Last time I made a conscious decision to listen to the radio it was Classical FM. I don't think Sam Smith or Lorde fit the bill there.
Heard a bit of Lorde though, sounded like miserable dogshit best listened to in a garage slowly filling with carbon monoxide.

That would be Lordi, a much superior musical experience

I know, but when I started seeing the name Lorde suddenly popping up a lot in OT I got a bit confused because I honestly thought they were talking about Lordi until I looked things up.
National radio is universally shite.
I tried to listen to radio 1 the other day and they had a section where teenagers call in and complain about their 1st world problems, and its not done in a comedic way. These kids are complaining about their dads not letting them go out until they do their homework, I don't want to listen to angsty teen problems in the morning.
This was all followed by a David Baguetta song and I promptly turned it off.

The hot new things will all pass. I think I've lived through enough musical trends to realise that most of it is just shallow crap which nobody will remember or care about (apart from NOW best of the teenies!).
It might just be a comfort blanket thing but I'm listening to loads of Sam Cooke , Roy Orbison , Stax type things as well as Dylan and Hendrix and the stuff on the radio just sounds like vocaloid noise to me.

to be fair, sheeran must be a good songwriter to come up with his latest single, the ludicrous work of fiction that is some girl wanting to sleep with him.
'lordi of the rings' needs to be a thing. maybe a cover band.
I'm with you Sploat. I know it makes me a miserable bastard but I'd rather just stick with Joan Baez and Nina Simone than listen to any of the vaguely melodic talking calculator bollocks that the missus digs.
Fucking 'Dashboard Confessional'. What bollocks. Whatever happened to sensible names like 'Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band'?
You can be forgiven then. It's your job.
You, on the other hand, need to learn your place. Stop trying to be down with the kids, lest you never come back up!

How old are you people?
Rudimental's a band - if you're thinking of Not Giving In or Feel the Love, that's John Newman:
Sam Smith is this dude:
Jesus, I didn't realise how much they look the same. I think it's the shit haircuts.
I have shit taste in music, but I don't care, I enjoy listening to pop. Budapest by George Ezra is pretty cool.

Old and wise enough to know what is shit and what is not 😄

That section called "Sweat The Small Stuff"? Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's meant to be an ironic segment, just a hunch.
So I work in IT yet have put up two work benches and some shelves today.
I do not do DIY in my own home so I am now scared that my handy work is gonna kill someone.
*shrug* I'm pretty sure if someone is injured I will get partly blamed for it.
Also how broken was PSN last night for voice chat and friend requests again.....
Ended up playing Destiny on xbox.

I think they're more for some specific teenage boys tbh.
Old enough to know better than to listen to bullshit kids music.
Though there are still some of us who don't like radiohead so clearly we've not weeded out all the thick fuckknuckles yet

:-( I thought the slightly-chubby potato-faced look was "in" right now, and that I'd actually been walking around looking really trendy this whole time and not noticing.
I mean if gay teenagers have been looking at me and thinking I'm hot, that's...good, I guess? I suppose I wasn't going to do anything anyway if it was teenage girls so qu'est-ce que le difference?

I like and sometimes love them! They're better than the hotel I stayed in last week. It had no heating. Coldstay.
I wish I could even make it to Coldstay, I got stuck behind a police car doing 10mph, Slowpatrol.
Eesh. If that was me I'd want to run.

I listened to the single yesterday, it's very poppy innit. I do like some Jerry though.
It's not that it's poppy, I liked the last MCR album, but the first track on the album is awful.
I have skipped it and will listen to the rest and see if it is any good.
Will report back.

I liked it as a whole, but some tracks are hit n miss. Give it another go
