A quick poll: Music on the Radio

[jeni]

i don't listen to
the radio

i'm really sick of the music that is being played on the radio around here. we get a plethora of stations, and unfortunately most of them play spanish speaking people or singers (this is unfortunate for me because i don't enjoy the music and i need to brush up on my spanish skills before i can begin to understand what they're saying). the rest of them play shit like sum 41 and no doubt. i don't know WHY, in the past 2 years, music has gone horribly wrong, but i don't enjoy listening to the same whiny-voiced singers, layered with terrible guitar riffs, over and over again.

there is one station i can stand listening to. reason being, every time i turn it on in the car, tool is on. it's variety tool, too. i've only heard the same song twice, and those instances were a month apart. of course this isn't to say they didn't play that song ten thousand times while i had the radio off.

if i could actually get decent stations here, i'd pick these two genres/formats.
