This is so wrong....
I was driving in the car awhile ago, listening to the radio. As most of you know on satellite radio the artist's name is displayed, then the song. I heard the familiar openning chords of WOTEF, looked down and saw.....

Re: This is so wrong....
I used to hear Poor Little Allison all the time on channel .... hmmmm ..... maybe the Bridge or Coffee House. Not that I'm complaining but I always thought that was a strange song to have on thier playlist in the absence of others. Was this a minor hit in the US?

Well, SOMEBODY must be programming the song titles and artists into the equipment. Garbage in, garbage out - still true.

Re: This is so wrong....
Is 'The Bridge' the name of the radio station or channel? I'm guessing what happened is the name of the song was too long, so the last 2 words were left off. And the artist's name is shown below the song name, thereby giving the illusion that they messed up like that.
