Usually, when a song is played twice, it's by accident and the DJ makes some excuse. Here, the DJ says that he's about to do and makes it happen.

Joe McG:

If you need some fun reading, John's two autobiographies, "Cor Baby That's Really Me" and "I Did It Otway" are wonderful. Helpful dates: Theatre 80 this Sunday the 20th (live perfomance) and at the AMC Loews with the premiere of "Rock 'N' Roll's Greatest Failure" on Monday the 21st with a Q&A afterwards.
