I was a youth of 17 when I started working in radio. When I first heard this song, I could relate to all the vividly described aspects of radio depicted in this song. So much so that I could feel the frustration, futility, insecurity and helplessness of an industry where the "next big thing" was ready to knock you off your pedestal and take your place. Underscored and punctuated by the personal challenges of a career in a fickle industry. Chapin captured it brilliantly.
