Which coincidence would be more coincidental?

Regina Spektor’s song “On The Radio” – a personal favorite – has a chorus that goes:

On the radio
You’ll hear ‘November Rain’
That solo’s awful long
But it’s a good refrain

You listen to it twice
‘Cause the DJ is asleep
On the radio (Oh-oh-oh)
On the radio

So here’s my question:

Which would be more surprising based upon these lyric?:

To hear ‘November Rain’ played twice on the radio (because the DJ presumably fell asleep) or to hear ‘On the Radio’ played twice?

Elysha says ‘November Rain.’

I say ‘On the Radio.’

Honestly, I was just happy that she indulged me by answering my stupid question.
