Totally. It's finally got the better of me. Songs like 'Promiscuos Girl' and 'Tell Me Whyyyyyyy' grate on me so much that whenever Moyles isnt on and I want the radio on, then it's Radio 2. And I'm only 19. That cannae be good!
A few things here.
Firstly people are going to focus more on the tracks that annoy them that Radio 1 play, they naturally wouldn't focus on the ones that they enjoy hearing.
Yeah, obviously I like a lot of the songs that are played on R1, otherwise I wouldnt listen to it. Songs like 'Aint No Other Man', 'Never Be Lonely' and 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin' are great, but over the weeks of listening to Moyles, and some of Mills, JK and Joels, even these songs become irritating due to overplay. Which is why I've decided to lay off the latter DJ's and listen to Chris Evans when I would normally listen to Mills, as whenever he's on, its a song I'm unfamiliar with or an oldy.
Not criticising R1 as its oviously the way it needs to be done from the record companies point of view, but its just gotten the better of me, and is why I've changed my listening habits.
Either way, BBC is happy as adverts get on my tits the most
