You have to ask why? Simple. "Lemmings like the water".

I'm with Graham. My family and I no longer listen to commercial radio. Haven't for about 5 or 6 years. We don't miss it either. It's just too predictable. Payola has been and is king. There's nothing you can do about it. What you can do for yourself is to move on and connect with your audience. Write good songs, play them, enjoy it, and hopefully others will too. Sell some CDs.

Yea, that song is pretty bad lyrically. But hey, who knows how to polish a turd and sell it as the ultimate confection on a stick better? Can you blame them? Money, money, money......we love it!
