It is no secret that the automated system of VF Radio chooses random songs to play when no one is requesting. It is also no secret that this seemingly random selection of titles happens to have a few 'favorites' it keeps going to during dead periods of no requests.

Post here any songs that you have noticed are being played randomly ("Random Song") a suspiciously high number of times.

Do not post here any songs that you feel other users are 'over-requesting.' Instead, if you have any concerns about 'over-requesting,' please send me a Private Message or E-mail.

Thanks,
Gil "CASD"
VF Radio Administrator

PS: We have added a feature where users may browse titles that have never yet played on VF Radio. You may visit the Never Played directory by clicking here (http://www.visionsfantastic.com/tunez/neverplayed.php). The link is also now available on the home page of the VF Radio Request System.

I will be conducting periodic and sporadic testing over the next few weeks. The testing will occur during periods of low demand and should not impact your listening experience in any way. During these tests, you may see many tracks in the request queue under the username "CA Screamin Dude" or "Tom Morrow." Feel free to request material during this time, I will ensure that your requests play in a timely manner, ahead of any CASD/Tom Morrow-requested titles. The purpose of this testing is to stimulate the Automated System to select more 'random' titles for play during no-request periods.

Parade of Dreams Show Mode. I definitely notice that (not that it's a bad song).

I'm the one that just requested that one kenzie. You can find out if it's requested by clicking on the song title and looking under all the song info

I notice that "I Got Spurs (that Jingle, Jangle, Jingle)" is played alot, and quite frankly, it's tiresome to listen to.

^That is actually part of the IJA track - the radio that plays in the queue, not the song itself.

VF Radio does have a standalone "Jingle Jangle Jingle" title, direct from a Kay Kaiser LP.

^D'oh! I stand corrected. Should've known with the radio database...

Medicine Man -The Trees
Haunted Mansion Holiday
Space Mountain (it seems to favor all of the version on there, 2007 the most, tho)

Side note: Is the Eureka! Compiliation coming back as the IJ one did? Both were favorites of the radom song list, and Eureka kinda grew on me, and it's the only version I've found that had the parade ending rather than just the individual float loops.
