Hi There,

It's been a while since I've posted some of the weekly changes on the station, but I wanted to give you a heads-up that I've added some classic, slightly deeper cuts from some staple 80s Alternative artists.

Here's the full list of newly added songs that you'll hear on the 80s Alternative station this week:

Only When You Leave by Spandau Ballet
The Gap by Thompson Twins
Pretending to Be Drunk by Sparks
Puppet Boy by Devo
Living on Video by Trans-X
Gratitude by Danny Elfman
Game Above My Head by Blancmange
Where the Rose Is Sown by Big Country
That's Love, That It Is by Blancmange
The More You Live, The More You Love by A Flock of Seagulls
From a Whisper to a Scream by Elvis Costello
Getting Mighty Crowded by Elvis Costello

Have a great week and thanks for your continued feedback. Your suggestions are always appreciated.

As a regular "80's Alternative" listener I would like to say the station is great. I was happily surprised to hear the"Lords of the New Church" song "Open Your Eyes" recently. That is something I hadn't heard on Sirius, Slacker or any alternative Radio station since the late 1980's. I was a great surprise.

Don't let the lack of traffic here make you think people aren't listening. I listen frequently but only check back here every now and then.

Thanks so much James. I always apprciate hearing from listeners. The message boards are a great way of communicating, but we also have internal tools to let us know how many people are listening and which songs they like or dislike. So all of your feedback -- both here and when you're listening to the station -- is greatly valued by me.

Thanks again and please continue to comment here if there's a song you'd like me to add to make the station better.
