User blog:Timebomb192potato/Junkread j-radiodiscussions discussion: "Format Flip Songs"

"A cluster I used to work for flipped from Christian music to classic alternative with, predictably, REM's "Losing My Religion."
 * p/Amazing_Butters_22: "A while back while working for a iHeartMedia cluster in Montgomery, AL we flipped a syndicated "sports talk" station to Top 40/CHR by teasing "Tired of boring radio that isn't fun? A new revolution is coming [DATE]". Day of the launch, we ended a commercial break with the Fox Sports theme interrupted midway by some explosion SFX followed by a "The Revolution is here" liner. First song out of the gate? Rachel S' "Revolution Baby"."
 * p/Arrowhead552:

We also flipped an ailing conservative talker to Fox Sports Radio by playing the Fox NFL theme on loop for a day or two."
 * p/Lemon1: "I worked for a cluster in St. Louis MO, and we flipped a Adult Alternative station to Top 40 by playing Justin Timberlake's "SexyBack" on loop for 3 days. By Thursday we added other Justin Timberlake songs and a few *NSYNC songs. It was "Justin 90.1 - All Justin Timberlake, All the Time". The new Top 40 format (Top Pop 90.1) was a bit short-lived, however, and we soon flipped back to Adult Alternative."
