Samuel’s Musicians Of The Week

A few weeks ago I mentioned that the Little River Band may make another appearance in the Musicians Of The Week award due to very large number of fantastic songs they’ve produced. So here they are again, and this time the feature song is Emma.

Oh pretty Emma
you sweet pretender
why don’t you stay around
what’s your dilemma
won’t you please tell me Emma
I don’t wanna lay you down

sometimes it’s hard to bend
turn around
you better start all over again

(Please tell me Emma)
(Please tell me Emma)
Don’t get excited
you’ll be invited
wait for the wheel to turn
don’t be impatient
you’ll get liberated
and everybody’s got to learn

you have got
to make a contribution
then you can start
to draw your own conclusion

(Please tell me Emma)
(Please tell me Emma)
(Please tell me Emma)
(Please tell me Emma)

Emma, Emma, Emma I’m still waiting.
(I’m still waiting)
Emma, Emma, Emma

Sometimes it’s hard to bend
turn around
you’d better start all over again
all over again
(Please tell me Emma)
(Please tell me Emma)
(Please tell me Emma)
(Please tell me Emma)

Emma, Emma, Emma
start relating
(start relating)

Oh pretty Emma
you sweet pretender
why don’t you stay around
Oh pretty Emma
you sweet pretender
I don’t wanna lay you lay you lay you down

Oh pretty Emma
you sweet pretender
I don’t wanna lay you down

Oh pretty Emma

(oooh oooh oooh oooohoh)
(oooh oooh oooh oooohoh)
(oooh oooh oooh oooohoh)
(oooh oooh oooh oooohoh)
(oooh oooh oooh oooohoh)
(oooh oooh oooh oooohoh)

Melbourne Radio Ratings

I was going to write a report about the first Melbourne radio ratings period following the 3AW/Magic frequency swap, and then I realised that the ratings periods in Melbourne overlap.

Ratings #3 (which I covered here) went from February 12 to April 29, which places it before the frequency swap.

Ratings #4, which I was about to write a report for, went from March 26 to June 10, which puts the frequency swap in the middle of the ratings period.

Ratings #5 started on May 7 (six days after the frequency swap) and finished on July 29, I will write a report about this ratings period when the results are published, as this will provide a direct comparison of the time directly before, and directly after, the frequency swap.
