Songs That Boil Your P***
Discussion
I have to say after years of working in an adult shop it takes a whole lot to offend or upset me. That being said I've been hearing one song over and over on several of the local radio stations that really gets my panties in a twist.
Kelly Clarkson's "My Life Would Suck Without You"
Has anyone actually listened to the lyrics of this song?

To sum it up this guy told her to feck off pretty effectively, came back whining, and she's deliriously happy because her life would suck without him. They fight constantly, he's "screwed up" and they're viciously dysfunctional but her life would suck without him.
Really? This guy is a useless sack who has told you to ps off, but you're thrilled that he begged you to take him back?? Really? Lady, you need help. Or you deserve what you get. Either way I hardly feel it's a song I should be listening to kids singing along to when I'm out. Lets go and tell preteen/teenage girls that it's okay to keep a stty boyfriend around because their life would suck without them.
Am I completely off my rocker? Anyway, how about you guys? Any songs that get you going?

That Rednex thing. Whatever it was called. (I've tried to suppress the memory.) Or Billy Ray Cyrus's monstrosity.
Oh, and there's that Ride On Time whatnot, as well. Horrible, shouty woman.
And for some reason, whenever Hamilton Hocks in Maggie and the Ferocious Beast starts singing about "but to meeee, it's my cardboard box", I get this uncontrollable urge to hit the Off button.

Last one for me was that summer song thing from Kid Rock.
Firstly, the concept. It seemed to me like Kid had been listening to Summer of '69, and thought "hey that song sold bucketloads! I should do my own nostalgic summer song and I'll also sell bucketloads! Everyone has a summer they're nostalgic about.. this can't miss!"
Then, he steals / borrows the basic riff for the verses from that Werewolfs In London song, then uses Sweet Home Alabama to take care of the chorus (and provide a lyric).
He seems to put similar effort into the lyrics. He rhymes "things" with "things"... good effort there and irks me further with the lyric "the moonlight shined upon her hair". I didn't even think "shined" was a word, though an quick internet search confirms it's a recognised alternative to "shone". Oh well.
Anyway, rightly or wrongly, it just sounded to me like the laziest cash cow I'd ever heard on radio. I hated it.

Don't I though? Ah well.I'm totally agreeing with the Nickleback songs (Except Animals).
I just don't get how playing a song 15 times a day is really a good thing. Personally I think that radio stations should limit one song play at least during normal business hours. Some people have to listen to the radio all day at work. After hearing the fourth song for a third time by lunch it gets to be really monotonous. Some radio stations are worse than others. Would something like that be so hard to set up?

Still, at least you can get the beeb on iplayer - I think radio 3 would probably suit an "adult" shop
