    Quick question: What do you consider an acceptable number of times to hear "Sunny Came Home" by…read moreShawn Colvin in a week? If your answer is anything higher than "Maybe Once?" then this is the station for you, and I have a couple of followup questions. What's it like to be frozen in a glacier for 14 years, and are you disappointed we don't have flying cars yet? This station is always on in the background at work, and it makes me want to die. Prior to starting this job a month ago, I didn't really have an opinion on Michael Bublé. Now I want to set him on fire. How can a station that plays songs spanning the last half century have such a limited selection? It doesn't make sense! Lately, they've been playing this commercial about how you could win 1,000 free music downloads. The commercial explains that with a 1,000 song library, you could drive all the way across the country and still have songs you haven't listened to yet. Which makes me wonder, how many songs are in Magic's library that I can hear Spandau Ballet every single day? If it's about money, WMJX, give me a call. I don't have a lot, but I'll gladly buy you an iTunes gift card or something if it means I can go a few days without hearing "Tears In Heaven" again.

    The only reason I even give it one star is because I am forced to give it something in order to…read morewrite my review. If I could deduct stars, that would be more fittng. Let me go further to say that if I could deduct one star for every day I heard the same 15 songs played, the star deficit for this radio station would rival the National Debt. "Call Me Maybe", "Stereo Hearts" (sans Gym-Class Heroes), "Every Rose Has its Thorns", "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" (The terrible Michael McDonald version), "Bad Day" and the entire playlist of Adele's "21" album, are just a few of the songs you will hear. Every. Single. Day. Don't get me wrong, I used to love Adele's sound and even downloaded a few of her songs, but after working at my job for a few months, I loathe her (or at least that CD, anyways.) Think of the movie Groundhog Day, now apply those rules to the radio and you get Magic 106.7. At the very least, I can say I get a great dose of comedy everyday when I hear their slogan, "The most music for to make your workday fly by." Thanks to these clowns, my work day goes by slower than a death caused by someone sandpapering you to death starting with your feet.

    LOVE WBOS! I'm…read moredefinitely going to Earthfest on May 26th at the Hatchshell! Seeing Guster and the John Butler Trio for FREE?!? LOVE it! Guster is ALWAYS a great show, just saw them last month at the Opera House, and they played an amazing show and were hilarious. But anyway, WBOS is one of my favs, always playing new music. Rarely play a song to death like some of the other Boston-based stations. There's always a nice variety, which the other stations aren't too keen on either.

    I hate this station. Admittedly, my strong opinion may be influenced by my deep sadness over the…read moreloss of 92.9 WBOS. I loved that station; they actually played quality music that was not in the cheesey 'adult contemporary' genre. I discovered lots of great singer-songwriters through their station like Brandi Carlile, Chantal Kreviazuk, etc. I used to love their Sunday Over-Easy acoustic show, and they had a similar After-Dark program at night where they would play tunes and discuss them intelligently with a local music critic. They also promoted Paula Cole's back-to-the-spotlight concert, and continued to play Sheryl Crow's recent albums even though they didn't garner much attention from Top 40 stations. Can you tell I like female singer-songwriters, by the way?? Anyhow, back to its current programming: I call this station "Nineties- two nine," since they play all 90s alternative rock. It was nostalgic at first, and I enjoyed singing along to some of the older tunes [while simultaneously feeling horrified that I'm so old that the decade of music I grew up listening to now needs its own station.] But they seem to only repeat the hits of the 90s, and really, I ask you this: how much Offspring can one person take? The pre-recorded female radio announcer sounds smug and self-righteous. I want to reach into the radio and slap her face. She recorded really stupid one liners to introduce the commercials like, "Raise your hand if you want to hear more music in just sixty seconds." Asinine! or, "We play great music, and our advertisers pay our electric bill. Good deal!" or some sh*t to that effect. It makes me want to die. So, in conclusion: Hate it. RIP WBOS, and to the awesome artists they used to book at Earthfest. This year it's Cake, Cracker, English Beat, and The Bo-Deans. And if they do the free Copley concerts this summer like WBOS used to, I'm sure it'll be more washed-up 90s acts. Ugh.
