I banned Taylor Swift today
...OK not ALL Taylor Swift... although I'd like to... but I did ban her new song "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together." Nashville goes a little more pop every single day and this one is so bubble gum teeny sweet blinding sugar high bullshitfest that I couldn't see adding it to my stations playlist and keeping any semblance of respect from actual country fans. So naturally I did what any decent Program Director would do... tested it in front of a live listening audience.

The results were staggaring. 98% "don't ever play it again," 2% "I like it." The nays win. I posted on the stations facebook today that we appreciate your opinion more than anything and we're listening... Taylors new song will "never ever" be played on this station again. Our facebook has blown up today with responses... positive to about the same percentage and we've gained 52 new "friends" simply for NOT playing a song LOL.

The best thing is that our in market competitor posted that "FTR we are playing Taylors new song because we believe in letting our listeners decide for themselves" and half the posts on their page are in support of us or just generally trashing Taylor and the song. Thanks for the added attention and support cross-town dumbasses.

I realize not many of you probably care about this but it's made my day. It's the first time in 22 years in radio that I've banned a song. I should do it more often.

*shit thread*
**DJF sucks**
***and not a shit was given***

tl:dr Taylor Swift blows... and not in the good way

Its a little too poppish of a song IMO for country radio.

You're just sore because she dumped Taylor Lautner for good. Who would have guessed you were Team Jacob.

nicely played.

I hope Taylor puts out a song I'm not embarrassed to play and our listeners like next. I'm not holding my breath.

In response to this banning, Taylor Swift was quoted as saying "I can't really comment on this, I'm too busy having a new mansion made out of bricks of cash."

I wouldn't expect or even hope for her to care about one little midwestern radio station not playing one of her songs. But if she wants to talk about it she's welcome to come in to the studio.

edit... actually it's 2 stations. I program 2 in Illinois.

I think you should focus group all of your songs on ChiefsPlanet. We'll tell you what to ban and what to put into heavy rotation.

In general though, I'm a fan. She's talented, genuine, humble, etc. She's a good role model for my daughters. She's self-made and not some record label creation, and I appreciate that she writes her own music.

All those qualities are pretty rare these days, so she gets a pass in my book.
She is a good role model, but talented she is not. Other than marketing herself.

At this time we aren't banning her as an artist... just this song. Her early stuff like "Teardrops On My Guitar," "Our Song," and "Tim McGraw" are bona-fide hits that appeal to the country audience.

I would buy that if she didn't write her own stuff. But she does, and earned $35 million last year (tops in the US) on the back of those songs she wrote.
