Persistent earworm alert XLVIII

For some reason, an '80s KYKY jingle, sung to the tune of the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel's "Messiah," has been on my mind:

"Phillips and Wall!  Phillips and Wall!  In the morning, in the morning, on KY98!"

When the station changed its abbreviated identifier from KY98 to Y98 FM in 1985, different singers cut another jingle in a similar style, but it just wasn't the same.  Y98 FM has too many syllables to work effectively in that context.
