So what's the deal with this?
0 40 SARAH MCLACHLAN Beautiful Girl 63 0 63 0 0 45 SARAH MCLACHLAN Song For My Father 56 0 56 0
Did some Alt station decide it was "Let's Play the Crap out of Sarah McLachlan" week?

3 9 CURRENT SWELL Rollin' 18 39 -21 Poor Current Swell, no one should have to admit to having lost 21 spins to 8 Sarah McLachlan songs that jumped ahead of it.

The plot thickens: finance.yahoo.com/news/siriusxm-canada-launches-sarah-mclachlan-110000476.htmlBut still: who would want this? And why would you take away two great stations for it? Also, there's stations much more guilty of being pop imposters. Check CKUL's playlist.

That looks like a cool station. I wouldn't even bother with m,y iPod if I had that kind of station to listen to. And no, Q92.7 in Sudbury lacks variety. The classic rock songs it plays are a handful of popular AC/DC, Pink Floyd, Boston, and Led Zeppelin songs over and over. I'm pretty sure "Hells Bells", "Highway To Hell", "You Shook Me All Night Long", "Thunderstruck", and "TNT" all get played at least twice a day each.

Oh, and all stations need to stop playing "Old Train", "The Lion", and "Seven Seas Blues". I mean, when a band just has 4 different remixes of one song, they might as well just stick to the best one. "Sweet Mountain River" should be the only song of theirs to get any airplay.

I don't get it.

I initially thought the Arkells follow-up to "Come To Light", "Never Thought That This Would Happen" was dull, but it's grown on me quite a bit.

I'm looking forward to some new stuff from these guys. I've never listened to either of their 2 albums, but I charted both "The House That Heaven Built" (#15) and "The Nights Of Wine And Roses" (#34) so I enjoyed them both quite a bit. Their sound is really cool, and as a matter of fact if I get the time I'll listen to their most recent album.

Yeah, according to Pipa's records, "The House That Heaven Built" got to #11 on Canada-Alt, and the follow-up "The Nights Of Wine And Roses" got to #13. They're both very good. And BTW, I've been listening to the album since my last post about listening to it if I get the time It's pretty good.

And you keep making me regret not keeping these charts anymore...

Any of you guys know Devin? He's from Canada, so that's the only reason I'm asking. I can't stop listening to his new album.

I heard art he as huge up there, because normally whenever I mention Devin to Canadians, they automatically know I'm talking about HevyDevy.

Well, these guys released the right next single. Now we can say goodbye to the hot "Blow Up the Outside World" ripoff for good.

So I just found out that the song I've had tagged as "Ageless Beauty" by Stars for the past 5 years isn't "Ageless Beauty" at all. It's "Reunion".
But it's a far better song than "Ageless Beauty" so I ain't even mad.
