I think you're sort of right. It's not simply because they're popular, it's because the popularity means they get inescapable radio play. Over time you resent it more and more.

    I don't know if he went worldwide or if he's just a British thing, but Lewis Capaldi is the worst offender for this in my mind. There was about 3 months where Somebody You Loved wasn't being played by at least 2 stations at a time. 2 or 3 times an hour, every hour, every station, every day.

    It was a great song the first 5 times. The next 5000 not so much.
