    What is the song that has been played over 8 million times on the radio and is the most played song of all time?

    Question #3140. Asked by Helen17. (Jun 09 00 8:58 PM)

    		The most-played song, heard over 8 million times, was 'You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling', written by Barry Mann, Phil Spector and Cynthia Weil. If the song were played 8 million times, one after the other, it would take over 45 years to finish.

    This is about the song "2112" alone, not the rest of the album or anything else Rush-related. The epic more than deserves special attention! Questions 1-10 are mainly about the events in the song, 11-15 about the song itself, and 16-20 are lyrics.
