Any Jacks Played These Yet?

I have yet to hear any of these on my local Jack in New York - so rather than request any of them (cuz you know they don't allow that ;) ) I'll throw it out to the rest of you Jack-ers... Has your Jack played any of these songs:

50 Cent - In Da Club
Nick Lowe - Cruel To Be Kind
Paula Cole - Where Have The Cowboys Gone
Brewer & Shipley - One Toke Over The Line
Another Bad Creation - Playground
Andy Kim - Rock Me Gently
Jade - Don't Walk Away
Debarge - Rhythm Of The Night
Jennifer Page - Crush
Arrested Development - Tennessee or Mr. Wendal<P ID="signature">______________

> 50 Cent - In Da Club

I don't think you can find Jack in da club.

> Nick Lowe - Cruel To Be Kind
> Paula Cole - Where Have The Cowboys Gone

These two I've definitely heard on Baltimore's Jack.

> Another Bad Creation - Playground
> Jade - Don't Walk Away
> Jennifer Page - Crush
> Arrested Development - Tennessee or Mr. Wendal

Jack isn't a fan of the rhythmic 90's, although I could see Arrested Development fitting in, and maybe even Jennifer Paige. The only place I've heard Another Bad Creation and Jade in the past couple years is XM 90's on 9.

I heard Andy Kim's Rock me Gently on Jack FM, but I'm not sure if it was 92.5 out of Toronto Canada, or 92.9 out of Buffalo NY!<P ID="signature">______________

94-7 Jack FM does play "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone". The others, they don't (or in the case of Nick Lowe, Brewer & Shipley and Andy Kim, I don't know who they are, so I wouldn't recognize their songs).<P ID="signature">______________

goodness, I hope not

I think Jack's that put very much into ANYTHING that even resembles hip-hop
will instantly lose anybody 35+ (their bullseye is 38 yr old females).

I've heard Jennifer Page "Crush" several times on 95.7 BEN-FM/Philadelphia.

Incorrect...at least according to the research Wall sent to our Jack station.

Bullseye is 35 with a 50/50 fe/male split.

Our Jack clone The Peak in phoenix has played paula cole tune, nick lowe and i believe the debarge song.
 
Re: goodness, I hope not

But that is not the only Variety Hits approach out there. The non-"Jack" Variety Hits are leaning female (60/40) and are leaning a bit older (38-ish).

Not to get semantic, but you did specifically say "Jack."

According to Wall, "Jack" franchises are aimed 35 w/ 50/50 split.

Bob/Dave/Joe/Leonard/Hakim/Mario/Shanequa may all have different individual targets, but the "Jack" franchise package is pretty specific and indeed uniform.

SAT Analogy time:

"Jack" is to Variety Hits as "Kleenex" is to tissues.

...or as "Xerox" is to copying.

...or [if you're a Southerner like me] "Coke" is to soft drink.

We all have to get away from this tendency where the name of the most prevalent brand is used interchangeably with the name of the entire product group.
 
my bad

Get real- there are more than one kind of "Jack"-generation (hope that was OK) stations out there, so it is acceptable to generalize (it's done with Oldies and Urban and CHR).

and I wouldn't put "Jack" on the same heritage level as Kleenex, Xerox and
Coke. They've been around for decades and are titans in their categories--
Jack (in most cases) has been around months or less. Talk to us in a few
years to see if Jack has legs.
