This may just be a me thing, but there’s only so many times you can hear a bunch of white girl wasted 19 year olds yell about moving to the back of the bus before you sour on a song

I can’t get this song out of my head. I play it every damn time the podcast finishes before the walk. So damn catchy

I came to say “Hey Ya!” by them, back in late 2002 to early 2003 you legit could not turn on a pop station without hearing it within 10 minutes.

“On the Nature of Daylight” is the second track off of Richter’s 2004 album The Blue Notebooks, which the composer produced in the run-up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq as a work of protest art.

Recently used in ep3 of The Last of Us.

Have you ever considered living a lifestyle where you don’t notice if a song is overplayed?

I can’t hear that song without thinking of Guitar Hero.

Every song from Guitar Hero 1 and 2 is completely ruined for me.

But then I wouldn’t be doing my duty of endless consumption for my corporate overlords! Life is service fees.

I can’t imagine a life where I don’t leave myself open for topics to trash talk. Maybe I just don’t want to.

Got played into absolute oblivion in Australia. At one stage while I was driving it was playing at the same time on three of the five most popular music radio stations.

Yes I have mostly transitioned to not getting my music from terrestrial radio…but even Alexa fucks me on the reg. The girls in the outer office pick a genre, and Alexa proceeds to play some songs three times in an 8-hour shift. It’s maddening

I dunno if this is overplay but companies using good songs in pretentious commercials sometimes ruins them for me. Most recent is Chevrolet and “Everywhere” by Fleetwood Mac.
