You Shook Me All Night Long is puke inducing. Back in Black is very overplayed too.

Not really. I haven't heard them that often on the radio, and they flat out rock, so I think it would take a lot to overplay them.

Good question. I absolutely love AC/DC but I'll turn the station if one of their more popular songs is on the radio (You shook me, Thunderstruck, Hell's Bells, Highway to Hell, etc) but if it's something rare (like the kick ass live version of Heat Seeker) I'll crank it up.

Yeah, what radio? I don't think AC/DC can be overplayed. Then again, I rotate CDs often.

I love AC/DC. Can't wait til they tour again. They are coming out with a new album by the end of this year.
Yes, they do overplay shook me all night long and back in black, and probably have another drink on me.
But I think Nirvana is way way way too overplayed. I can't stand Nirvana and am tired of listening to them. Kurt died years ago and they act like the guy is still touring by the amount they play his music.
As far as AC/DC, I wished they played Who made Who, or Big Gun, and Thunderstruck more.
I am convinced that Nirvana, Maroon 5, and Nickelback sold their souls to the devil to get that much airplay. Ridiculous.

Depends on the station you listen to. If I listen to ZZO too long, they tend to over play them. But most of the time I have sirius on, rarely local stations

I dont hear them much at all? What stations?
If I hear another Maroon 5 song, Im going to blow up the radio station.
Highway to Hell...I used to sync my CD playing when I went to college so that when I got onto 91 in CT, that the song would play.
Ive got the biggest balls of them all!

I am telling you all, if you listen to the radio frequently enough, you can definitely hear Nickleback on various channels about every 5 mins. No joke, I was taking a long ride to PA and went through Sussex Country and the whole ride up to Sussex they literally had Nickleback on every few rock stations either playing simultaneiusly or one song right after another.
I am so sick of Nirvana too. I know I said it before, but I am tired of hearing kurt's voice which sounds like either a guy with a soar throat or a boy going through puberty.
NIRVANA, NICKLEBACK, and MAROON 5. These have to be the most overplayed groups on the radio. And that damn country singer girl from American Idol. I think I am going to switch back to listening to AM again with the oldies.
This was a good thread to start.
