5 Reasons Radio Pig Is Your Home for Classic Hits
From non-stop 80s and 90s music to a blog packed with countdowns and stories, here's why classic hits fans keep coming back to Radio Pig.
There are a lot of places to hear music online. Streaming platforms, playlists, podcasts, YouTube rabbit holes that start with one Bon Jovi video and end three hours later with you watching a documentary about the making of Hysteria.
We get it. We've been there.
But if you're a classic hits fan — someone who grew up with the 80s and 90s, or someone who discovered that era and never looked back — Radio Pig is built specifically for you. Here's why fans keep tuning in.
1. Non-Stop Classic Hits, 24 Hours a Day
No algorithms. No "you might also like." No playlists that drift into something you didn't ask for.
Radio Pig plays classic hits from the 70s, 80s, and 90s around the clock. We're talking Journey, Fleetwood Mac, Bon Jovi, Heart, Def Leppard, Pat Benatar, Guns N' Roses, and hundreds more. The songs that defined a generation — and the ones that still sound just as good today.
Whether you're working, driving, cooking, or just want something great on in the background, Radio Pig is always on and always playing the good stuff.
2. You Can Actually Request Songs
Remember when radio was interactive? When you could call in and ask the DJ to play your favourite song?
Radio Pig brings that back. Head to our song request page and submit a track — we'll get it on air. It's one of the things our listeners love most, and it's one of the things that makes Radio Pig feel like a real radio station rather than just a playlist.
Got a song that takes you back? A track you want to dedicate to someone? We've got you.
3. The Radio Pig Blog
We don't just play the music — we talk about it.
The Radio Pig blog is where we dig into the stories behind the songs, rank the greatest tracks of the era, and explore why 80s and 90s music continues to resonate decades later. Recent posts include our deep dive into why 80s music is making a massive comeback and our definitive ranking of the 10 greatest 80s power ballads of all time.
If you love the music, you'll love the blog. New posts go up regularly — bookmark it.
4. The Hub 901 App
Radio Pig is available on the Hub 901 app, which means you can take the station with you wherever you go. Stream from your phone, your tablet, or your desktop — the music follows you.
The app is free to download and gives you instant access to the live stream, now-playing info, and album art so you always know what's on. It's the easiest way to keep Radio Pig in your pocket.
5. It's Built by People Who Actually Love This Music
This isn't a corporate algorithm deciding what "classic hits" means. Radio Pig is built by people who grew up with this music, who know the difference between a power ballad and a rock anthem, and who genuinely believe that the 70s, 80s, and 90s produced some of the greatest songs ever recorded.
That passion comes through in everything we do — the music we play, the blog posts we write, and the way we talk about the artists and songs that matter.
