It's like ANNOYING stuck on replay, replay-ay-ay-ay

Overplayed songs become tad bit annoying, do you not think so? Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Rihanna, Sean Kingston and many other artists' songs have been playing on repeat every single morning on radio stations. I cannot help myself but flip to the next channel, searching for something even more decent to listen to. Where has the value of music gone? Why are people so obsessed with these songs? I have yet to know. Comes with a catchy beat, perhaps. As for me, I listen to different genres, almost everything except for metal, rap and RnB songs. Oldies, rock, pop, jazz, blues, etc, yes please. I was brought up listening to 90s music (siblings' influences).

Season 7 winner of American Idol, DAVID RONALD COOK.

Cook was born in Houston, Texas on the 20th of December 1982 and raised in Blue Springs, Missouri. He performed musicals in high school and was an avid baseball player.

Most of Cook's song lyrics from his debut album "David Cook" were written by him and dedicated to his late brother, Adam. Before auditioning for American Idol back in 2008, David was in a band called Axium. One of the songs by the band is "Just In Case." Give it a go. Initially, David did not intend to try out for the show but only to support his younger brother, Andrew. Eventually, he auditioned and made it to Hollywood.

He also did a solo album entitled "Analog Heart." I find the lyrics of all of his songs growing deep with emotions. Artists who take the initiative and time to sit down and compose their own songs catch more of my attention. What is so special about David Cook? He can sing a soft slow ballad and at the same time, rock out with his guitar. Some of his musical influences include Our Lady Peace, Pearl Jam, Chris Cornell, Switchfoot, Collective Soul, Alice in Chains and Big Wreck.

Basically, to me, music represents us as individuals. Music is everywhere, even a simple sound. Music connects people from across the globe. We may be a million miles apart, but it is the music which links us together. There are times where you do not feel good; having music that suits the mood cheers us up a little. It is a stint of hope that you are not alone. For example, when I am alone (I am shy to sing in front of crowds), I sing just to let loose.

Sorry to say, but the music produced nowadays have no meaning and are straight-out annoying. New music, they are fresh but not anymore once they become overplayed. I prefer an old song being played over and over again. Truth be told, finding a right song for that particular moment is quite frustrating - where you do not know how you feel or what do you want to feel.

Goo Goo Dolls' Iris. This song is the soundtrack for the movie City of Angels. The lyric of the song is about Nicolas Cage's character who is an angel that falls in love with a human lady.

"I'd give up forever to touch you..." - Because he is an angel, he cannot touch her; his hands would go right through her but both would not feel a thing.

Song lyrics tell a story; as cliche as it sounds, music DOES feed the soul.
