What song are you listening too v. 3sgto

[CoopKill]

We have no stations that play anything but 70's/80's/90's, and hiphop anymore.

Thing that blows me away is that she was 17 when she recorded that album.

After a while, even 70s/80s/90s sounds boring--because they mainly stick to the songs with the most radio airplay. I don't remember the last time I heard Duran Duran's "Skin Trade" or Karyn White's "The Way You Love Me" ON THE RADIO. And I can't stand hip-hop because they only play current crap...and I only listen to the stuff from ~1995 and before.

But at least you don't have only stations that play country. I'd never even turn on the radio if I had to endure that. Thank god a cheap MP3 player is like $40 shipped on ebay & I have virtually unlimited access (free & legal) to all the music I want--provided I can find it in a flash video.

It's an unfortunate side effect of the the modern copywrite issues... There is no such thing as an independent radio radio station, or artists(read record company that owns them) that would just be happy their material is getting air time. Everyone needs to get paid, and that gives us radio with "licensed" playlists that will make you want to throw things though a speaker even if you loved the song the first 600 times you heard it...

I just last week ordered a stereo for the truck so I can bt my phone's music. I have been reduced to NPR radio due to exactly what you are talking about. Even NPR/talk turns into parrot radio unfortunately.

It's not everywhere. WTTS in Bloomington 92.3FM was still (last time I checked) a fantastic station. COLLEGE radio station, so they don't stick to formulaic crap. WTTS was the first place I heard John Mayer's "no such thing"--a good SIX MONTHS before any other station had picked it up. WTTS was the first station I'd heard Jack Johnson (Flake)--and that was about a year before anyone else ever played it. WTTS was also the first place I heard Eric Clapton's cover of "somewhere over the rainbow" and John Melloncamp's cover of "stones in my passway" (the latter of which I've NEVER heard played on any other station--ever). WTTS introduced me to Indigenous (if you love SRV, you'll like Indigenous). I think I even was introduced to Poe by WTTS (either that or X103)--and that was back in 2002. Ben Lee was another artist I found on WTTS--and that was TWO FREAKING YEARS before "catch my disease" was used and abused by a Dell commercial.

Point being, since it was (hopefully still is) a college-ran station, that it isn't subject to all the monotony of "current hits" radio stations. Only reason I stopped listening was I moved out of the state.
