I actually called in once to my local station and requested REM - What's the Frequency Kenneth. Seems absurd now but I really wanted to hear the song and didn't own the tape or CD and no such thing as mp3s so the only way you could hear it was requesting it or just waiting for it to come on.
edit: With the wonders of the internet, I just looked up the song and found this:
"On October 4, 1986, while walking along Park Avenue to his apartment in Manhattan, Dan Rather was attacked and punched from behind by a man who demanded to know "Kenneth, what is the frequency?" while a second assailant chased and beat him. As the assailant pummeled and kicked Rather, he kept repeating the question. In describing the incident, Rather said, "I got mugged. Who understands these things? I didn't and I don't now. I didn't make a lot of it at the time and I don't now. I wish I knew who did it and why, but I have no idea."[94] Until the crime was resolved years later, Rather's description of the bizarre crime led some to doubt the veracity of his account,[95] although the doorman and building supervisor who rescued Rather fully confirmed his version of events.[94]
The assault remained unsolved for some time, and was referenced multiple times in popular culture. The phrase "What's the frequency, Kenneth?" became a popular-culture reference over the years, such as in a scene in the graphic novel Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron by cartoonist Daniel Clowes. In 1994, the band R.E.M. released the song "What's the Frequency, Kenneth?" on their album Monster. Rather later sang with R.E.M. during a sound check prior to a gig at New York's Madison Square Garden, which was shown the following night on the Late Show with David Letterman before their performance of "Crush with Eyeliner"."
