I love listening to music, but I have heard this song 7 times a day at least for the last week! How much longer are the radio stations going to repeat a song. Until, the burn you out on it or drive you crazy with it or what? Taylor Swift with Love Story. I am not kidding I like the song a lot, but now they are burning me out on it! Soon, I will hate it. They did the same thing with Carrie Underwood's with Before he Cheats. I really like that song but, now I am burned out on it! Do you ever feel this way? Why do you think the play a song so much at once?

I know what you mean, I heard that song twice today on the radio...and I don't listen to it much.
It would be totally acceptable to bring back some of the kind of older songs and play those, you know, once in a while just to keep the current songs from getting old within the first month.

I agree play some of the songs not only from now but from other times like when we where young. Dolly Parton, Eddie Rabbit, or even Captain and Tennille ha ha Anything to mix it up a little.

Oh my gosh? Is country music becoming popular again?
I don't like modern country music.
When I think of good country music, I think of the '70s, when it was produced in such a way that actually made you feel good. One such song I can think of is Larry Gatlin's "When I Fall." How about Ray Stevens's rendition of "Misty," from '75? Or 1976's "Let Your Love Flow," by the Bellamy Brothers?
Charley Pride's "Kiss An Angel Good Morning?" Or John Denver's "Annie's Song?" or "Hey It's Good To Be Back Home Again?" Keith Carradine's "I'm Easy?" I could go on and on and on.
They just don't make 'em like that anymore.
You're right, Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood do get kinda old after awhile.

And that.... is why I don't listen to the radio anymore than I have to. Sometimes it's on at work and that's okay-ish but on my own time, sitting at home or whatever, I avoid it like the plague.
