      Nirvana Slander?! Not on my watch!

      Haha, jokes aside, I do know a lotta reasons why people would not like Nirvana, either lyrics for some, the ‘loud noises’ effect in some, and generally probably overplayed songs like SLTS or HSB

      I, personally love everything (like, I’m into some Montage of Heck Deep Cuts type of fan, the exclusive live songs listener fan) they did, but hey I was almost surprised that Nirvana was mentioned anyway.

      I understand a complete flash in the pan nothing ass band like Oasis, but I am somewhat shocked to see anyone throw shade at Nirvana, especially when some of their stuff was really great.

      How can you hate Jimmy Buffett? Dude seemed like a genuinely nice guy. I can understand not liking his music, but “fuck that guy, he sucked” seems harsh for someone as chill and selfless as he was in life.

      God help me, the only joke I laughed at in Club Dread was a Jimmy Buffet reference. The resort has a washed-up musician who insists Jimmy stole all his material. As he storms off, he mutters “Son of a son of a bitch.”

      I’m not saying you’re wrong, because we all get to have opinions, but I can’t disagree with you hard enough. The “goes on forever” part is glorious jamming. I love that song.

      The constant asking for it was boring, I agree.

      I like it, but I gradually quit listening to it after seeing Skynyrd use the Confederate loser flag in a concert video

      Lynyrd Skynyrd used a Confederate flag from the 1970s until the 2010s, and several criticisms have been raised against them because of this.[51][52] While promoting the album on CNN on September 9, 2012, members of the band talked about its discontinued use of Confederate imagery.[53] In September 2012, the band briefly did not display the Confederate flag, which had for years been a part of their stage show, because they did not want to be associated with racists that adopted the flag. However, after protests from fans, they reversed this decision, citing it as part of their Southern American heritage and states’ rights symbolism.[54] The band would later cease use of the Confederate flag starting with their 2019 tour.

      Ah to have no principles

    Whatever the title of “This girl is on fire” is.

    Pretty sure it’s supposed to be empowering or something but all I hear is ThIs guRl iZ oN FiiIiiRrrrrrRrreee!!! two hundred times in a row.

    Like okay she’s on fire. Got it. Get damn fire extinguisher or something and SHUT UP.

    Honorary shout out to the 80℅ of songs on the radio thst are about relationships. You know there’s more topics that exist? Does it ALWAYS have to be about relationships?

    And Christmas songs on eternal repeat starting before Halloween. Thanks, radio. I hate Christmas songs now. Not because they suck, but because you suck gor playing them over and over FOR HALF THE YEAR.

      I shit you not, that entire song is just Alicia Keys finding different ways to say “this girl is on fire”. She’s just a girl and she’s aflame, etc. There’s nothing of substance to be found.

      ‘Sometimes I listen to radio and go what is this crap?, and every time, the answer is the Red Hot Chili Peppers.’

      Disagree, though. I’ve heard that song in concert.

      If it’s just Anthony Davis that raises your hackles, John Frusciante is the guitarist who keeps leaving and returning, and Shadows Collide With People is why they keep letting him back in. It was co-written by the voices in his head.

    Last Christmas. Hate it so much.

    Also Independence Day by Martina McBride, but my reason for hating it is silly.

    Honestly the song, about a woman escaping domestic violence, is fine. But there is a line that frustrates me.

    The chorus goes like this:

    “Let freedom ring
    Let the white doves sing
    Let the whole world know that today is a day of reckoning
    Let the weak be strong
    Let the right be wrong
    Roll the stone away, let the guilty pay,
    It’s Independence Day!”

    This got used by Rush Limbaugh for his awful radio show. And that penultimate line infuriates me, because it illustrates how evangelicals do not understand their own religion, which has led to them embracing vengeance, power, and fascism. (Not that the song led them to that, it’s a symptom.)

    The stone rolling away, referring to Jesus’s resurrection, is very clearly described in the Bible as the sign that sins are forgiven. That’s the whole point of the religion, that everyone is a sinner and in need of a savior. The stone rolling away means the guilty don’t pay.

    But evangelicals have twisted their religion so much they think the important part is about punishing those who don’t follow their rules. It’s about worshipping power. So the stone rolling away means Jesus is about to kick some guilty ass or some nonsense.

    Additionally, because irony is dead, I wouldn’t be surprised at all to find domestic abusers belting that refrain at the top of their lungs, not knowing what the song is about, because of Rush fucking Limbaugh.

      Last Christmas

      Oh god, yes. The worst thing: I don’t actually hate it. But it means it’s fucking christmas season again, I’ll be hearing it everywhere, I can not only hum but sing the lyrics hours after hearing it and it’s so old that it will likely never die.

    That’s Hilarious by Charlie Puth

    Not a song that would typically fall in my lap; when I heard it in passing, it engaged me beyond reason.
