Dial-a-Song

The genius method of giving music to the Brooklyn area invented by They Might Be Giants in 1982. Discontinued in 2006 due to technical difficulties, listeners and fans could call the number; (718) 387-6962, and would hear a song which would update more or less regularly almost every day.

Back in the 90s, sometimes I'd call Dial-a-Song and I'd hear a new song every time. Too bad they don't do it anymore.
