COOL SONGS FOR
RADIO BY OVERSEAS ARTISTS & BANDS |
The following
is a list of songs by overseas (ie. nonAustralasian) artists/bands that
are suitable for radio airplay. A significant number of the songs mentioned
in this listing have little or no radio airplay although if these
songs had voices theyd be crying out for airplay because of their
lyrical and/or musical excellence. No distinction is made between artists/bands
that are on Christian labels or mainstream labels as this distinction
has been made for too long and only serves to perpetuate a pharisaical/separatistic
mindset that divides artists/bands into two camps. Artists & bands
are listed in alphabetical order. This resource will be especially helpful
for radio announcers. |

songs mentioned in this listing have little or no radio airplay - although
if these songs had voices they'd be crying out for airplay because of
their lyrical and/or musical excellence. No distinction is made between
artists/bands that are on Christian record labels or mainstream record
labels as this distinction has been made for too long and only serves
to perpetuate a pharisaical separatistic mindset that classifies and divides
artists/bands into one of two camps. Artists & bands are listed in
alphabetical order. This resource will be especially helpful for radio
announcers. |
