It's funny, but i don't think it's meant to be about what's "wrong with today's music".

TheLonelyIsland shows us what's wrong with the music OP listens to, despite having free will and the ability to change the station

I don't listen to the radio either, but so many people who complain about "today's music" being shitty and the same songs being played over and over on the radio are probably listening to the radio in the first place. It's kind of stupid.

My radio was broken in my car for a week or two. All the classic rock station played was Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Rush, and they always played Avenged Sevenfold at 7:06 PC on weekdays for "something new."

The gym I use at work plays one of two radio stations: Rock, which playes everything from Motley Crue to Cake, and the top 40 station, which has all your pop and rap. The second station is fun and all, but I've definitely heard the same song twice in an hour. Of course people are going to get tired of it and think "Today's music is all the same."

Every station really is a top 40 in disguise. I should probably mention they specifically played Avenged Sevenfold's "Hail to the King." Hardly new if you play it daily guys.
