Yup:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You've_Lost_That_Lovin'_Feelin'

Maybe it could be replaced with "I Hate Myself for Loving You" by Joan Jett, "You Make Loving Fun" by Fleetwood Mac, or "Keep On Loving You" by REO Speedwagon?

I had a hard time figuring out how to read the clue, "When the radio doesn't come in all you can hear is ..."

In retrospect, shouldn't there be a comma between "come in" and "all you can hear"?

As a non native speaker, I second that. It would have been way easier for me to understand.

But I would not have found the solution anyway haha!

Yes, but neither 6 letters long, nor would it fit into the chain.

haha I didn't even realise they need to be 6 letters! I got them all though, but it took some hard work. had no idea about winter tried white, and moved on, couldnt think of the next two either. In the end I came back to it and randomly guessed winter (my first try after white) and was very surprised it was actually correct haha. that got me the other ones too.

The moody blues was a guess too btw, but not really surprised it was right. And skipped the remix initially too.

Pedant alert: Reverb is not necessarily electronically produced: it can be physical (environmental) or mechanical also.
