Re: song requests that make you cringe
Thu, November 17, 2005 - 3:55 PM"i know you're an artist but..."
but WHAT? if i'm an artist, then why are you asking?
that's like saying "i know you're the rolling stones, but can you play some beatles songs?"
i don't mind requests (within reason) but don't start them off like that... -

Fri, November 18, 2005 - 2:39 AM<macarena>
i always liked that song, but prolly cuz i didn't have to hear it all the time (it was still "cute" to me.)
<supersonic>
don't usually have requests for this one, i play it in electro/old skool sets. don't forget "push it." :D
<tequila>
wes montgomery does a cool-ass version of this...
<i will survive>
chante moore made this song worth listening to again for me. does it as a ballad--but the original is IRRITATING. (won't even play it for women i'm sleeping with.)

Re: song requests that make you cringe

Re: song requests that make you cringe
Fri, November 18, 2005 - 5:02 AMOkay, here's my favorite:
"Hey, play that song. You know...it goes bah dop daaa zap za bang bang zoom. Man...you played it a little bit ago! Play that shit again."

Re: song requests that make you cringe
Fri, November 18, 2005 - 7:12 AM"Do you have any Europop?"
I thought the dude was asking me for a soda. I told him he might want to check at the bar, and I got a very confused look in return.
I do, however, get a kick out of facetiously yelling "PLAY FREE BIRD!!!" at DJs that I know on occasion. -

Re: song requests that make you cringe
Fri, November 18, 2005 - 4:56 PMmorally, that's just wrong.
nelly is from the wrong side of the mason-dixon line.
if it were a ludacris, bubba sparxxx or maybe even a ying-yang twinz song mashed-up with skynyrd, that would be okay.
i'm just sayin'... -

Re: song requests that make you cringe
Sat, November 19, 2005 - 8:11 AM'tis true.
i was just tryin' to keep it 'southern' though.
1/2 of my family comes from trinidad, & i am a 1st gen amurrikan raised in arkansas, so...hopefully that's explanation enough for now. it's enough to confuse hank hill. -

This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.
Re: song requests that make you cringe
Sat, November 19, 2005 - 2:06 PMnaturally the reason *i* know about misery, er, missouri is my moms is from there (the boot--southern.)
hey you got any propane? -
-
Re: song requests that make you cringe
Sat, November 19, 2005 - 9:43 PMthe propane truck hasn't been by in weeks.
moms' is from the bootheel? that is a confusing place: could be arkansan, tennesseean, missourrian or even kentuckian... or a really bad mix of all of 'em.
and why does the well water smell like sulphur?
(i know way too much about rural arkansas, missouri & tennessee...i should shut up now. before the house gets blown off it's foundation from the chemicals...'cause you know we all got labs in the kitchen of the 'dubble-wide'...and i ain't talkin' 'bout no puppies, neither.)

Re: song requests that make you cringe
Sat, November 19, 2005 - 5:15 PMI like requests. My general response is to put my headphones back on, make a show of turning up the volume to them, smiling as huge as possible and nodding my head in agreement. This way, you don't even have to listen. And who can get mad when you're smiling that large?
Favorite request ever is still Prtishead after I played them 3 tracks earlier. -

Re: song requests that make you cringe
Mon, November 21, 2005 - 7:15 AMOne time a crackhead came into the bar and walked straight up to me with a CD in hand. "I've been cooped up in my apartment for 3 days writing, and I just need to hear some music really loud. Can you play this CD please?"
It was Meatloaf.
I said I don't think so, and he proceeded to lean in like he was going to give me attitude, and he brushed the tonearm with his dirty jacket and skipped the record that was playing. I gave him the finger and a mean look. Peeps were pissed and he got a clue that he should get the fuck outta there. -

Re: song requests that make you cringe
Fri, February 2, 2007 - 6:30 AMAbout 4 years ago, I was spinning at a club in Cleveland called Abbasso, and I had some guy come up to me, whip out a wad of cash and asked me to play Barbara Strisand (sp?). I had a record box full of Progressive House, Tech House and Techno. At that moment I was spinning PH (I think). I told him: "This is all I play, go away and quit bothering me. No matter how much money you try to push in my face, I will not play anything you request." So finally after he left me alone, I started spinning the hardest techno records I had on me...hahahahahahaha!!!!! :) :P -

"Can you play something MORE Russian?" (while a song with Russian lyrics was playing)
"Can you play some salsa? This music sucks! It's so ..... HOUSE!!!" (exact quote from an NYE party, repeated twice but an obnoxious German girl - did I mention the flyer said "Spinning the best of European electro-house?") -

Re: song requests that make you cringe
Fri, February 2, 2007 - 9:32 AMI was spinning at the afterparty for the folks working at the Northern California Renaissance Fair a few months back and this young goth girl came up to me and asked if I could play some Nine Inch Nails. Not that bad, really, but I was mixing funky downtempo at the time. Then, when I told her that I had no NIN, she asked me if I had any Rammstein. I answered no and she looked really annoyed for a second, but then she said, "Well, you don't have the Macarena do you? I love that song." -
