It's so hard these days to find a good Oldies station.

yeah man, iPhones/blackberries and SiriusXM are really hard to use.

[littlefallsmets]

Yeah, A-CAP, but isn't there something spontaneous and magical if its an actual radio station? Doesn't it somehow count for more if it is an actual broadcast plucked outta the sky, a live person not all that physically far from you occasionally talking about a traffic accident two miles away from you or whatever between songs and ads? I honestly get something more out of that.



Some guy like that, out there, alive, and when he plays the song you dig, it is like a gift just for you, not the luck of a random setting in a computer somewhere. You could be the only one listening or there could be thousands! Who knows. I dunno, man, I find the whole idea fuckin' enchanting.

If I JUST wanted to listen to the exact songs I like, exactly in the order I want them, I would listen to my CDs.

But radio's got surprise and magic going for it.

[theinevitable]

that is my dream, that some weird guy is out there really getting into my radio show.
one time a random guy actually did call in because he really liked something I played.

also, I have only heard people talk maybe twice on KZQZ. We fantasize that it's a big, old-fashioned computer somewhere spinning the hits.

I rarely listen to the radio any more, because usually if I'm driving somewhere without the kids I prefer the silence. But yesterday I heard a DJ use the word "paen," correctly pronounced and in its proper context.

I was impressed, and thought maybe I should listen to the radio more.

Lady Gaga Rocks!  I don't give two shits if she's sold out or cashed in or whatever the fuck, she's making the best pop music out in a long time and I enjoy listening to it.

[greenkoolayd]

lady gaga has a lot more artistic credibility than fergie.

[Drygioni]

Lady Gaga and her vestigial c*ck can fuck right off.

As if the constant over-exposure to her music wasn't enough to set me over the edge this ruined my Friday evening a couple months back

A bipedal chihuahua singing in an incredibly flat annoying voice punctuated with godawful shrieking and scary faces and blatantly not singing on the choruses

If you don't have much time skip towards 2.00 mins in and watch for a few seconds and I sincerely hope you do not experience the same wish that I did to throw up because it was not pleasant

I accept that she is omnipresent, good at what she does and catchy but so is the common flu

I hadn't seen that one Judy, thanks for the link.

Haha. That's alright mate. I'm glad my pathetic ranting brought about by boredom and a severe dose of man flu has let a music fan enjoy some music they like.

I love Lady Gaga.  Making fun of her nose is akin to making fun of Freddie Mercury's snaggle teeth.  It is irrelevant.  She is fug on purpose.  Selling out would be getting the rhinoplasty 90% of famous people get.

I have no idea if Lady Gaga is good or not, as I simply lack the ability to enjoy any dance music, not matter how good or bad it is said to be by the standards of dance music.

She might be good?

I was raised with the idea that music is something to be enjoyed, sitting still in a corner, listening intently to each note.

My dad has every King Crimson on vinyl. It rendered me basically colour-blind to any appreciation of dance music.

It definitely seemed like she had a ween in those pictures, though. That or she was rocking five maxipads at once for some inscrutable reason.

I always the thought the main criteria for dance music is whether or not it makes you want to dance. As a non-dancer, I may be mistaken.

I actually like to listen to dance music while I read, especially on a plane or hotel where it's never really quiet. When I listen to other music I get caught up in the lyrics but since dance/techno has no or few lyrics it makes better background.
