There are so many reasons why I hate the radio. I'm going to tell you every single one. If you're anything like me, you love listening to music. I like many different genres and varieties (NOT country). But unfortunately, the radio gives us the complete opposite of variety. Of course, that depends on which station you listen to and how often you listen. At my work, we have a radio that plays on our phones that is set to KVIL, which is supposed to be the "variety" channel. That's a terrible name because they play the same 3 songs over and over again. Counting Stars by One Republic, Royals by Lorde, and Say Something by A Great Big World. I used to like Counting Stars, nut now that I've heard it a million+ times, I can't stand it. I would rather listen to cats fighting than any of these songs. I'm sick of all the repetition. Everyone in that studio should be arrested for false advertising and treason against music.
I heard a song the other day that I really liked. For The First Time by The Script. It really touched my heart, but it was on that stupid station. You know what that means? They're going to play it out and ruin it. That's another thing i hate about that kind of radio. They'll play some songs so much that they lose their meaning. For example, I used to think that Say Something was a really serious song. It made me depressed. After listening to it once, I was so depressed I felt like dying. I don't even know why they decided to put that on the air in the first place, but they did. Anyways, now that I've heard it so many times, it annoys me. Whenever it comes on, I feel like taking the radio and throwing it out in the street... stomping on it a few times, smashing it with a bat, give it a few punches... I've seen Office Space too many times. But seriously, that's how much I hate that song and radio station.
Let's talk about news radio. I don't think it's any better than the other stations. Sure you don't have to listen to the same songs over and over again. But I think that's better than listening to the news. Let me get one thing straight, I HATE the news. I've always hated the news. "But it keeps you up to date on what's going on in the world Rachael!" So? I don't care about what's going on. Who really cares that a girl fell from 3500 feet and lived? I could have gone my entire life with out knowing that. I don't need to know what is going on in the world. What really bothers me about the news is all of the depressing stuff they talk about, like people getting murdered and raped. It's sick. I don't need to know these things.
People should be filling their heads with good information (or good music). If you don't have motivating audios or something like that, maybe you should try making a mix CD. It's fun and you can listen to your favorite songs. For someone like me, I make lots of different CD's with different genres and styles. So whatever I'm in the mood for, I can just pick out what I want to listen to.
That's really all I have for now. What do you think about the radio? Do you actually like listening to the same songs over and over again? Cause I sure don't...
Until next time...
God Bless You and God Bless America
