Mariah Carey - All I want for Christmas. You would think they would have something different by now.

You mean the first movement? And even then most people are probably only familiar with the opening. I think the Ode to Joy theme of the 9th is overrated.

Hotel California is the first song that came to mind.

Stab it with your steely knife but you just can't kill the beast.

remember a few years ago there was that song by a band called The Fray, and it was entitled 'How to save a life'

Remember how it hasn't stopped playing since.. and it's ****.

My Nan had died a few days previously and that song brought me to tears on the most lifeless night out I have ever been on.

Thankfully I just went home rather than breaking down in public.

Creep by Radiohead is pretty overplayed. I do enjoy this song but it being constantly played over and over again tends to make it lose it's feel.

^ Yeah, some songs are so banal and repetative that you only have to hear them once and you feel like you`ve heard them a thousand times.
Each time I have to endure Black-Eyed Peas`"I got a feeling", I get to hear the inane line, "Tonight`s gonna be a good night" a coma-inducing twenty-four times. In fact, as the line yields up all it`s subtleties the first time you hear it, the other twenty-three times are pretty redundant.

There is surprising info about this man. You think he only likes Franco and Pepe Kalle but when you find out that he hears other artists, you are shock. Girls are the sexy thing that God created. Important to notice FPK.
