With echoes of Spacehog with a tinge of sugar, this song is catchy and melodic. Radio friendly, indeed.

Story behind the song
About the transparency of fame, and the lack of credibility that comes with it. It's what happens when you're not true to yourself.
Lyrics
RADIO FRIENDLY Yesterday was right on time It paid a visit when you closed your eyes Water dripping from the ceiling Downstairs playing the café You felt singled out Less than all the best Wouldn’t settle for nothing less So you took your songs And chucked ‘em all Can’t make it with those they said So you lost yourself and sold them a lie and now you’re Radio Friendly A Radio Star You’re Radio Friendly Yeah that’s what you are It’s no good to tell you I think you’ll go far Now they love you for your talent Although you haven’t played a note on any albums Sometimes they let you write a song Then laugh behind your back when you ask to put it on You feel singled out Compromised and cold And you wonder why you got no soul You got your money But you got no cred Your star burns hot then you lose your head You’ll always be a belle at the ball when you’re Radio Friendly A Radio Star You’re Radio Friendly Yeah that’s what you are It’s no good to tell you I think you’ll go far You feel singled out Less than all the best And you wonder how you lost control But you made it here Where everyone cheers Then you realize what you’ve always known You never really made it at all but You’re Radio Friendly A Radio Star You’re Radio Friendly Yeah that’s what you are It’s no good to tell you I think you’ll go far
