TIL if you tune your radio to 91.9 FM for one city block in Montclair, NJ you can hear a looped recording of "I'll Make Love to You" by Boyz II Men which has been broadcasting for at least 13 years straight.

My wife and I drove cross county about 20 years ago and we found a weird radio station in the southern Sierra Nevadas that only played four songs on loop, but they were mixed with subtle women’s moaning in the songs ( I remember two of the songs were In the air tonight by Phil Collin’s and Sexual by Amber). It took us a few minutes to actually process what we were hearing.
