Slightly off topic, but how the f
k does anybody listen to ste like Heart FM on a regular basis? They only appear to own one mix cd. Honestly, they're playing some songs up to 4 times a day, EVERY DAY.
I thought Heart's tagline was "The same five fk does anybody listen to ste like Heart FM on a regular basis? They only appear to own one mix cd. Honestly, they're playing some songs up to 4 times a day, EVERY DAY. king songs all day!"Still, rather that than "Red, Red Wine"!
Can't listen to the radio any more now, you can run through all 8 pre sets in the car and every one of them will either be adverts about a new car, or two no-marks talking ste to each other. I have been plugging my phone into my stereo for years now and just listening to the music off that.
The worst is when you walk on site and someone has already got the radio on, it bad enough if its tuned to kiss 102 or whatever its called nowadays but even worse if the bloke that has it on is in his forties.

At the risk of sounding like an old git, can none of you remember the sixties and early seventies when there was virtually no chart music broadcast on radio, maybe a couple of hours of FM in the afternoon, the rest on crackly hissy AM R1 or Radio Luxembourg (evenings only).
An hour of proper music per week on TV plus TOTP on Thursdays was all you got, no CDs or IPods, no MTV, nothing, you don't know you're born, stop whingeing.
If I wanted to learn a song to play in my band I either had to buy the record for 3 hours wages or tape it off the radio on a scratchy cassette recorder, no You Tube to listen to or cheap downloads, get off my lawn............ oh dear am I ranting?

I hate commercial radio - I used to listen to Planet Rock ,but even that has gone down the tubes.
5 minutes of music , 3 minutes of Smashy and Nicey and 5 minutes of adverts !!!
Not Arf !!!!
Worst record - there are quite a few but Number one for me ??
Kiss – Crazy crazy crazy Nights
Repeat those 4 words ad nauseum...
GAK !!!

Can't stand listening to any radio.
Adverts rule out anything outside of the BBC. I just can't cope with the cheesy jingles they stuff on the radio.
BBC stations are slightly better but the music they play is all a little safe and boring. I did listen to Zane Lowe a few times as a passenger and thought he actually had his ear on the pulse of the music scene but from what I remember he only got airtime in the late evenings.
If I'm ever in a hire car without an auxiliary input then I just sit in silence rather than listen to the radio.

Happy birthday or I just called to say I love you by Stevie Wonder. They are both beyond awful, but it's made so much worse because he used to be so great. How can the same bloke who wrote Living For The City and Mistra Know It All, and many other classics, produce such utter dirge. How can talent disappear to that extent?
Have to agree 100% and don't forget Ebony & Ivory with Macca.Looks like there's a limit on the number of good choons in any person.
It makes you wonder what sort of tat Hendrix or Jim Morrison would be putting out these days.
You have a point about Morrison & Hendrix, perhaps dying at 27 is the way forward for anyone with real talent. Saves the shame of churning out total s
t when you're older, and destroying your hard won reputation.Gassing Station | Music | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
