Beyonce

A quick rant I need to get off of my chest before I go to bed tonight.  Since I drive to and from Princeton everyday, I've gotten a lot of quality time with my radio.  I have about an hour and a half everyday of solid listening time.  In the morning, I have 10 minutes with the Beatles from 7:10-7:20 on the Classic Rock station, definitely the highlight of my drive.  However, what I'm sure to hear, at least 75 times I might add, is Beyonce (pictured right, giant ass).  It seems like no matter where I turn, Beyonce is blaring through my speakers.  I have 12 presets on my radio, 8 of which have the potential to play Beyonce songs.  Almost every time I scroll through my presets, I'm sure to hear at least one.  "Put a Ring On It (Single Ladies)" is by far the most egregious offender.  This song is played to the point of nauseation, and yet it's still going strong 4 months (or has it been 4 years) after its release.  Since then, we've gotten "If I Was a Boy," which is finally beginning to fade out, "Diva," which is one of the most ridiculous songs I've ever heard, and if I'm not mistaken there's some other song she has on the dial right now as well.  This of course fails to take into account her countless other songs from prior albums that continue to get solid play as well.  I understand that she's really hot and talented, but is it really necessary to play her songs every 5 minutes?

Radio stations of Philadelphia and New York, I beg of you, please get off the Beyonce.  It's enough already.

PS - I need to get XM Satellite Radio...that is, if they aren't bankrupt by the time I get a new car.

Song of the Day - You name it, as long as it's not by Beyonce.
