What was the most overlooked record (or artist) for your format in 2005?

Brody/WDCG: Switchfoot
“This Is Your Life.”Maxwell/KSMB: Gorillaz 
“Feel Good Inc.”Erik Bradley/B96: Bobby Valentino. He has a ton of talent and I wish he had connected with the audience better. Hopefully on his next project 
he’ll get his props!Bruce St. James/KKFR:Amerie.

Fisher/WHZT: John Legend.

Chris Marino/WLDI: Keith Urban “You’ll Think Of Me.” 
Big research record for me.

Kasper/WAKS: Xscape 
“What’s Up.”

Dylan Sprague
/WWWQ: Click Five “Just the Girl.”Sue O’Neil/WKSE:John Legend.

“Fly Away.”

Eric Chase/WTWR: Howie Day.
Toby Knapp/WNOK: Crossfade. Just went back into Power.

Angel Garcia
/KYVB: Lil’ Rob “Bring The Freak Out.”Brent Carey/WTWR:Crossfade “Cold.”

Skyy/XM: Reina “Forgive.” Great artist and how can you go wrong with a remake of a country song.

And Sara or Keane.

Tori Thomas/WZZO:Shinedown’s Leave A WhisperCD still had some life left in it during the very early part of ’05. I also think Mainstream Rock should’ve shown a little more love to Theory Of A Deadman.Michael Cross/KFMW: Danko Jones “Lovercall.”Tim Parker/WNOR: The Mars Volta “The Widow.”Steve Raymond/WZXL: Alter Bridge, they’re very talented musicians.

Doug Podell/WRIF: Silvertide.

Courtney Quinn/WLZX:Submersed “Hollow” (great song, band killed live) and The Mars Volta “The Widow.”

Tony Waitekus/WHTS: “Crazy” by Simple Plan. It’s testing quite well for me now. It was a hit that wasn’t given enough time.

Matt Sneed/WPST: Josh Kelly “Only You.” It should have been a lot bigger than it was.

Matt Spry/KFMA: Thrice 
“Image Of The Invisible.”
