Zepaholic Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 I'm driving home tonight, listening to the radio and for the umpteenth time i hear the pompous Sting screech...RAHHHHHHX-Anne.

zepyep Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Hi all, Well,I think commerical radio almost makes one dislike certain songs,they play them so dang much.I've have always been of the thought that is I like a song,then I like it.Same on the flip side,......

Footsteps of Dawn Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 D'yer Mak'er...putain de merde! I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I cannot tell you how many times I've heard this on the radio. I can still listen to Stairway without blowing a gasket, but I WILL NOT tolerate that song any-fooking-more! Ok, and this is weird. I was sick and tired of hearing Lynyrd Skynyrd's Gimme Three Steps on the radio, but since I've bought the CD, I don't mind hearing it so much. Something about being able to choose when you hear it makes the whole thing go down a lot better. There's something irritating about it coming on the radio for the umpteenth time which makes me go into this cycle of screaming, "NOT AGAIN!" and then entering into this huge tirade of, "You have the entire Skynyrd catalog to choose from, and what do you play? This or Sweet Home Alabama every! bleeding! time! Why God, why?" It's much better to hear GTS knowing that the next Skynyrd song you hear could be something totally random like Sweet Little Missy, and not GTS AGAIN! Things will get bloody if I hear Don't Stop Believing, though. If my radio wouldn't turn off and was stuck on one channel, I seriously think I would rip it out of the dash and hurl it out the window. I might not even pull over to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kakdaddy Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I'm a bartender so two great ones were already mentioned: "Captain Jack" & "The Logical Song". If another drunken frat boy sings "Captain Jack" or "Piano Man" I will put them through a wall. The "Logical Song" is just annoying. Any song off of Meatloaf's "Bat Out Of Hell" album. I forget which restaurant chain that used "Sweet Home Alabama" in their commercials, but it spawned a generation of drunken college girls singing that at the top of their lungs. Normally I don't have a problem with drunken women 15 years younger than me but there's a time & place, & neither involves "Sweet Home Alabama". I prefer the sound of rabid Dolphins to that screeching ( the girls, not Skynyrd ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow, i'm not sure i believe you about the "screeching girls" but okay, lol. I can no longer tolerate "Black Dog". I have to really be in the mood for long time overplayed songs like Stairway to Heaven and Free Bird. I will agree on Sweet Home Alabama, too. There are plenty more i could name.

JTM Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Far too many songs to mention, in particular %95 of the music from the 1980s was complete and utter shite............On a more positive note most of the music from 1964 to 1976 was absolutely brilliant..defo the golden years imho.
