Bunch of talentless hacks churning out the same two songs with marginally different lyrics . . . Can you give me some examples?

I think you should quit your job.
You shouldn't put up with that loud electrified music.
Take a stand and drop out!
Join a commune where there is no electricity and only instrument you'll ever hear is an acoustic guitar. You'll have plenty of vegetables to eat and you won't have the Man telling you what to do, forcing that rock n' roll music on you.

One important thing to remember is that it's time to leave the party when you hear a slurred voice yelling "Hey, man, plan some Skynnard, man..."

I agree with you - but its a lost cause.
The teeny boppers who Rocked to Elvis in 1955 are all over 60 now.
People today think the Stones are "Classic".
Good music is gone forever.
Good taste, Jazz, Beethoven -
GONE WITH THE WIND.

Stores program the music for the demographic. I'd say your a demographic of one with that range of music.

Count your blessings. For the next month we're going to hear nothing but Christmas carols.

Thankyou. I guess the southern vernacular escapes some. I've always known that meant having a fight.

Rock is also on the Rush Limbaugh show.

If you don't get it, you just won't get it. It's ok...stick to Guy Lombardo. But I do have a question...what exactly do you do in this store? Is wearing earplugs conducive to doing your job?

Well to each their own I guess. I feel the same as you do whenever I hear Elvis singing "Blue Christmas"....which unfortunately at this time of year is an awful lot.

Heavy decibels are playing on my guitar Thanks! I always wondered what he was singing. I thought it was:
Razzle frazzle dazzle playing on my guitar.
But keep in mind, I was usually drunk and/or stoned any time it was playing. :-)

"Its Sinatra, Metallica, and Miles for me."Now THAT is an eclectic mix, my friend.
Hmmmmm...........Sinatra singing "Enter Sandman".....that would be something to hear.
To: Hound of the Baskervilles
Firstly, I sympathize with your problem. Being forced to listen to music you don't like is rather unpleasant. Been there, done that.
However, as it happens, I like rock music. And I have to tell you that what you refer to as "hard rock" is no such thing--at least, not by today's standards. "The Killers, Lynrd Skynrd, Blondie, Billie Idol, Swiftfoot and ZZ Top" are not "hard" rock--they're at most "pop rock." AC/DC, Motorhead, Judas Priest and early Aerosmith would be canonical examples of "hard rock." Led Zeppelin, Metallica and Slayer would be canonical examples of "heavy metal." And then there's the really "hard" stuff, such as would be found on a Slayer, Obituary, Death, Cathedral or Exodus album. Count yourself lucky that you don't hear any of that stuff in public places!
My suggestion is to get an iPod, load it up with music you like, and listen to that in self defense.

To: durasell
If that is the case, how come the Wal Mart I visited yesterday wasn't playing gangsta rap, mariachi, and Somalian folks songs, ie reflecting its clientele?
In most cases, you are correct. A reason why I don't shop at Foot Locker or eat in Popeye's Chicken. Can't stand the hip hop being played, yo.

swiftfoot? do you mean Switchfoot? You do realize that they are a mainstream Christian band don't you? If you've got a problem with their lyrics, and you also have a problem with the lyrics of those other bands, then you've just wiped out music all together.

I'm with ya! It's all loud, obnoxious garbage! One of the reasons I love spending a day going to antique shops in some old town is because the shops play nice old music from the 30s and 40s (real sweet love songs) or best of all some nice classical music!!!
