Today's radio is just killing songs. They play all of them so many times per day, it renders nearly every song annoying even if they weren't annoying to begin with. I mean, aren't there some songs we haven't already heard a thousand times? It won't kill us to play some other songs in the artists back catalog.
Relatable, my local classic rock station seems to only know about maybe only 2-300 different songs, one time they played Yes' "Owner of a lonely Heart" twice within an hour

....the broadcast group I work for-their Classic Rock format is much the same.....no depth to the catalogs at all....that's why some of the SiriusXM channels are better with a deeper dive into songs that don't get constant airplay....having said that, any length of time listening will still show a marked lack of rotation on the tunes.....

Yeah, I don't think I've ever heard a Doors song on my local station, any artist they do play will just play their most popular songs,

...ours does include the Jim and the boys, but only about 4 of the "hits".....
The only Beatles songs mine play are from "Abbey Road" and it's just "come together" with the occasional "Octopus's Garden" nothing from "The Beatles (White Album)" which I think is the best album in rock'n'roll history. The only ZZ Top songs they play are "Sharp Dressed Man" and "Legs"

I swear I'm not trying to be a pretentious purist or anything stupid like that, but I honestly can't stand most of today's big artists. I actively hate Adele, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Train, Maroon 5, Racoon and all the other whiny buggers I don't know the names of. Other than that, I am highly allergic to U2, The Corrs and many Dutch artists such as Guus Meeuwis, Marco Borsato, Nick & Simon, Jan(tje) Smit, Volumia and many others... Some places are playing this radio station called 100% NL, and it's TORTURE.
