I give up on Triple J. I spent my formative years listening to it, but over time the station has deteriorated and dedicated itself to hip hop and Klaxons-esque one hit wonders. My feeling of loyalty to you, Triple J, has been replaced with the resounding fear of having to listen to Hilltop Hoods or Bliss 'n' Eso ( Read more... )

ugh triple j is so craptacular now.. it was all downhill after Adam and Wil left.
I only ever listen to the radio to wake me up in the mornings though and I'm used to the triple j format.

And now Wil is on Triple M. Sometimes it makes me want to cry, hahah. The only good thing is the breakfast show on Triple J. Although I might be biased, as I have had a long standing crush on The Doctor since I first started listening to Frenzal, haha.

I feel the same way about Triple J. I don't hate Aussie hip hop but they are kind of going overboard with it. They did the same thing around '03 when Hilltop Hoods' super successful album came out; they were just playing hip hop all the time. It is independent music or whatev, and deserves radio play, but some it is really mediocre.

There's one good hip hop-ish song that they play, though I can't remember the name... it's about music festivals. That one isn't bad.

I don't know if I was just naive and young in my teens, but it felt like Triple J just played whatever they thought was good. But now they just seem to constantly be hopping on the next bandwagon and trying to copy UK radio. It's really pathetic.

Also, I fear that the hip hop song you're talking about is from the new Bliss 'n' Eso album, considering they played the bejeesus out of it recently.

The only reason I listen to Triple J these days is to listen to Robbie, Marieke and The Doctor when I'm half awake on my way to Uni. Otherwise I'm pretty much sick to death of their music, more often then not I turn to Jess and say "fucking hell, is this song annoying the SHIT out of you too?"

Unfortunately, Brisbane doesn't have many other options. Sad, sad, sad.

Also, HE GOT IT 'CAUSE HE DID IT WITH A LADY.

I have a giant crush on The Doctor.

And it's unfortunate that FBi is a Sydney station only, it's fucking awesome.

By the way, I RAP WITH MY BABY IN THE COCAINE DEN.

Duuuuude, I've had a crush on The Doctor forever. I remember when it was at its peak when they performed... I think it was You Are Not My Friend? On stage at some award show (possibly The Aria's?) all dressed as Nurses and just... god. I wanted to do him... badly haha.

Oh and I RAP ALL DAY WITH MY BABY AND I'LL DO IT AGAIN.

OH MY GOD Lindsay and his dress phase! I totally forgot about that... possibly 12 month period where he always wore a dress on stage. Oh Kate, I can't believe out of all the people we fan girl over, it's the weedy little hyper one from a punk band we both agree on, hahahaha.

I forgot to say, DON'T SAY MAYBE, HE'S GOT A BABY. *Does the arse-slapping dance moves*
