Pat Metheny - Last Train Home on FOX 32 News. I think they play this song all the time now.

I briefly heard Take on Me on the TV show "Extra" yesterday.
Hakeem: What's up, Jetsons!
Frank Mitchell: Jetsons?
Hakeem: Yeah, you and George got the same haircut.

I was at Six Flags White Water today for my niece's 6th birthday and the vocal version of "Take On Me" played in the waterpark.

I totally forgot about this! I remember watching this live! Meteorologists Dave Brown and Tim Van Horn were covering some tornadic storms from the same system that hit Alabama on 4/27, and Dave's phone accidentally starts playing "Take on Me" on the air! Classic! It's bad quality, but I'm glad that someone uploaded it nonetheless.

Memphis weather coverage


Also, note the cool camera angle that they use at 0:14 seconds in. They use it very often during severe weather, and I think it's a really awesome angle!

BTW, it's WMC-TV Action News 5 in Memphis.

IMO, I wouldn't count vocal songs (i.e. most of the ones played since March), only because they are mainstream so you'll always hear them on radio stations. Just my two cents though...
