Pandora

Songs my Pandora station has played that made me wish I had a “repeat” button: -“I want it that way”

-“Little Lion Man”

-Anything by Third Eye Blind

Things my Pandora station has played that made me wish I had an “obliviate” button:

-Something about an axe by Yngwie Maimsteen (Real. Name. So many questions…)

-18 different versions of Coldplay’s “Clocks” and/or “The Scientist”

-Pretty much every CCM song from 1998 it decides I must like because I like Derek Webb.

-Simple Plan.

Artists/songs my Pandora station somehow has come to the conclusion that I cannot live without:

-Mat Kearney (own none of his albums)

-Coldplay (as evidenced by the aforementioned songs in the “obliviate” category)

-U2 (Okay, I like U2 as much as the next girl but really? Every third song is some obscure non-hit. Where’s the “One?” Where’s the “Elevation?” Get it together, Pandora.)

-Indie folk and/or techno-pop-rock bands from other countries (Just because I gave a thumbs up to The Killers and one song by The Weepies does not mean I want to sit through that nonsense.)

-3 different versions of “Falling Slowly” (Seriously. One by The Frames, one by Glen Hansard, and one by Kris Allen. It was fun the first time, but now I’m regretting ever giving that song a thumbs up…)

Songs my Pandora station occasionally plays that make me think it can see into my past:

-Anything by Story of the Year

-“Flavor of the Week” by American Hi-Fi

-“Just the Girl” by Click 5

-“Drive” by Incubus

-“Hemorrhage (In my Hands)” by Fuel

Needless to say, I have a love/hate relationship with Pandora. Especially since it only gives me 40 hours per month for free. Hope you have a great weekend!
