When I was a deejay, there was nothing worse than hearing a song that does well in testing but sounds like crap on the radio in real-life situations.
Cases in point - "Jane Says" by Jane's Addiction. Good song in a sterile committee, but absolute crap when played in the morning drive, afternoon drive, or anytime in which you need to stay awake. Anything by Loud Lucy or The Toadies. Made me sad to be a deejay. In the country arena, that badadonk song alienates older listeners so quickly, yet the country stations think they can play it all the time. Radio peoples is the stupidests. - me --- In [email protected], "Ellen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Did you read this?
