I think at some point we've got to agree there's a problem.  Bill is recycling old playlists or is just not freshening up the content like he used to.  I really liked RP back in the day, but lately I've found myself more and more tuning into other stations like Dynamic Range Radio.

 
Agreed

Wow, you must be a really heavy listener or just unlucky to be bothered by a song that is being played once every 7 days or so. Or perhaps you have too much time on your hands. This is so much less repetition than your average FM station gets away with.

I listen to RP pretty much 9 to 5 Monday to Friday, plus some weekend listening and I still find this song is fresh enough to make me want to stop what I am doing, kick back and listen.

Every now and again I wander away from RP, on a suck it and see exercise, when folks such as you offer up alternative stations. Whilst they seem fresh I have always found that I drift back to RP. I haven't tried DRR so I'll give them a go.

 Who cares? I just want to listen to good music, and Bill has been on a roll today. I would think you have bigger problems, but what do i know. Thanks for the music RP.

I'm assuming the referenced comment was meant sarcastically, but if not: 'listener abuse' - the hyperbole has finally achieved privileged status! Try changing the station, hit the PSD button, or just sit in a dark, quiet room until you realize you're not a special flower, just a walking sack of tripe like the rest of us. Oh, and have a nice day!

Wow! You're totally right, this song is amazing now.  Don't know how I didn't see it before.  Both musically and lyrically this is now the best song I've ever heard!  Must have been that time I spent in a dark quiet room.  Anyways thanks for the tip buddy and I hope this message finds you well.

No need for hallucination - Fever Ray is the solo venture of Karin Dreijer, half of the Knife. The other is Olof Dreijer (aka DJ Coolof), her brother. New material coming soon, I hear! {#Mrgreen}

This song was only played 7 times in the last 30 days?  I must have been listening to RP for each of the 7 plays.  I don't mind the song and think it is interesting to a point.  But something about it starts to sound too droning and repetitive.  Or maybe it just gets played too often for me.  How about something different from Fever Ray to see what we think of their other music?
 
..."something different from fever ray" is something different than THIS....bought the album and was disappointed from the rest.....
