If we can, I would love to have this song played on the radio. What types of radio stations would have the song and play it? In my market, we have 2 chr/top 40 stations, which would play most current pop, a "mix" station which adds in 1980s and 1990s stuff too, a "lite" station, which is played in doctor's offices, and a "little bit of anything old and new" type of station, which plays anything really, from classic rockers like Led Zepplin and The Who to more modern pop artists like Jewel and John Mayer.
What do you think?

you can request it at 88.1 FM College PArk Maryland WMUC by calling 301-314-8800 and requesting it. Most DJs will just accep the request.

yea, we have all clear channel, an alternative station that is all by itself, and "The current" which is owned by NPR. What would be my best bet?

well, in like, a week and a half when our new server comes in, you can listen online anyway...just promote WMUC in your area and give the url www.wmucradio.com
i'm just saying, even if you request at a clear channel station, they won't necessarily play it, if it's not on their play list, then you don't get to hear it

When is someone going to create an All-Eisley-All-The-Time radio station? Maybe it could just be on-line so we can get it anywhere, and super encrypted so pirates can't just download the songs.

Edit: Oh, wait I already do that with my media player.

I actually called a local radio station to hear Marvelous Things, and they'd never heard of Eisley.

I think Eisley is getting bigger and bigger with the college stations, I know our station plays three of their songs..."Marvelous Things", "Telescope Eyes", and "My Lovely". We just added "My Lovely", but we have been playing the other two for a long while now.

ABSOLUTELY.....

everyone should request Eisley be played on every radio station....
request information is tracked and it does affect what gets played, whether it's Clear Channel or a local college station.

By the way...someone commented about not wanting to hear Eisley on Clear Channel stations...are you INSANE!? Eisley (or any band) MUST get on those stations, or the album will never be commercially successful. Warner Music will likely assure that happens....thats what you get when you sign to a major label. I personally do not approve of Clear Chanel's tactics either, but, they are the king of the radio world, and you have to play with them. Like it or not.
Eisley signed to a major label for a reason....so they can spread ther music to a bigger audience. A Platinum Album, songs on Clear Channel stations all over the country, and BIG sold out shows everywhere would be a dream come true!

Well I could try UCONN's radio station or Wesleyan's radio station. But everytime I tune in it's either a talk show or classical music.

I just talked to KTSW, the radio station at my school, and they have EIsley, but I didn't call at a time I could request them. Then I called a local Austin mix radio station (94.7) and they'd heard of Eisley, but didn't have them.
