10 Most Overplayed Songs on the Radio, Winter 2010

10 Most Overplayed Songs on the Radio, Winter 2010

So, I was driving around the city one day, without listening to my CDs or Pandora. What I noticed was that radio stations played the same songs over and over again... which is not really a surprise. However, what really got me, was that they played these top songs almost every time I got in the car and turned on the radio. So I decided to keep track of how many times I'd hear those lovely songs during the day. And I also decided to come up with this list of the Most Overplayed Songs currently on the radio, or the 10 Most Overplayed Songs on the Radio, Winter 2010.

10) Phoenix - 1901
It goes: Fold it, Fold it, Fold it. For some reason I thought it was "Fallin, Fallin, Fallin"
I actually still like this song. However, it's getting on the cusp of "having to change the station because I've heard it too much" syndrome.

9) Drake, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Eminem - Forever
It goes: I want this sh*t forever mine, ever mine, ever mine.... with some auto-tune on that.
Even though this song came out last year, I've been hearing this song a whole lot recently.

8) Black Eyed Peas - Boom Boom Pow
It goes: I'm so 3008, you're so 2000 and late.
This is the first of three Black Eyed Peas songs on here, just so you know.

7) David Guetta featuring Akon - Sexy Bitch
It goes: Damn girl, Damn, you a sexy bitch! --- gotta love lyrics like this.
It's a very beaty and mainstream dance-floor song. However, there are a lot of other songs out there like this that could be played too. Although, I'd take this over any LMFAO song.

6) Black Eyed Peas - I Gotta Feeling
It goes: I gotta feeling, that tonight's gonna be a good, good night.
I'm sure you've heard this song by now, it's actually the same producer as number seven.

5) Jay-Z featuring Alicia Keys - Empire State of Mind
It goes: New York, these streets will make you feel brand new.
The first week this song was released on the radio last year, it was already overplayed. I liked it, but rapid over-exposure quickly burdened my ears. It doesn't help that it is a genre crossover that can gain a bigger audience.

4) Iyaz - Replay
It goes: Shorty... something something.
I don't think I've actually heard the rest of the song.

3) Black Eyed Peas - Meet Me Halfway
It goes: Can you meet me halfway, right at the borderline?
All I know, for having three songs on this list, the Black Eyed Peas must be making a whole lotta money.

2) Lady Gaga - Bad Romance
It goes: I want your love, and I want your revenge, you and me could write a bad romance.
A catchy song, that managed to catch it self near the top of the overplayed list. I liked this song in the beginning. Now, it's getting to that point that I can't hear it anymore. It's fun, it's poppy, it is what it is.

1) Ke$ha - Tik Tok
It goes: Don't stop, make it pop, DJ blown my speakers up
Oh gawd, it's catchy. And seriously, this song is played almost every single time I step into the car. I heard it on the radio probably about 12 times that day I decided to make this list. My ears are drowned.
