taffy -lrb- singer -rrb-

taffy -lrb- born katherine quaye , 1963 , new york -rrb- was an american 1980s hi-nrg and italo disco singer , known for her hit , `` i love my radio '' .
the song , produced by claudio cecchetto , who was also behind all her previous hits in italy , was released in the united kingdom by rhythm king 's transglobal records -lrb- both part of mute records in those days -rrb- and was originally a hit in italy in 1985 .
the song 's sentiments were about a disc jockey broadcasting in the early hours .
however as very few radio stations in the united kingdom broadcast after midnight in the late 1980s , this reference in the record was changed .
a re-recorded version called `` i love my radio -lrb- dee jay 's radio -rrb- '' was released instead .
this is the version that reached # 6 in the uk singles chart .
