    Does anyone know what's happening with East Coast FM?

    They're playing the same songs again and again and again. I don't mean that in a "radio stations always play the same songs" way, I mean the same songs again and again. Tune it in to hear what I mean and you're likely to hear one of these songs :

    Enrique Iglesias - Can't escape my love
    Red Hot Chilli peppers - zepher song
    Black-Eyed peas - some song
    Beyonce - Crazy in Love
    ??? - Come up and see me
    Keane - - everybody changes
    Ms.Spears - Toxic

    there's 3 or 4 others but it's like they're on a loop. does anyone know what's going on?

    Heard this loop on Sunday also. Seems to be a major problem or something.

    Someone should check their offices for Carbon Monoxide levels!

    It's on 99.9 FM I think.

    I didn't listen to it today so hopefully it's sorted by now!

    This sounds like they might have been having problems with their playout system and have stuck on a loop while the tech guys sort it out. All radio stations use computer playout mainly these days for all their music and as we all know systems do crash...

    i don't think these repetitive songs are a problem solely on east coast fm. I seem to be hearing the same songs on all these stations.
