Yeah, and I'd rather hear the original by The Five Man Electrical Band.

 PL> Five man electrical band was much better (IMO)

Yeup.

I wasn't talking about remakes, I was talking about some of the new stuff
out there that literally sucks. It seems today's trend is to play it as
loud as they can, thinking that maybe if they blow away your eardrums, you
won't notice that the music sucks.

Or it's crap (note that the c in crap is silent)

What we have here and in San Diego are the creeps who play their boom
boxes so loud, you can't help but hear it and be annoyed. (a guy four
houses down polishes his car in the driveway and his stereo is so loud, I
can't hear my own radio in the garage without turning up the volume so
that it's rattling the speakers)

Make that plural, songs.

 PL> Okay... got that off my chest... feel better now... shotgun loaded.
 PL> Next radio I hear it on?  BOOM! GONE! BOOM AGAIN! (Just to make

And here I thought I was the only one with that thought in mind. :o)

 PL> Reloading anyway.... jeeeeeest in case ;>

:o)
