        I was gonna say "How can I name a song if I've never heard it!?" But on the radio? Or not on the radio? That would be too many to mention. First one that comes to mind...Little Lamb Dragonfly.

              Ha ha! I worked in an office for a few years that had music piped in by a service, and there were several Paul songs that got played over and over (it was the same 100-200 songs cycling through for each month): Fine Line, Put It There, Band On The Run, Silly Love Songs, Let 'Em In, With A Little Luck, Wonderful Christmastime (every December). Maybe a few others, but now I can't remember for sure. For a song that I've never heard on the radio, but was a single, so at least it had a chance: Stranglehold

                  Big Barn Bed. I've always thought that song would make a great radio track on the classic rock format.

                        Was a time when the advertising on album oriented rock stations was tastefully short and relevant. And then, it wasn't long enough. It was entertaining. It was all about Life. And things to do. Upcoming concerts at The Los Angeles Colosseum. And revival films at The Fox Venice Theater by the sea. And street parades. And festivals. And Zeidler & Zeidler. And a coat that I may have worn then, for PSA spots about the things that I, to this day, nearly 46 years later, can still care about. Like Equality. And Justice. And Liberty. What killed rock radio for me was when the commercial breaks became 6 minutes at a time, for storebought product. Like heart attack medication. Like V iagra. Like C ialis. Like a new car loan for a lease option. And Bail Bondsmen. And Lawyers. And endless platitudes for the station. And the PSA spots that no longer ask us from the heart, by the truth of their needs, because they now demand by force of law against my consent, by their Authority, in the name of "wellness". And false Solidarity. Just a euphemism for the same old conformity and the road that is always taken, which is the one that most of us seemed to oppose back then. The classic rock stations never did return to the early 70's for very long. Lately they've all returned to the flash glam 80's, with short playlists.

                              Radio is an irrelevant term. Gone the way of the dodo. Dead. Sad, I might add. Gone with it is the moment of anticipation.

                                  There is still anticipation for a new release on the Net, or there can be. It is surely dead for waiting to hear songs that are already released on the radio though. Or being surprised by hearing it during normal playlists. What radio could do is to make the playlists user-active, and they should have done that from the start using phone calls. When you call the station and ask for the tune, and then others do the same until they play it, then that would be something to be able to support your favorites.

                                    that and once i got a tape deck then later a cd player and now iPod capabilities i quit listening to the radio other than the occasional break to listen to NPR.

                                      About the radio. Everything that I said previously. So of course I would try changing the station during the breaks. So then the radio stations began synchronizing their breaks to occur all at the same time across the entire radio dial... That was the last straw. And that lawyer guy pushing V iagra as a bail bondsman in need of a loan for a car lease while on heart meds, all at the same time across the entire radio dial.

                                          Due to radio specials featuring Paul McCartney over the years, I've probably heard most every song that I would have considered as an answer...but if we exclude Paul specific radio specials, there would be quite a number, including Treat Here Gently, Beware My Love, Too Many People...actually a bunch (too many to list any more - especially from the Post 1980, and even more so, post 1990 time frame)
