Discover the story of the song > “On the Radio” – Chip Taylor

The lyrics talk about how life works and the different emotions we experience. The protagonist recalls a memory of driving through a crowd and laughing, but then things start getting warmer and uncomfortable. They try to find words to express their feelings, but nobody understands. The song also mentions a radio DJ who is sleeping while a long solo plays, and the protagonist reflects on how love works and how we hope to find someone else to love. In the end, the song comes back to the radio and the sleeping DJ.
