The artists listed in the article are the same ones I have to listen to all day, which is why I thought my whining was relevant. I know there's good music out there and I've got it on my phone. I just didn't have my headphones charged yesterday and hit a wall listening to the same songs.
I don't listen to the radio on my own time. I've just been working with guys who cycle through 3 stations that all play the exact same songs.
- andrewzah 6y agoHave you tried getting better coworkers? /s One possible solution is to see if there are independently-run stations in your area. I live near a university, so there is a student-run station that explicitly is not allowed to play top-charting songs. So I get some good music discovery, and awkward banter from new djs. If you have access to a computer, then you have access to basically any station. soma.fm is pretty good. It definitely is frustrating to see the same songs on the radio over and over, but that's really an issue from iHeartRadio (formerly Clear Channel) owning stations across the country. Boycott iHeartRadio if you can.
- msrenee 6y agoI just don't listen to the radio outside of the news and talk shows. We do have a college station that's pretty good most of the time, but it's not always my kind of music. I don't have access to a computer per se, but I've got one in my pocket. I just didn't have my headphones charged because I'll go through periods where I don't even want to listen to my own music and these bone conduction headphones don't have good enough quality to understand a podcast. These two coworkers, actually, are excellent. I love working with them. Just their music choice for work is horrible. I'm pretty lucky that the only things I have to complain about here are the hours and background music.
