Music And Prizes That Rock!

When I was in middle school, I was very excited to receive a radio/ CD player for my birthday. I was happy to be able to listen to music in my room while I cleaned, redecorated or just danced and sang along.

Everyday after school, I would turn my radio to AM 1260, which was Radio Disney. I was always hoping my favorite songs would play and would often go on the Radio Disney website and request songs. I also got very excited for the top 30 countdown every Sunday. Radio Disney would play the top 30 most requested songs every week. I remember hoping certain songs would be in the top 30 and enjoyed trying to predict which song would be #1.

Looking back on my Radio Disney days, I realize that some of the songs I listened to all the time really weren’t that great. One song I remember in particular that I liked was “Too Little Too Late” by JoJo. I thought it was the greatest song back then. But now it just sounds like someone on a sugar rush. It’s just too sweet, sugary and girly. It can also get stuck in your head if you listen to it too much. Another one I remember listening to is “SOS” by Rihanna. I used to love it but now it just sounds like something you would see a bunch of cheerleaders dancing to at a high school football game. It also sounds exactly the same throughout and can get very boring after listening to it for a long period of time. Basically it’s one of those songs that seems like it will never end.

What songs did you used to love but now hate?
