Tonight at sundown New Yorkers will be positioning themselves for a view of the sunset known as Manhattanhenge. A couple of times each year the sun lines up with the east-west cross streets of Manhattan to create great views of the sunset. To mark the occasion let's have your favorite songs about the sun (bonus points for sunset songs). We'll spin a set.

Hear your requests weekdays after 9 a.m.
Today's set:

  • corner club "Manhattanhenge"
  • Lucinda Williams "Big Red Sun Blues"
  • The Kinks "Waterloo Sunset"
  • The Rolling Stones "Happy"
  • Gordon Lightfoot "Sundown"

Weekdays at Noon
