Turning Japanese by The Vapors has been played 1224 times on XperienceRewind with 294 requests

This track is taking a little rest from requests during our nightly Love4Hours session.
From 10pm to 2am GMT, XperienceRewind goes full slow-jam mode - deep neon glow, soft lights, and nothing but the smoothest love songs on the dial.

During this time, certain tracks step aside to keep the mood flowing just right.
As soon as Love4Hours winds down, this song will be available for requests again, ready to spin back into the mix.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the late-night vibes...
