Radio Stations
Several good English stations like MIX (94.1), Lite FM (104.7), Red FM (91.6), Hot FM (92.4), HITZ FM (93.2).
The fun things to listen to are the Morning Shows with trivia contests, questions for the audience, surveys and simply all around different morning DJs. It can be interesting to understand what is being said at times with the different accents.
Two questions/surveys recently, as examples:
- Is it OK to "force" your children to like the same sports team you like or should you let them decide?
- Is it OK to have a no-children allowed wedding?
The DJs and the listeners go back and forth with their argument. It makes for an entertaining time while driving in to work in the mornings.
Several Hit songs on the radio that left impressions on us:
Are you Eddy? by Adele
A little background here: One of the people we are working with in Malaysia is named Eddy. When our Elder Colleague (EC for short) heard the song, he immediately started to sing Are you Eddy? Are you Eddy? I am Eddy!

Bump you up by Black Eyed Peas
This one comes from another one of our Malaysian co-worker that picked us up as we were walking back from the MegaMall. He turned on his radio to an English song and EC was rocking to it. Of course, in all his Ericnizing, the song became Bump you up...

Another one we heard a lot was When I Was 7. That one is sad for EC, his life hasn't been the best in the past few years regarding relationships. So he gets sad and morose when he hears that one. We keep reminding him that he should have made some friends when he was 7 years old but he didn't so he is lonely... Poor EC!
Another thematic song was both in the original French, Le Moribond and in the English version, Seasons in the Sun. Click on the title to get a feel for the two songs. EC comments: We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the son but the wine and the song like the seasons are all gone.
