I think they are looking at several things: this being a third single, iTunes placement over a long period of time, and requests from station regulars who send in requests for all kinds of artists.
You can usually (not always) look at someone's twitter account or facebook and see if they are hard core stans of a particular artist or not. They also have a ton of debut singles from heavy hitters that they are trying to fit into their playlists. There is a small window of opportunity for artists that aren't one of the heavy hit makers.

Radio DJs have been in this Idol game for over a decade. They know that a large majority of the requests for Idols are coming from super stans, most (but some do) of whom never listen to their station on a daily basis. That's where the Idol bias comes in, and it does make sense in many ways. PDs and DJs are looking for wide-spread, organically driven interest from their loyal listeners. That happened with WWFM and that is why it was played.

Adam Lambert On 'Pretty Little Liars' Halloween Episode: Sneak Peek!

by Maud Deitch in Halloween







Halloween month may already be in full swing, but there are still three weeks left until the spookiest day of the year. Costume planning, plotting and scheming may have you busy, but you might also be eagerly, anxiously, desperately awaiting a date a little sooner than All Hallow's Eve: October 23rd. Have no idea what I'm talking about? Well you must not be a diehard Adam Lambert fan, then, because if you were you would know that the 23rd is the night that Adam will appear as a guest star on the Pretty Little Liars Halloween special! Here's what we know right now: Adam will perform at a costume party in the episode, which is called "This Is A Dark Ride." From a new teaser video, we know that one of the songs he will play will be "Cuckoo," from Tresspassing, and that his costume is something like a Victorian meets, well, Glambert, Vampire. We can't imaging it would be all that easy to sing with those fangs in, but if anyone can do it, Adam Lambert can. We also know, from an earlier teaser, that this appearance is going to involve not just singing, but acting as well! Is there anything he can't do? Check out some more teaser photos after the jump!
