Whats the song you hate the most on the radio?

yeah, what's wrong with radio? radio reaches out to a certain audience, and if you do not belong to the audience, step away from it. it's only natural. just like how you stop listening to a song you dislike.

also, "hate" is rather harsh don't you think? sure you might dislike the song because of its lyrics or it isn't up to your standards, but do really hate the song that much as if it affected your life? i don't think so.

and stop with the need to dislike radio to show how anti-mainstream you are. we're grown up and past that stage.
 
why so serious?
to everyone:
the guy asks "what song you hate the most", and all of you go on your makeshift high horses enlightening all of us on how open-minded you are. how about answering the question?

and about the word "hate". Hate isn't a strong word all the time, it's the context. It's similar to love. E.g "oh god I love rainbow cake it tastes like a piece of heaven!" "oh shit I hate rainbow cake it tastes like shit!" or "oh god I love Sarah she changed my life!" "oh god I hate Sarah she had sex with my brother!" All about the context, I'm sure the threadstarter wanted to murder beyonce.
Soft's downfall is the air of being overly politically correct all the time. E.g: Always having to state that every single thing you say that involves something negative is your opinion.
This applies particularly to music. If you can say "<Movie A/Food Item A/Whatever sucks>", why can't I say "<Band A/(godforbid)Local Band A> sucks"? Sure, it's my opinion, no shit. What now? Why is music here treated like some holy grail of topics?

Anyway, I don't really listen to the radio but from occasional bursts of it in the car, I dislike pretty much everything on it.

No, that is untrue, I truly dislike pop music. It's about as entertaining and inspiring as watching a faulty light flicker on and off.

turn off the radio

I hate the radio, specifically the music on the radio. I threw out the antenna that came with my hi-fi, I import my CDs, pay a premium, so I should be listening to those more.
:rolleyes:

I don't know about you, but before you decide to pass a stupid comment/suggestion, I seriously suggest you read the preceding posts carefully.

You just shot yourself in the foot.

not really.
no need to throw a hissy fit, i was merely making an indirect suggestion of listening to pop music that isn't on the radio.
 
Due to the fact there is only text here, it is inevitable that I can take any meaning which those words could imply. The absence of the tone of voice makes a large difference, be more specific.

You made an ill-informed statement and you are now attempting some damage control by accusing me of throwing a hissy fit, how quaint.

i can see what you're saying and i'm sorry you took it out of context. but that was what i meant.
 
Erm, back on topic to the title thread, I would have to say

1. Miley Cyrus
2. Jonas Brothers
3. Metro Station
4. Secondhand Serenade
5. Rihanna

I simply cringe and crumble at the sounds of them. You guys say that if you dont like mainstream music, den just dont listen to it. But mainstream music is just so accessible that its literally everywhere. Commercials, ringtones etc etc so as much as you want to avoid it, you cant.

But radio music is not all doom and gloom. James Morrison, Jason Mraz, Coldplay are class acts that I enjoy on the radio. (:
 
Yup. There are some nice songs on the radio. Not all mainstream is bad, like some people seem to think. You can't appreciate it doesn't mean it's lousy, because other people might appreciate it. You can't argue taste.
 
Why bother with the radio when you have your favorite songs/albums in your mp3 player.

Searching for new music?
The internet is a better option than the radio.

If you are 19 and have younger siblings, den you would understand what I mean when you have to watch disney with them. Thats where all the jonas brothers and miley music come from. Haha.

Or when you are in the car with your family, and you dont have control on what you want to listen to. I used to plug my earpiece when in the car and listen to my Ipod at the back, but its quite a hassle cause in the car your parents wants to chat with you and you have to keep pausing the music.

But of course, my main source of new music is the internet like you mentioned. I like discovering new acts on my own rather than my friends recommendations. (:
 
syam41, do you think your sibling and parents like what you are listening? I am sure you would feel sad if they publicly condemn the kind of music we listen to.

The solution is to find middle ground. If we don't like, we just move away from it. No need condemn them.

Somehow, we as music student, should be able to listen pass the genre and pick up melody, arrangement, production and musicianship in those music and add on to our knowledge. We should be different from casual listener.

A painter uses palette of color to paint. Not to limit oneself with just shades of grey.
 
Mr Soft, they do. they do condemn certain music that I listen, but thats really a different story altogether. But there are certain ones that we both happen to like, and we all would sing along together.

About songs that I hate, I do not tell them that its crap, please turn it off. No, I listen to it alot of times, and I judge it after that. Why cant I not like certain music? Because Im a musician and I have to accept all kinds of music?

I love alot forms of music. Yes, indie and punk are my preferred choice, but I dont discriminate genres. Heck, I even have Rick Astley and Lil Wayne on my ipod! In every genre, there are some that you will love, and some you will hate. Do you seriously happen to like everything that you listen to? Yes, like you said, if you dont like it, you just move away, but in my case, and im sure with alot, the music is there and you have no choice but to listen to it anyways.

Using your painter analysis, not every painting a painter would love. Im sure there are some they hate and would criticise.

No disrespect to you Mr Soft.
 
syam41, no problem. I am just offering my views on how we could live better without hatred.
 
well i think this is the time when we should put on our earphones/headphones: don't need to listen to other people's music, can also listen to our own music.

haha, actually I wouldnt go as far as hatred. more to, irritating and annoying. hatred is too extreme come to think of. after all, i still can bring myself to listen to them. (:
