Swindon Music

First off for me has to be the embarrassingly faux-emotional stick o' shite 'Red' by Daniel Merriwanker. The fact that it has been said that this bloke has a "great voice" is evidence enough that there are still people out there who have never heard of Marvin Gaye.

Anything by that horrendous fuckstick Lily Allen. I absolutley cannot bear her. I especailly hate that "It's not Fair" song (ok, good video). It really, really makes me angry. She isn't "sassy", she doesn't "tell it like it is". She writes s**t fucking 6th form lyrics, that can only be appreciated by retards who think she genuinely has something to say.

Dizzee Rascal... Why? "Bonkers" it's diabolical and I must have heard it a zillion times. The follow up "Holiday"... even worse. Has he been taking lyric writing lessons from Lilly Allen? It sounds like some wank he's knocked together in 5 minutes for the 12 year olds that hang around outside the shop by my house, listening to their shitty music on their shitty phones, whilst trying to persuade anyone that walks by to go in and get them ten Lamberts. It's not just the idiots (that don't realise they are idiots and that this is crap) it the fact that there are enough of them to validate the existence of this horseshit.

Why do I know every single word of that JLS song? Every word, I s**t you not. how did that get into my brain?

New Arctic Monkeys single reminds me of a Half Man Half Buicuit Song about Trumpton.

I have no problem with samples either, but whats this current trend for stealing what amounts to pretty much a whole song? I don't know who it's by, but the bitch who has basically re-released "Echo Beach" with different words and an incredibly s**t tune, should be shot in the head.

"Get Your Passport and your bikini, you need a holiday so come and see me"

That's poetry Mr Rascal, with the exception of "Dance Wiv Me" which was a birrova tune (featured the equally talentless Calvin Harris, somehow they both combined to make a decent record) everything he's done has been utter guff

Bonkers by Dizzee Rascal is the most annoying thing I have heard this year,utter pish

Everything by the Ting Tings

I like some of the Ting Ting singles

Hahaa! Not sure I agree with that but whatever.

The worst has to be that Battlefield track that has either been on Radio 1's A-list for about 2 months. Either that or it's just on every single bloody time I tune in. Annoys the s**t out of me. Literally.
Also Greenday's new stuff was bland in a very in-your-face kind of way, got no love for that.

Any Katy Perry song. They all sound the same to me. Pokerface as well. Grr

Huh, like the chain gang even have a radio in the cotton fields... Right?

There are only seven basic notes / chords in the musical structure, so there was always going to be a finite amount of chord progressions and only so much unique sounds people could add to these, after which it just becomes re-inventing the wheel so to speak!



It's about understanding the position of Radio 1 now - they try to give a cross section of contemporary music in the 21st Century. With the birth of digital radio and internet streamed music there are many genre specific stations, the only way Radio 1 could maintain it's position was by expanding it's pick'n'mix approach of the most commercial acts.

I'm sure there's other people thinking "why do they play so much rock/indie/dance/Chris Moyles"

There is one song that stands head and shoulders above all else when it comes to the most horrendous load of absolute steaming s**t this year.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Jeremih.

Well done on looking exactly like a younger, slimmer Kanye West though.

Calvin Harris is a c**t

Oh and that Asher Roth song, white guys shouldn't say homie, yo.

Nah

Calvin Harris is a TALENTLESS c**t

Let's get it right

I get that, I've spent years wrinting different songs using the same chords. One day I may learn a fith chord, but untill I've finished ploughing the 4 chord furrow, why change?

I don't mean ripped off a song as in it sounds like the original. I mean they have (rather than sample a section) taken, from the original recording, the whole track and just added new words & melody. In that rip-off of Echo Bech, it's not a song that sounds a bit like Echo Beach, they've taken the whole track, minus the vocals and it's a load of poo.
