Up until I was about 13, I used to believe that when radio stations played music, they had the actual live band in there singing. I used to ponder for hours how they got in and out and set up so fast to immediatly start the song after the last one. I had thought this becuase i was watching Selina and when she was recording her song, i thought that she was singing for a radio, so i imagined those kinds of rooms where they came in and out.

Took me a while to figure out that maybe they had TAPES or RECORDS.

When I was younger I used to believe that when radio stastions played music, they actually had the band/singer live in the studio. I thought I was stupid to believe this when I was older but then I realized I wasn't the only one when I had to break the news to my cousin.

I used to believe around five years old that the records I heard on the radio were actually live bands performing at the radio station. I just couldn't figure out how they could change bands so quickly between songs.

I used to wonder how they managed to fit the orchestra into the radio station.

sally

I used to believe that whenever I heard a song on the radio, the band or singer was actuallly in the studio performing live.

Tony O'Donnell

I used to believe that when you heard a song on the radio, that artist had to come in and perform it. It never occured to me that people might be playing tapes like we had at home. When I heard the same musician on more than one station, it astounded me how fast they could make it from one station to the next!

Ryan

When I was little I used to believe that every song I heard on the radio was being played live ... with the real band right there in the studio for everyone to hear!

Duane Foster

I used to believe that when you heard a song on the radio, It was the band actually playing live in the radio station studio.

Carl Windsor

When I was little I used to believe that the musicians and singers on the radio were actually at the radio station performing their song every time it was to be played. I even asked my father "How did they get to the other station so fast?" when he changed the radio station and the same song was playing.

Anon

I used to believe that radio stations had the bands playing live for every song. And before I figured that out, I used to believe there were tiny people living inside the radio.

mj

When I was little, I believed that the songs I heard on the radio were all live. I wondered how the bands could go from one station to another in time to sing on both stations.

Selena

when i was little, i thought that the singers would be in the studio, like when the people would announce whose next, i thought they were in there, waiting.

hals

i used to believe that radios had little versions of the singers inside them and, for example, michael jackson knew when you wanted to hear him... took me a while to figure out how tapes worked...

soph

When I was a kid, I thought when you heard someone singing on the radio that they were actually at the radio station. I always wanted to visit a station so I could meet the Beatles!

Maria

When I was a kid I used to think that radio station(s) actually had the artist(s) in the studio performing their songs live on the air!

P.H.I.

I used to think that the records played on the top 40 station were actually the bands playing live, over ad over again, even though I knew about 45s and had my own Beatles records. I just had this image of the band waiting expectantly in the studio, waiting for someone to give the signal after a commercial so they could start playing again. (I never figured out how the band could be in so many radio stations at once).

Mary

As a kid, every time a song was played on the radio I thought that the band were playing live in the studio. So I thought'when I grow up I'm going to wait outside the radio station and see them all.'

Eddy S

I used to believe that when you heard a song on the radio, the singer or group was AT the radio station, right then, performing the song "live". After their song was over, they had to hurry up and get out of the way so the next singer or group could sing their song. During the commercials they all took a break!

Laura H., Kentucky USA

I used to believe that when you called the radio station and requested a song, that they had to get the people that sang the song to come to the station and sing it.

Diana K

Whenever I listened to the radio, I used to think that each band came into the radio station, one at a time, played their song, and left. As I grew a little older, that theory was changed by my thinking that ALL of the bands were in the studio, but played their one song and then left...
