Calling in to the radio station to request your song, then sitting with your fingers hovering above the play and record buttons for two hours, waiting for them to play it. Missing the first few seconds because you got distracted, but you were the first one at school on Monday with the new song, so it was worth it.
A cassette and a pencil.
Or if you have tiny little lady hands like me, a cassette and a pinky finger.
I did this when I was a child. I’m not sure my pinky would still fit anymore…
Not that I’ve even seen a cassette tape in years.
Fingernails ftw.
