The Winner for June 22, 2001

Virgin Radio PARTY!
(was "Wheels of Steel")

Non-stop music wouldn't be a bad start to a description of a radio station, wouldn't you say? What about a station that played nothing but non-stop party songs? And not modern ecstasy-party music, but real party music? You know, the kind with a melody and someone other than R2D2 on keyboards?

Like Steve Miller's The Joker one minute, New Order's Bizarre Love Triangle the next, and something from Abba, Blondie, and shitloads of 70s and 80s songs you haven't heard since you put on your last pair of parachute pants. Or, shock yourself by hearing some R&B that not only has Rhythm, but Blues, too. Cheap Trick, Kiss, disco, funk, new wave, it's all here.

Let's be blunt. Virgin Radio PARTY! is the Terminator 2 of radio stations.

So turn off that damn AM/FM radio and listen to Virgin Radio PARTY! And when you get bored, turn the dial on your streaming audio player to a live feed of Virgin Radio, the best modern-rock commercial radio station known to man.

Those Brits know their beer, and dammit, they know their radio.

Check out Virgin Radio PARTY!
