Well, the weather sucks. As we prepare for another winter snow storm (reminder: it's officially Spring) we heard from listener Loran with an appropriate theme suggestion. Loran wrote, "I'm no longer in the Twin Cities, but heard about the weather forecast. It makes me wonder if there are enough radio appropriate songs which feature the word "suck". It might help to purge the animosity for the sucky weather."

So, purge away. What songs that feature the word "suck" in either the title or lyrics should we play for the 9:30 Coffee Break?

Do you need a Coffee Break? We've got a great one coming up April 25th with Cactus Blossoms and goodies from The Freehouse. Let us know why you deserve a Coffee Break: CoffeeBreak@TheCurrent.org
