Through Darkness Light by Hootenanny Singers

Mike Check: Well that was “Through Darkness Light” by Hootenanny Singers, on…THE MACKER! And speaking of “Hootenanny”, tomorrow begins another annual edition of The Mike Check Show’s “Halloween Hootenanny”–

Mike Check: Wait?! What in sam hill was that?!

Mike’s Daughter: Sorry. I was just watching a bit of South park before today’s song and accidentally unpaused it while you were talking.

Mike Check: Thank the Lord for that. Weell, for a second there I thought that Sam…STAN…or whatshisname was back?

One Man Band by Leo Sayer

Mike Check (*frightened*): Ahhhh! Why are we playing a song by that darn “IT” clown?!

Mike’s Daughter: Well someone’s requested this, so we had to? And it’s nothing to do with the movie “IT”. It’s Leo Sayer singing this. I thought an “experienced” DJ like you would have known that?

Mike Check: I knew that. I was just testing you.

Mike’s Daughter: Right? So you’re saying that you knew “that”, but not “IT”?

Mike Check: I…I’m not sure that I understand that particular reference there darlin’?

Lonesome Loser by Little River Band

Weeelll fellers! As you probably have noticed, I have been sent some anonymous requests lately to play songs with a theme of being “lonesome/alone” and they’ve been dedicated to some feller called “Virgil”? I don’t know who that is? But he sounds like some “Lonesome Loser” here on…THE MACKER!
