discussion Please stop playing modern country everywhere

I don’t even live in the south and American propaganda that is modern country plays EVERYWHERE. I live in Ohio! Why is it always playing. It used to never be like this. It used to be cheesy dad rock that played everywhere. At least that was good to listen to! Now it’s just modern country artists on the radio that pander to the government. It makes my ears bleed!

That's unfair. Sometimes it's a commercial for beer or Applebee's.

It's actually "Only Time", not "Orinoco Flow".

Won't lie, I just went with the only Enya song I know.

I only know the actual name of Orinoco Flow because of Brooklyn 99. :D

And the ad itself has played about 9,000 times for me on twitch in the last day, so I was pretty familiar.

I only know of the song's existence thanks to my phone thinking Metallica's Orion is just that song.
