1997

In 1997, Crowley left the BBC to join the London's first indie station, Chris Parry's XFM, where Steve Lamacq, Mary Anne Hobbs and Alan Freeman had broadcast in test transmissions.

Crowley was given the mid-morning show but on the day before launch, Diana, Princess of Wales died, and so on 1 September 1997 Crowley had to open the new radio station with the words:

It's Monday the first of September, and welcome to XFM, broadcasting on 104.9.

We find ourselves starting a radio station today in circumstances we wouldn’t have wished, due to the tragic death of Diana, Princess of Wales.

As a mark of respect to someone we saw as someone going her own way, standing apart from the rest, and for being a remarkable ambassador in the struggles for the dispossessed, the sufferers of leprosy and AIDS, and the ongoing horror of land mines, we wish to dedicate the activities of our launch day to her memory.

1998

In August 1998, Crowley left XFM along with Ricky Gervais and others when the station was sold to Capital.

Crowley had been offered XFM's overnight slot, and soon returned to the renamed BBC London 94.9, where he fronts a two-hour weekly show on Saturday evenings.
