"You may not get that reference to the cult 1992 Lemonheads album, but I'd bet Ray D'Arcy does. That was exactly the kind of slightly-left-of-centre stuff he'd play back in his radio pomp on Today FM from the late 1990s to 2014. (I still, believe it or not, remember a brilliant, previously unheard Eddie Vedder cover of You've Got to Hide Your Love Away.)"
"Seasoned pro once put me at ease on show but flat format of RTÉ programme didn't light up airwaves like good old days of presenter's hit radio show It's a shame about Ray. You may not get that reference to the cult 1992 Lemonheads album, but I'd bet Ray D'Arcy does.

Ray D'Arcy once put guests at ease on his RTÉ show, but the programme's flat format failed to ignite the airwaves like his radio work. He played slightly left-of-centre music during his Today FM prime from the late 1990s to 2014. Music choices included cult tracks such as the 1992 Lemonheads album and a rare Eddie Vedder cover of 'You've Got to Hide Your Love Away.' His radio tenure showcased eclectic, surprising selections that contrasted with the RTÉ programme's more muted presentation. The contrast produced disappointment among listeners expecting similar vitality.
