Once again fortune has humped my leg

Let's get interactive.

I drove down to NC this weekend and spent some quality time with the radio. Oddly, I kept hearing the same songs over and over again, like 30 minutes apart on different stations. But they weren't even recent. They were songs like "Nothing compares 2 U" and that Fiona Apple song. Come on, we're not talking classics here. Although, if the mood strikes me I will bust out with a little Sinead O'C. while ripping up a picture of the popemobile. Not the pope-that would be disrespectful and god knows I always try to be respectful of religion.

And did my ears deceive me or did I hear a "new" Hootie song? And why can I identify a new Hootie song?

Anywho, here's the interactive part. As I was driving, a few songs came on that I immediately had to turn off because they are so heinous. Here's my list of songs I can't sit through more than 3 seconds of:

1. Daughters-John Mayer
2. Anything by Nickelback
3. That goddamn "I hope you dance" song by some country singer! Kate, I know you like it but it makes me want to shove tree branches in my ears

Alternately, I will search high and low (on the dial-nothing like radio humor) for the following:

1. Poison-Bel Biv Devoe
2. Sweet Child o' Mine-Guns 'N Roses
3. Iesha-Another Bad Creation (that one's for you Emma)

What about you? No need to limit it to three!

P.S.-Three days and counting until I leave for Greece! EEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

  • Ugh. World travellers.

    As for the top 3 songs so loathsome that when they play on the radio I'm forced to change the station are:
    1) Anything by John Mayer. This is the creepiest young guy currently in music. Everything he sings seems like something he's humming to himself while watching a girl undress through their window. He's got "stalkerisma" (stalker charisma), and I don't know why that's attractive to all the young ladies who fall all over themselves for this guy.
    2) Presidents of the United States "Peaches". They play that crap around here all the time.
    3) "Self-Esteem" by the Offspring. Anything by the Offspring. One of the worst bands that got inexplicably popular of all time. I guess I hate groups more than just songs.

    Songs I crank up when I hear them:
    1) "Puttin' On the Ritz" by Taco. This happens so rarely that it's not even right to put it on the list. But there it is.
    2) "Earth to Major Tom" by I Don't know. My favorite song of all time and yeah. I know that makes me weird.
    3) "My Lifestyle Determines My Deathstyle" by Metallica. I just love that death can have a style all its own. All right. Your comments section has become my blog. Out.
