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:

  • The Head and The Heart "After the Setting Sun"
  • Wilco "A Magazine Called Sunset"
  • Kacey Musgraves "Golden Hour"
  • Michael Franti & Spearhead "The Sound of Sunshine Going Down"

Weekdays at Noon
