My two minutes of fame
14 years ago
General
Usually I don't have much to report, therefore I don't update this journal often. But now there is something again:
Last night I was listening to the radio, a rather well known national station with perhaps a few hundred thousand listeners per day. It was past midnight and felt like sleeping soon, but on the radio they made a request to us listeners, which was to send in a song or band I recently discovered.
I threw in a song that I've known for a while, but never heard on that station. I never expected them to call back, either. Both of that changed in 5 minutes.
After sending in the text I went back to my business, until a short while later my phone was ringing, a private number. And I kinda went like "... oh shi-". So I picked up, and yes, my song was selected. Short while later, after my full name and current residence was announced (>.o), I was live on the radio.
Funny thing is, I was tired and sleepy, so I wasn't very 'social' or spontanous XD I kinda wish I could've done the brief interview over, on what's it like where I live, how I got to know the song, etc. Anyway, they never heard of the song and were glad that I did. So.. yay!
Two minutes of fame, and I was bloody tired and wanted to sleep. XP
It's still a bit surreal, having spoken to those DJs live..
Anyway, here's the song I sent in: Oceanship - Hotblack
Enjoy~
