Magic 92.5 XHRM-FM

No Other Station in San Diego,
Takes me Back to Them «GOOD O’L DAY’S, LIKE MAGIC 92.5 f. m with all, Them Classic Hits!
Thanks MAGIC.

This is really the only radio station in San Diego that I enjoy listening to. Although they can be, at times, repetitive in their song selection, it is not as bad as say Z90.3 with their overkill.
Not a huge fan of Jagger and Christy but their morning «War of the Roses» is definitely entertaining. It’s the same basic setup almost everytime but yet still hilarious.
Being that this is San Diego’s «old school» radio station as they say, they should only be allowed to play songs from the 1960s to the 1990s. I SHOULD NOT be hearing Beyonce «Single Ladies», «Halo» or any other song by her which they have been doing a lot of lately. Those songs only been around for like three years so they are still recent. Same goes true with Mary J. Blige newer songs (although her older songs back in the 1990s fit the description).
Most of the time when I’m driving I’ll listen to my ipod, but from time to time I throw it on this radio station. Although they primarily play R&B, funk and soul music, they will throw in an old school hip-​hop song every once in a while (not the explicit Gangsta Rap versions) which I enjoy as well.

Besides NPR, Magic is the only station I can tolerate these days.
Juicy Fruit all day and all night!

This station makes me happy. I can’t believe it took me so long to find it.
As questionable as my taste in music is, I really have no desire to hear Miley Cyrus over and over again. For obvious reasons, I don’t listen to the radio that often, because hearing the same crappy songs repeatedly makes me want to punch people.
Now, Magic does play many of the songs over and over, but they are mostly songs that I haven’t heard since I was a kid! Just in the past few hours, I’ve heard Marvin Gaye, Teddy Pendergrass, Zapp & Roger, Mary Jane Girls, and Rose Royce. Old school R&B/Funk is where it’s at!
We want the Funk! Gotta have that Funk!
Congrats, Magic 92.5, on being a station in San Diego I can actually tolerate.
By the way, I think it’s funny how many people are all «OMG War of the Roses» — hate to tell you this, but it’s nothing new. I’ve heard «War of the Roses» on all different types of radio stations, in many different cities… for at least 10 years now. I’m not hatin’ on the gag at all. It’s just that many radio stations (I’m guessing because they are corporate-​owned) have affiliates/​sister-​stations around the country. So they all do the same routines.
However, even if I HADN’T heard War of the Roses before… I don’t think I’d believe anyone calling me and telling me I could send free roses to someone. What’s the catch? There’s NO catch? Riiiiiiiight.

Damn telemarketers!

When Magic 92.5 came onto the scene I thought to myself, «Eh, they’re not gonna make it.» Yet, here I am listening to it years later at work. I switch radio stations periodically. Once I become accustomed to a station’s playlist, I move onto another station for awhile. I’m almost at the point where I need to move on again.
Here’s a small list of songs and artists that I hear everyday and I’m not surprised that people request them everyday because in my heart of hearts I believe that the people who listen to this station are stuck in their ways.
1) Marvin Gaye– Mercy, Mercy Me, What’s Going On, Sexual Healing, Let’s Get It On
Now I understand that Marvin Gaye was the Prince of Motown and I’m not denying that he was ahead of his time, but I wish that 92.5 would just pick one of his songs a day and not play all four of these. Sometimes they play five of his songs if you include, Got to Give It Up. I can probably live the rest of my life without hearing Let’s Get It On ever again.
2) Al Green– Let’s Stay Together and I’m Still In Love With You.
I know Al is the man, but they play these two songs so often that my brain is now convinced they are the same song.
3) The Bee Gees– We all know their songs, there’s only so much Night Fever and Staying Alive we can take.
4) The Mary Jane Girls– All Night Long
I love me some Mary Jane Girls, but they do have some other songs besides this one and I know you have them 92.5 because I hear you play them once in a blue moon.

That War of the Roses bit is pretty entertaining but its FUBAR at the same time.
I want them to call me because I’ll know whats up and I would totally mess with them.
Wait…first I need to be suspected of cheating on someone, which means that I need a girlfriend thats suspecting me of cheating on her to call in.
Completely disregard this review until further notice.

Great to have some variety. Cant listen to rock stations all the time and the R&B and Pop today just dont have the feelgood tunes like 92.5 plays. You cant listen to thing song without thinking back to some of the best (and worst) times in your life.

One of my top favorite stations. Although I love the old school 70’s music, the R and B ‘top hits’ from like 3 years ago that they added not too long ago, are not appriciated.

definitely my second favorite station on the air waves. I just cant get enough old school. I recomend tuning in on friday night… its super ill def
