Yes, I have to let it linger.

I know it isn't a secret that I LOVE MAGIC 106.7 and anything that can be even remotely linked to it's stopless soft-rock hits. What is LESS known about me is that lately I've been feeling underwhelmed by the world(s) of executive producing, super heroics, advocacy, acting, sainthood, etc. and have been considering going into the world of radio dj-ing. Wondering what my playlist would look like? Hmmmmmm... y'know I'm not going to pretend that I can improve upon perfection, BUT AS MUCH AS I LOVE ROXETTE, I'd only play "It Must Have Been Love" five times a day instead of nine so I could make a little room for some other soft-rock hits. I think for my first show my playlist might look a little something like this:

1. Phil Collins - Another Day in Paradise
2. Kristen Hersh - Your Ghost
3. Bruce Springsteen - I'm On Fire
4. Pat Benetar - We Belong
5. The Cranberries - Linger
6. Cocteau Twins - Lorelei
7. T'Pau - Heart and Soul
8. The Velvet Underground - Heroin
9. Rasputina - Oh, Injury
10. Bonnie Tyler - It's a Heartache
11. Jewel - Foolish Games (the REAL version, not the rediculous one. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN)
12. Lydia Lunch - Mechanical Flattery
13. George Michael - Father Figure
14. Ruth Carr - Come Over
15. Paperboy - Ditty (this one is to lure in the teens. From what I've been told, they loooove rap)
16. K.D. Lang - Constant Craving
17. Babes in Toyland - All By Myself (this counts so fuck you)
18. Sinead O'Connor - Black Boys on Mopeds (ORANGE you glad I didn't say "Nothing Compares 2 U"?)
19. Laurie Anderson - O Superman
20. Roxette - It Must Have Been Love
21. Air Supply - Even The Nights Are Better
22. The Carpenters - Superstar
23. Madonna - Rain
24. Dolly Parton - Light of a Clear Blue Morning

WOW that's a fucking good playlist IF I DO SAY SO MYSELF. And it's only my first show! I'm so excited, but before I head into the station I have to admit that my new job as Richard Joseph Bouchehy is twofold: OBVIOUSLY goal #1 is to bring my dear listeners continuous soft rock and to make sure to remember to mention that Wilson Phillips' "Hold On" is going out from Lorna Dane to Alex Summers (in Iraq, DUH) because she loves him, etc. GOAL #2 is to find out WHO THE FUCK DAVID ALLAN BOUCHER REALLY IS. I'm just gonna come right out and say what I know everyone else is thinking: He's probably Mystique. Maybe Apocalypse. There's no reason on earth to believe he is who he claims to be. No homo sapien is that powerful. I'll keep you all updated.
