Re: may anyone like kssk's song's from the past?

KSSK's demographics are typically (I may be off on a couple of items):

1) Married local couple living in Aiea/Pearl City 30 to 40-something in age
2) Both are either professional State or Utility workers
3) Family income around $90K
4) Owns home
5) Drives Toyota or Lexus
6) Two kids in private schools
7) Own's a dog
8) Likes to golf
9) Shops at Ala Moana
10) Credit Union member

That said the music tends to reflect that age/gender group.

Stations playing a lot of songs from the past also attract advertisers like AARP. I was listening to KPOI 105.9 FM this past weekend... you know... classic rock... and was a bit disturbed to hear several airings of an AARP spot on the station.... Now I know I am getting old....

Haven't listened to a long music block on KSSK lately but anyone know if AARP is advertising there? I heard the Bee Pollen guy's ads there as well as on KHVH.

Re: may anyone like kssk's song's from the past?

i have KSSK on my alarm clock radio because if there's something major going on, I want to know about it right away. So I hear about half an hour of it every day, and I am convinced the station only plays ONE song: That "Waiting on the World to Change" song.

I hate that song.

Well duh!! You're not exactly KSSK's "target" audience

Re: may anyone like kssk's song's from the past?

Well, let's see about that:

1) Married local couple living in Aiea/Pearl City 30 to 40-something in age
No, but I'm in the age-range. And I grew up in PC/Aiea.

2) Both are either professional State or Utility workers
Professional yes. State or utility no.

3) Family income around $90K
Hahahahaha.

4) Owns home
No.

5) Drives Toyota or Lexus
No, but I did have an '82 Toyota Corolla hatch, back in '97-98. Good car.

6) Two kids in private schools
No.

7) Own's a dog
Geez. Where did YOU go to school?

8) Likes to golf
No.

9) Shops at Ala Moana
Yes!

10) Credit Union member
Yes!


I count like....two and three halves out of ten. I guess that's appropriate, since I enjoy about 20% of the music I hear there

Okay "owns"

When you live in Waialae Kahala you take the word "own" for granted

well thank's for your time

Re: may anyone like kssk's song's from the past?

"The Sweet Escape" and "Waiting on the World to Change" are the kind of new songs that fit perfectly into an Adult Contemporary music format that is played on KSSK. The songs are new, safe and vaguely recall top 40 music of the 70s and 80s.

Re: may anyone like kssk's song's from the past?

That's a good song, but it should be illegal to play the Captain & Tenille version except on novelty shows. "And they whirl and they twirl and they tango..."

Ohhhhhhhh, I confess.........I just joined AARP yesterday. They have some pretty good travel deals and other offers. I've resisted since November of
last year.......

Have you heard other versions? I prefer the ones by America and by Willis Alan Ramsey (the song's composer).

While that's a pretty dumb video I am and always have been a big Captain and Tennille fan. Love, love, love Muskrat Love as it brings back many wonderful memories! C&T and I had a mutual friend, altho' I doubt that couple was aware of it. Mutual friend, who was a fun, nutty guy, told me that Tony T. was a fun, nutty gal. I instantly liked her! And, I've always loved her voice. Think I'll hele on over to the iTunes Music Store and download Muskrat Love. Thanks for the memories.
