    Default 70's Song

    I know this song if of the 70's style, but it sounds countryish. It has a quartet or big chorus sing acapella in some places for the chorus in the song, but the lyrics I caught from the chorus were: "....Airwaves....request.... try and do your best I've been (?) listening to your voice on the radio and you soung like a friend to me (?)"

    the ".....'s" are lyrics that I couldn't discern.

    PLEASE HELP!!!

    I think you're looking for a song entitled "Pilot of the Airwaves" by Charlie Dore (early 80s, actually). Here it goes:

    Pilot of the Airwaves

    Pilot of the airwaves
    Here is my request
    You don't have to play it
    But I hope you'll do your best
    I've been listening to your show on the radio
    And you seem like a friend to me

    Or a record of your choice
    I don't mind, I'd be happy just to hear your voice
    Saying this is for the girl
    Who didn't sign her name
    Yes, she needs a dedication just the same

    Late at night I'm still listening
    Don't waste my time chasing sleep
    People say I look weary
    But that's just the company I keep
    Ooooh, you make the nighttime race
    Ooooh, I don't need to see your face
    You're sounding good
    Sounding good to me

    Pilot of the airwaves
    Here is my request
    You don't have to play it
    But I hope you'll do your best
    I've been listening to your show on the radio
    And you seem like a friend to me

    Late at night I'm still listening
    Don't waste my time chasing sleep
    People say I look weary
    But that's just the company I keep
    Ooooh, you make the nighttime race
    Ooooh, I don't need to see your face
    You're sounding good
    Sounding good to me

    You're sounding so good to me

    Pilot of the airwaves
    Here is my request
    You don't have to play it
    But I hope you'll do your best
    I've been listening to your show on the radio
    And you seem like a friend to me

    Oh, I've been listening to your show on the radio
    And you seem like a friend to me

    Ohhh

    Play that song for me
    Won't you just play that song for me
