This May
It's All About You
From 6am to 6pm every weekday from Monday 5th, the Classic Hits Team is diving into a month-long celebration of the songs that put you front and centre. Whether it's a heartfelt ballad, a pop anthem, or a rock'n'roll favourite, if it's got “You” in the title, it's on the playlist!
We're rolling out the red carpet for some of the greatest “You”-themed classics from the 60s through to the 90s – the songs you grew up with, fell in love to, danced around the lounge room to, and maybe even played a little too loud in the car
Here's just a taste of what you might hear:With or Without You – U2, You're So Vain – Carly Simon, Baby, I Love Your Way – Peter Frampton, You Can't Hurry Love – The Supremes, You're the One That I Want – John Travolta & Olivia Newton-John, You Make My Dreams – Hall & Oates and stacks more classic hits to keep your days sounding sweet all May long.
Join us each weekday from 6am to 6pm and tell your friends – because this month on Coast FM 963, it's All About You! Starts Monday 5th May.
