Nickelback - Photograph: Very Overplayed

Is there anyone else out there who is sick of hearing Photograph by Nickelback on the radio every 8 minutes? I thought it was catchy the first 30 or 40 times, but now, it's become annoying. I don't want to "Look at this photograph" any more.

I am not exaggerating in the least when I say that at least once per day, I hear this song being played simultaneously on more than one station at a time, and I listen to only six stations, and two of those 90% of the time.

There are reasons why we're hearing this song so much, especially in Canada. First of all, Nickelback is a Canadian band, so in playing them, radio stations can fulfill their Canadian content requirements. Second, this song is doing very well in the charts worldwide, including landing a number 9 spot for two weeks in the China Top 20! I didn't even know they were allowed to play Nickelback in communist countries!

Finally, well, I don't really have a third reason as to why we're hearing Photograph so often, but having three reasons seems to make a stronger argument than just two. The point is, Canadian or not, my "Nickelback box" is full. Let's move on, everybody. I hear Neil Diamond's new album is good.
