What kind of station are they?
WFMUish.
But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Did I not already say I don't listen to music on the radio? I listen to public radio, and I used to listen to Hot 97. I don't understand your crazy moon talk!!!

Are you ready to be strong?
I don't listen to music on the radio either. I listen to Howard Stern during the week, TAL on the weekends. That's about it. Otherwise I am totes DIY w/ my playlist and whatnot.

Silence means security silence means approval
WFMUish.
ish, but really not. More "adult alternative" without the mandated playlist.
I listen to public radio
WXPN IS public radio. Ditto KCRW and KEXP (nee KCMU).

OK. Did I not already ask this question? What kind of music do those stations generally play? What does "adult alternative" mean?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I think it means "the least offensive tracks from college radio circa 1989."

Mr. Scola’s wardrobe by Botany 500
I think it means the soundtrack from Garden State.

Up with the sun
Are you people listening to Nellie McKay? She's so kickass.
She's another artist I missed the boat on, I'm afraid -- her CD did nothing for me. I mean, I admire the cleverness of her lyrics, but that doesn't make me want to listen to her.
(I think she's just not noisy enough for me.)
I think it means the soundtrack from Garden State.
Nah, that would be too edgy for them. More like the soundtrack to Singles.
And I think I'm one of the only ones here who listens to music on the radio, because (as I have said before) I have the attention span of a chipmunk and get easily bored by NPR, and am too lazy to make a different mix CD every week.
