Ohhhhhh dear.
Did you hear how long the intro was going on for? He could have bloody stopped that! (Twonk.)
No radio station should be playing that song at any time!
Surely he knew what song he was going to be playing after reading the news storys out!!!
@Chris: There is one time during which it’s appropriate to play that song: 1985.
This is clearly fake… He doesn’t introduce the song and I’m assuming if he had half a brain wouldn’t have played it. It’s a shame that these “funny” sites are filled with fakes now. Spoils the fun!
That’s a wee bit unfair as they were unknown at that stage and presumably Blackburn hadn’t seen Barbarella.
As a presenter I did a similar mistake which was genuine on my community station in Swansea. I had played Billy Joel – We Didn’t Start The Fire which was followed by the local news and unbeknown to me I heard the first story was breaking news of a mother and daughter who died in a fire…….ouch!!!!!
My local played Spin Doctors/2 Princes after the initial reports of Diana’s death.
This is not a fake – It’s BBC Radio Oxford!
I realise it sounds fake – but I know for a fact it’s not!
