I have been listening to the radio on the interwebs at work when my boss isn't in. This week will be one full week of radio listening. I have formed the following opinions regarding the music that is being played on the radio (I listen to Just the Hits! Todays Hottest Hit Music, so I am assuming that it's the same crap they play on the regular top 40 fm radio stations):
1. I am not a fan of Justin Bieber. I feel I have no room for him in my life. I don't like the fact that he sounds like he is a 10 year old girl. I don't like that he uses improper grammar. It irritates me. I hate his hair as well. That is more of a side note since you really can't see what people look like on the radio. I saw him on something on tv before.
2. Most of Taylor Swift's songs make me want to cry. Not because they are so poignant but because I like them so little. I don't want to listen to whiny songs about love as a 15 year old. I lived there at one point in time, 15 years ago, now please shut up about it. And Taylor, my dear, you should get over it as well. You will be old enough to drink this year. You haven't been 15 in quite a while yourself.
3. I can't go directly to the website to listen to the radio. I have to go through the radio station guide that is in my favorites on my web browser at work. This has been here since I started working at the firm and this is the first time I have actually utilized it. However, the station plays through Windows Media Player and the artist/song titles are not available. This brings me to my actual point. I have no idea who some of these people are without someone telling me and some of them sound exactly alike. So if I hear something that I really like I have to sit here and try to memorize every word so I can either ask someone (by singing it to them) or hope that I catch enough of the lyrics to do a google search. This annoys me, and I have no one to blame but myself.
4. I actually enjoy the mix of all of the genres of music this channel plays, even the country, which is hard to believe (excluding most Taylor Swift of course). I guess I can tolerate more than I first believed I could when it comes to music. I also like the fact that there is no classic rock played. I am officially sick of classic rock.
5. I now realize that since the invention of the iPod I have been living under a rock and not trying to experience any new music. With the discovery of this new found radio freedom at work I think I will be expanding my music collection to include some more up to date songs. I look forward to this journey.
Oh, on a side note, when you get a chance listen to the song "Because I'm Awesome" by the Dollyrots... this has been one of my favorite songs for the past few years. They just played it on my Hits radio station which surprises me.
