Does anybody else feel the anger in this song? Doesn't the kid also feel betrayed by these DJ gods? He turns the station on and says he heard another voice say he was "just too late and just no good." And there is a whole angry tone to the music as well. It makes me think that the DJs were trashing his generation, and I think young person feels betrayed by his DJ heroes.
@gnovi Not knowing the backstory, I interpreted that line as indicating that at this crucial moment this station, too, was taken over by the corporate machines and was now churning out generic music -- with no thought of listeners like the narrator.
