So I think that it is pretty sad our local radio station that boasts ‘Today’s hottest music!’ and ‘The most hits every hour!’ seem to satisfy those claims in the following manner:
I find that ‘Today’s hottest music!’ translates to the five most popular songs among teenyboppers and teenagers at the current moment at least one every hour and a half. It is pretty sad that today alone I have heard the new Taylor Swift song at least six times since 8a. I know I have heard it at least six times because at that point I find myself remembering lyrics to songs, and I just shocked myself with how much I have memorized when it played yet again. And isn’t Taylor Swift country? Why is she playing on a rock/pop (even tho calling this stuff rock is a HUUUUGE stretch…) station?
‘The most hits every hour!’ seems to be accomplished by mixing in with those five songs loved so dearly by teenyboppers and teenagers number ones that date back all the way to the early 90s. Along with the news that rocks their little worlds. If I hear OMG JUSTIN BIEBER CUT HIS HAIR!! one more time I swear I am going to scream. This DJ is a grown man, and should not be getting that excited about this kid’s haircut.
And does this noise created by Ke$ha really count as music? I wonder if getting drunk would help it sound better. She sounds kinda drunk, so it might make sense when you are in that special state of awareness.
One would assume from their advertising they play the newest, hippest, hottest tunes. In reality, it’s just the same sad stuff they have played for the past few years with a few new bits mixed in to make it ‘fresh’.
