listener requests

Songs fans want

Listener requests are songs or topics that audience members ask to hear on radio programs, podcasts, or live performances.

The phrase implies interactive programming where the host accommodates audience preferences: We're taking listener requests for the next hour, Send in your listener requests.

By extension, any situation where an audience shapes content through direct appeals.
