Originally Posted By wahooskipper I listen to country and Brad Paisley gets played...a lot. Of course, he has a number of hit songs but he seems to be the artist du jour. Of course, Taylor Swift is right up there too. And, on Disney Radio, anything from the High School Musical series.

Originally Posted By Princessjenn5795 Like Mele, I live in the Seattle area, so anything that falls in the alternative category plays over and over. I rarely listen to the radio anymore.

Originally Posted By Autopia Deb Man I wish our Alt-Rock station would play STP, Pearl Jam and the others. We get the softer side of Alt. But that station sucks less than any other station around here. Lately they've been playing a lot of Mumford and Sons, "The Cave" being the song that's getting the most air time the last couple weeks. I kind of dig the group and the song.

Originally Posted By Labuda I went with a modern song for this (though, truth by told, I hear "Jack & Diane" at LEAST once a week): One Republic's "Secrets" Nice little song.

(Although if we had my way GNR would be struck from all records)" Yeah, Sweet Child came out when I was in middle school and I'm going to my 20th high school reunion this fall, so it's classic. And shame on you, Longhorn, for not showing love to GNR!
Originally Posted By skinnerbox I listen to the radio, but only for news, progressive talk, and NPR comedy (Prairie Home, Car Talk, Wait Wait, etc). I never listen to music from a music-focused station; that's what my iPod and iPhone are for. So, I got nothing.
