Do radio stations still conduct "guess the song" contests
where the audience hears but a couple of seconds of a
portion of some song? and you listen to a long list of
call-ins that guess incorrectly -- the jackpot grows with
each wrong answer.
Not sure if this was "chartsweep," but I remember pop
stations reverse-consecutive playing top 100 lists over many
days, and then after finally climaxing with number-1, they'd
run this frenzied compliation of brief snatches from the
playlist.
Pop music, c&w, polkas, hip-pop... it's really all the same:
it's Marching Music. *sigh*
