23, 2025, 0225 UTC »
0223  "Hell is for children" ~ Pat Benatar
0228  VOICE OF THE SKY positive ID
0229 "On the other side" ~ Kansas
0239  "Outlaw Women" ~ Hank Williams Jr.
0255 "Gone Shootin' " ~ AC/DC
0258 "Sirius/Eye In The Sky" ~ The Alan Parsons Project
0306 "Find another fool" ~ Quarterflash  (kudos, I had forgotten that song...)

0420  "Don't Look Back" ~ Boston, still listening to you all this time while chatting on the HFU discord.
Reception much the same, sounds good!

0426  "Big Balls" ~ AC-DC---- possibly last heard by me on 8-track tape in my car, while delivering pizzas in the early 1980's!
0429 "My own worst enemy" ~  Lit   (Yeah, that might be me.  I have some strange recollection of waking up laying halfway onto my bed, with my jacket and shoes still on, sometime in the mid 1980's... was interesting that my mother did not remark upon it, but perhaps she never checked up on me that night, LOL)

0433 "Crutch" ~ Matchbox Twenty
0435  "We're an American Band"  ~  Grand Funk Railroad


S-7 with big audio on HFU skyloop SDR at 0223.  About the same at 0444, so I didn't bother searching out any other SDRs tonight.

Thanks for the later-primetime show!
KUDOS to the station for the wide range of music in this show tonight--- I have enjoyed it!

If you're still watching the logs, I'd request your favorite song by The Doors--
(as long as it is not 'The Crystal Ship'!   jajajaja   Keep getting hit with that song after I post loggings--
I appreciate the gesture,
but that song was chosen as our station name for the name of the song alone--
was never one of my favorite Doors tunes)

0455  "Tell All The People" ~ The Doors--- from 'The Soft Parade', I suspect--
THANKS AMIGO!!!

0457 "Down to the waterline" ~ Dire Straits
(just occurred to me how much that lead singer sounds like Bob Dylan...)

0515  "Happy Jack"  ~ The Who   ("who?" you know...)
0517 "Dreamweaver"  (was a prom song during my Junior High School years.... 77? 78?)
