C (How utterly forgettable this, and she, have become.)Mariah Carey - Shake It Off:
FGreen Day - Wake Me Up When September Ends:
B-Black Eyed Peas - My Humps:
F- (There's no explanation for this other than they must be trying to be this bad.)Nickelback - Photograph:
B- (This is the type of song that would be more enjoyable if I was still fed up with everything. But this does not belong on KPRI.)Weezer - Beverly Hills:
B+Fall Out Boy - Sugar, We're Going Down:
BBow Wow (featuring Ciara) - Like You:
F[/color]
Lifehouse - You And Me:

A-Frankie J - More Than Words: nh/dr
Pussycat Dolls - Don't Cha:

Pussycat Dolls - Stickwitu: nh/dwt
Ashley Simpson - Boyfriend:
D (The DJ on Channel 93.3 was talking about how she recovered so beautifully from the SNL mishap. )
Black Eyed Peas - Don't Lie: C- (I'll give them that this is the most tolerable from them in what seems like decades, but Star 94 should not be playing this either.)
Mariah Carey - Don't Forget About Us: F (One more red-letter and here's looking at the next Destiny's Child).Ryan Cabrera - Shine On:
B- (for now. I heard it for the first time this morning on AT40, right after 'Mr. Brightside'... Lol.)Sean Paul - We Be Burning (Legalize It): n/a

Gavin Degraw - Follow Through:
B (But this should not be here again.)Gwen Stefani - Luxurious: nh/dwt
(My No Doubt-obsessed buddy said there's a total of one tolerable song on LoveAngelMusicBaby besides "Cool" and this isn't it)David Banner - Play: nh/dr
(who?)Keith Urban - You'll Think Of Me:
B (Of course this is here now. It's the natural next step after spending 8 months on Hot AC.)All-American Rejects - Dirty Little Secret:
BT-Pain - I'm Sprung: nh

B for now, but it could go either waySimple Plan - Crazy: nh/dwt
Switchfoot - Stars:

BStaind - Right Here: nh/dwt
Shinedown - Save Me: nh/dr
Killers - All These Things That I've Done:
D (I'm gritting my teeth and limiting the effects of Island's gross immorality and inconsiderateness to this song, it being the least tolerable on the album to begin with.)OH MY GOD. THIS REPORT CARD HAS BEEN INTERRUPTED BECAUSE I'M LISTENING TO THE TRIPLE A STATION AND "LET'S GET IT STARTED" JUST CAME ON. SMH.[/color]
System Of A Down - Question!:
B-Franz Ferdinand - Do You Want To?:
C+ (I like the title but I'm just not feelin' it.)Foo Fighters - Best Of You:
B+ (The Foo Fighters really should be getting pop hits with most of their songs, especially now with the top 10 being 40% crossovers.) (Tell that to Hits 106, who played most of their songs.)Disturbed - Stricken: nh/dr
Death Cab For Cutie - Soul Meets Body:
B (For some reason this isn't as cool now that 91X, FM 94.9, and KPRI play this all the time, and I'm also mad that this is his song that took off and not "Such Great Heights")Trapt - Stand Up:

Morningwood - Nth Degree:
B+ (Although, I could see this being the type of song that would get 70x on pop stations and that would not be a good thing.)Fray - Over My Head (Cable Car):
A-Living Things - Bom Bom Bom:
B (Though for some reason FM 94.9 is playing "Bombs Below," which is worse)Blink 182 - Not Now: nh/dr

A. C.
Rob Thomas - Lonely No More:
C I heard a slower mix of this on KYXY so I would have said that could explain it except all the other times I heard it on other AC stations they played the regular version. I don't know either.Michael Buble - Home:
C+Kelly Clarkson - Breakaway:
BMariah Carey - We Belong Together:
C-Eagles - No More Cloudy Days:
C- (What a ridiculously overrated band that's just riding off their success from unnecessary singles in the first place.)Anna Nalick - Breathe (2AM):

DKimberley Locke - I Could:
C+Carrie Underwood - Inside Your Heaven:
D-Goo Goo Dolls - Give A Little Bit:
C+ (what's this still doing here.)Hootie And The Blowfish - One Love:
B- (I actually think that by this point they could have a hit again if they lost the name. "Hootie" and "Blowfish" are ridiculous words and the novelty wore off 1/3 of the way through their first hit.)Jon Secada - Window To My Heart: nh
but interested and LOL @ him still tryingEric Clapton - Say What You Will: nh and judging by what I've heard from his latest album dwt

3 Doors Down - Here By Me:
C (When I'm Gone. Let Me Go. Here By Me. Umm, what else do we have. Here Without You? Live For Today? Gah, do they know how to name their songs anything other than three of the most overused words in the English language? )
