I used to be a radio D.J. and I met many a guy who was now in their 40s & 50s, worked in a dozen or so radio markets through the years, had a ex-wife and kids he's lost touch with over the years, and just seemed miserable. Even the joy of being a radio D.J. is gone and they are kinda stuck in a rut like a drug addict. And everytime new music comes out, it just makes them feel older.
It is a sad existance that I know well...and when I hear this song, it makes those feelings come right back to me. IT IS AN EXCELLENT SONG capturing a time back in radio.
