Trust me Agie, you should
be GLAD you don't get that kind of saturation. It's not just Creed, it's
EVERY song that enters the Billboard Top 40. Thankfully, ROCK only has
crossover appeal on pop stations and NOT vice versa (you will NEVER hear Britney
Spears on X-103, "Indy's New Rock Alternatvie").
True story. When I
still lived in Chicago, I rode to work with a woman who ALWAYS listened to B-96,
"Chicago's Dance Beat". One particular morning, we left my place on the
southwest side to be to work on the FAR north side, IN A NEAR BLIZZARD
(and for those who don't know, Chicago traffic SUCKS ASS even in GOOD
weather!). To make a long story short(er), it ended up taking almost FIVE
HOURS to make what was normally just over an hour drive. In that
five hours, we heard 6 different songs NO LESS than 3 times each, and they
were always in the same order (Shaggy, Destiny's Child, Ja Rules, Dr. Dre (the
ONLY one I even SORTA liked), BSB, and Nelly). And that was a pretty
much EVERY DAY playlist for at least a month, with various others thrown in for
"variety". It STILL nauseates me to think of it.

Wish I heard that
!!!!
We don't have here any
rock radio stations, and telling the truth there is one radio station, that
has played Creed and it is a public Polish Radio Channel "3", the rest of
radio stations play crap like Spears, Aguilera, Ricky Martin (to name
just a few of the best acts actually!!!),etc. because it's very popular
and most of people love it. They don't want to play rock music that
much, that sucks... Oh, and did I tell you that Creed isn't that
well-known over here? Anyway, I guess the only person who understands what I'm
talking about is Ross :) Anyone who has heard about ATC or Vengaboys knows
what I'm talking about,lol!!!!
