i say and stress "REGULARLY" because both stations have a few exceptions, that i tried to list below
MAINSTREAM ARTISTS THAT ARE OKAY: Justin Timberlake Onerepublic The Fray Coldplay Foo Fighters Nirvana...ehhhhhhh Jimmy Eat World Kings of Leon...do yourself a favor and download their older albums. their lyrics weren't, still aren't, that good. but the music is great. Daughtry...meh. way better than the other "rock" bands. but not great. Pink...only because of Funhouse. it is her best single, guess why? Snowpatrol...once again do yourself a favor and download their other stuff besides their cover of "Chasing Cars" Five for Fighting Switchfoot....maaaaybe Green Day...everything BUT "American Idiot"...horrible album No Doubt Jordin Sparks...that battlefield song is the only song i know so maybe she's a no?
i'll be posting another thingy soon listing artists that are pretty much mainstream but...just not here. i dunno arkansas is always behind in music well actually pretty much just unaware of music that isn't played on MTV...(lol music on MTV say whaaaa?...like you know what they play during the hills, silly. well of course there's MTV2 but didn't they just start playing re-runs too?) oh and don't get offended by that list. if you do you seriously need to think.
anywho. i've made this list like over two months randomly adding a band every once in a while so there's plenty more i could post but this will have to do it for the year. i've got another post to make. until then.... then being like a couple hours from now... LATERS
GET SET GO
Die, mother fucker die I want to see you cry And then I'll watch you die
I want to hurt you, torture and desert you Take a hot poker and stick it where the Sun don't shine..then watch you die
Cause I, I'm having a bad day So get out of my way Or you will pay and you'll pay with your Life
I, I'm having a bad day So what else can I say I just wanna kill and be killed just the Same
Cause my day sucks ass
Die, mother fucker die I'll burn out both your eyes And fill the sockets full of lye
I'll carve out your skull and turn into a Bowl that I'll eat cereal with while I Watch the Flinstones And I, I'll do it with a smile
Cause I, I'm having a bad day So get out of my way Or you will pay and you'll pay with your Life I, I'm having a bad day So what else can I say I just want to kill and be killed just the Same Cause my day sucks ass
I don't want to work I don't want to pay bills And I don't want to grow old And I don't want to be poor I don't want to drive in traffic I don't want to deal with dating I don't want to stand in line I don't want to pay any taxes
Die, mother fucker die Why won't you just die? And get out of my life
I want to move to some deserted desert island where I will live up coconuts and everything will be fine all of the time Cause I, I'm having a bad day So get out of my way Of you will pay and you will pay with your life I, I'm having a bad day So what else can I say I just want to kill and be killed just the same
had a dream I can buy my way to heaven
when I awoke, I spent that on a necklace.
i told God I'd be back in a second,
man It's so hard not to act reckless.
to whom much is given much is tested.
get arrested, got some chili, get the message.
i feel the pressure, under more scrutiny,
and What I do? Act more stupidly.
bought More Jewelry, More Louis V, My momma couldn't get through to me.
the drama, people suing me,
i'm on T.V. talking like it's just you and me.
i'm just saying how I feel man,
i ain't one of the Cosby’s I ain’t go to Hill man
i guess the money should've changed him,
i guess I should've forgot where I came From.
La,la,la,la wait till I get my money right
la, la, la, la then you can't tell me nothing right
Excuse Me, is you saying something?
Uh, uh, you can't tell me nothing
(Haha) you can't tell me nothing
Uh, uh, you can't tell me nothing
Let up the suicide doors.
This is my life homey, you decide yours.
I know Jesus died for us,
But I couldn't tell you who decide wars.
So I parallel double parked that motherf***er sideways
Old folks talking bout back in my day
But homey this is my day.
Class started 2 hours ago, oh am I late?
You know I already graduated
And you can live through anything if Magic made it.
They say I talk with so much emphasis,
OOOO They so Sen-Sa-Tive.
Don't ever fix your lips like collagen
Say something were you gone end up apologing.
Let me know if it's a problem man,
Alright man, holla then.
La,la,la,la wait till I get my money right
la, la, la, la then you can't tell me nothing right
Excuse Me, is you saying something?
Uh, uh, you can't tell me nothing
(Haha) you can't tell me nothing
Uh, uh, you can't tell me nothing
Let the champagne splash, let that man get cash,
Let that man get past.
You don't needa stop to get gas,
If he can move through the rumors, he can drive off the fumes cuzz
How he move in a room full of nose?
How he stay faithful in a room full of hoes?
Must be the pharaohs, he in tune with his soul,
So when he buried in a tomb full of gold.
Treasure. What's you pleasure?
Life is a, uh, depending how you dress her.
So if the devil wear Prada,
Adam Eve wear Nada,
I'm in between, but way more fresher.
But way less effort, cause when you try hard,
That's when you die hard.
Ya homies looking like "Why God?"
When they reminisce over you, my God.
