starship "we built this city"

I don't ever trust Discogs when it comes to that type of info. The database says:

(4:50) RCA 67474 Roller Hockey - The Album (dj single version without rap but :20 longer)

In the DC area, I never heard the no-DJ rap version and don't recall hearing a version with local letters.

What's interesting though is that in 1977 when I lived outside Boston, there was a top 100 hit called "Turn on the Radio" by Glory, which had SUNG vocals for at least 3 different radio stations' call letters (at least one of which I have on cassette somewhere). I bought the 45 in the 1990s and it just had general lyrics in that line. As a kid I was fascinated by this record. I should add that the lines that had the call letters (like WVBF, etc.) had the same lead vocalist as the rest of the song - which means the label had the singer sing the call letters for (presumably) any radio station that requested it. A very smart thing to do promotion-wise - should have made it a hit. And it was a catchy pop song.

So this is a bit like the Starship situation - except the lead singer of the group re-sung the non-generic version of the lyrics for many stations. I wonder what stations, not in Boston or Providence, RI, played this song - either a personalized version or the generic version like what I found on 45.
