So I just heard you, Bob, saying that the song “Magic” by Pilot, which you played by my request a while ago is over used in a commercial or series of commercials you might recall seeing on tv every so often which is why you otherwise would’ve avoided playing the song at all other costs. It turns out that it’s not the original song being used for the series of those tv commercials. It’s rather just a parody of it which turns out to be used for those ozempic commercials which I forgot about and was only reminded of it just now since you mentioned the commercials a few moments ago. The song was made to be sung to the tunes of “Magic” by Pilot. But I chose that song not because of those commercials, but because it was a huge hit back in the day on WCBS-FM and heard it in an aircheck of that station with Bob Shannon as he played it as the first song to open his show on Halloween all the way back in 2002 when he was doing his show then at one of the most popular hotels in California for some reason, which is what I was listening to earlier today, along with my other requested song I mentioned earlier on for that song by the Bee Gees.
