Today I heard 106.1 "The Breeze" in Philly completely
skip over the intro of "Father Figure" (beginning
immediately with the vocals) and then very quickly fade
out and have the DJ talk over the ending. This is
different than co-owned 106.7 "Lite FM" in NYC which
plays the full song.

I've tried creating an edit on open reel back in the day
where I start the song about nine seconds in, and then
halving the second part of the intro by removing :25 to
:35. That sorta worked.
There was a time on CHR radio where one would try to keep
the flow moving into a stop set. So let's suppose I'm
coming out of Father Figure and into a strong national
spot. Right after Georgie finishes "time .... " you
could give the calls and back sell over the end music,
and even tease what's coming up. Then once you give a
time check and start the spot, the final seconds of music
are still underneath your voice. The flow keeps going.
