Guitar Center recently conducted a survey to determine the most overplayed songs in their stores. The top 10 list includes Metallica's "Master of Puppets," Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child O' Mine," and Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit." Surprisingly, John Mayer's "Slow Dancing in a Burning Room" made the list alongside classic rock staples like Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water."
