First thing that comes to mind is, the tiny audio clips from Test Track. I mean, really, awesome ride. I actually like the queue music, too. BUT, I don't need to hear a very random 10-second blip from the car audio. It makes NO SENSE. WHY do people request that? Really, if you do, give me a reason. I want to hear it. I would actually prefer the full ride than these blips.
More will come later. But I'm tired now.

some people use those "little blips" to round out their requests/use up the last few points they have. It's like requesting the "Monorail Doors" track. not really good for anything but wasting a couple of points.

The one track I dread seeing in the queue is Disneyland - Adventureland - indiana jones - jungle sounds. It is four minutes of crickets and frogs. I could understand if you live at the South Pole and there is no life. Why would someone want to listen to four minutes of crickets?

Now I have a little more time for input....
5 things I dread the most hearing
5. "Microclips"
Clips under 15 seconds, unless they're real classics (Please Stand Clear of the Doors). The aforementioned Test Track blips included. They just wreck the flow of the station, but are too short to merit changing stations.
4. The American Adventure
Don't shoot just yet. I love the show. The show is awesome. As is the audio. I was excited as heck to hear it again, the first time it showed up on this channel. But. Whenever my family went to Orlando for a trip, we always saw it. Once or twice. And that was it for the year. After the second time hearing it in a month, I switched to BGM every time it came up. Why? Easy. I listen at work. Too much of that clip puts me to sleep. The fact that I feel that Two Brothers is one of the saddest songs in the entire Disney library doesn't help much, either. Someone requesting Golden Dreams doesn't bother me at all, love that song. But listening to the entire half-hour show gets on my nerves and wrecks my concentration, particularly when I just get back to work after a week off, and it was already one of the most recent things I'd heard on here.
3. Jammin' Jungle Parade
Ick. Never saw this parade when the family was there. The music is probably why. I don't understand the point of each character and their chants. It just sounds ugly, definitely a reason to switch to BGM for awhile.
2. Boo to You Parade
Now, I saw the real thing once or twice. Years ago, so it's probably changed a bit since then. The parade is pretty good, the part with the gravediggers and the shovels from the Haunted Mansion was dang awesome (dragging the shovels on the road making SPARKS everywhere). But, the music, especially by itself, is generally not good. Scary-ish music I like. But this sounds like whoever composed it didn't even TRY. The only decent part is the Villain's Ball. It's just low quality, dropped even further by the occasional outburst of "Boo to You" and "Happy Halloween" throughout the ENTIRE THING, as the original tune was the worst part, yet it had to be peppered throughout. And EVERY TIME it comes up, it's because someone requested the entire thing. Sigh.
And finally, (I'm going to get hurt for this....)
1. Captain EO
OK, Michael Jackson is kinda OK for music. His older stuff is generally better. Beat It, Thriller, and whatever song that was from Free Willy are all good. Plus, I'm a Sonic the Hedgehog fan, and there's a whole backstory there (I'll only share it if you want it). BUT, I don't care for either of the songs in this show, and the audio and acting are both ridiculous. I only find it moderately tolerable. Why is this on top, then, if I don't outright hate it? Because it shows up SO DANG OFTEN. I mean really. All the 3D shows that Disney has ever done? I know nothing about Magic Journeys (heck, I looked up EO on YouTube just to understand it, should try MJ next) but have seen the other shows. For some reason, out of the six that I'm aware of, Honey, Philharmagic, and MuppetVision are the better ones, yet of those three, I've only heard Philharmagic on the stream so far. However, I've heard Magic Journeys once or twice, Tough To Be a Bug twice or thrice, and EO more times than I've counted. From the audio, I honestly regard EO to be the worst of the group (though, admittedly, worst in a group like that doesn't say much) yet it shows up easily 4 or 5 times as often as any of the others. The fact that it was at both parks doesn't help, either; unlike the other clips in this list, this is very likely to show up twice a week, or even twice in ONE DAY. I just don't understand why everyone likes it so much. *goes to request MuppetVision tracks now*

I am not a fan of the Tower of Terror music, a little goes a really long way with me, sorry. I short 3 min track of it I can handle but anything longer than that I cringe, and go to another stream.

When the weather is hot outside, I can't really get into any songs that have to do with Christmas. Don't get me wrong - I absolutely love Christmas, and I absolutely love Disney - but not when the weather is so beautiful. Living in a place that doesn't get warm weather year round, listening to Christmas music before October just doesn't seem quite right... And sometimes, October is pushing it. It's nice to enjoy Halloween and Thanksgiving, too. Other than that, I'd say the Sci-Fi Theater isn't one of my favorites.

I agree with that track, along with the radio show one too, I mean I have never been on the ride and if I was I might like it but the radio on is so long and boring imho, but hey I request some things that other people might not like,which I am fond of the small slips to use up the last couple of points, so "Que Sera, Sera"agingerbugg wrote:The one track I dread seeing in the queue is Disneyland - Adventureland - indiana jones - jungle sounds.

I think the ones I hate the most are the live tracks that have waaaay too much background noise. I like some of the live tracks, but I would rather hear the track without kids screaming and people talking so loud that I can barely hear the ride/show itself.

I delete those from my personal collection, unless it is an attraction that I can't find any nonlive recordings.spodie wrote:I think the ones I hate the most are the live tracks that have waaaay too much background noise.
