Radio overplays all of the #1s, but that heavy rotation plays a part in the #1s making a lasting impression on the general public, so I have mixed feelings about it. I hear Fancy every 5 mins right now, just like I heard Happy every 2 mins like three months ago. But at the same time, that's partly why they're going to be the most remembered songs when people think of music in 2014 (obviously there are other reasons why they will be more remembered than other songs this year as well).

I totally understand that, I mean I loved Stay when it came out but the radio overplayed it for me which kinda ruined the song for me a little bit. I understand that it has a lot to do with business but I would love more versatility on the radio from time to time.

I just heard J.Lo's new album in full
Bitch, I wanted an album full of bops. Instead, she gave me an album full of ballads and mid-tempos. Gurl, ain't nobody checking you out for that

Yeah, I would like it too.
102.7 KIIS-FM has the best song selection.

lol Legend X went on to make TWO other songs smashes after MLJ, especially SS which never would've happened without her.
Poor UGLY has-beens Gaga and Britney. One is angry, depressed, and constantly contemplating suicide while the other is so medicated just so she won't kill herself.
I guess not everyone can be as GLAM as Legend X, not everyone can have actual TALENT like Legend X, not everyone can create iconic TV shows, etc hihi.

Radio here in Europe (or at least here) play even the #1 song 6 times per day tops 
US should implement a law that only allows a song to be played once per 4 hours at most

They're not bad really, just super bland to me and nothing special. Like Rita Ora.

No radio station has a good song selection. They all overplay the same songs way too much.
It boggles my mind that radio is still so big. I guess people listen to it on their way to work? Or at work? Everyone I know has plug ins for their phones in the car so we don't have to deal with that mess, I guess others are still behind.
I think radio AI, and the way Nielsen compiles information, is quite inaccurate too.

Legend X had nothing to do with the song. It smashed after it got promo. Alex and Ciara X factor version of the song even went platinum. The GP just liked that song enough to make it a hit

I'm so glad the biggest stations here don't play disposable pop hits all the time, must be horrible

You get way more joy out of hearing your song on the radio than hearing it on your ipod.

When they played La differenza tra me e te on Q-music
I think that was the only time I've ever heard any of my faves on the radio

And for a lot of people it's (sadly) the only way they ever discover new music/artists.
