Surprisingly or not so luckily, we can hear quite a few songs pretty good in our store. really talented Songwriting has been going downhill for several decades, especially since the '50s. Like the "skilled songwriter" hit a big flat "BLANK" and decided to repeat the same line several times as they couldn't think of anything else to write. And if I can understand the lyrics, Especially those 80s songs that have a line repeated over and over and over until I feel like pulling my hair out. Well, that covers over half the songs they play on the In-Store Audio network. Anyone else have that one?īakerchick25 said: "And any other song that you can't fully make out the words to." I forgot to mention "Walking on broken glass" by Annie Lennox which I am quite partial to. I think the only song from your list they ever play at my store is "work from home" which is quite catchy :P. I'm surprised there is so much variety between locations really considering it is all just "In store audio network". Well, you can tell, I am a little partial to good ole rock and 1980s pop here.Ībsolutely no good 80's songs at my store. One day, they all played within three hours of each other and it was just depressing. Without You - Clay Aiken, there was also a version by Mariah Carey and occasionally the original by Harry Nilsson would play. The Curly Shuffle - Jump and the Saddle Band Does anyone know what I am talking about? Surely it is not just me who has heard these songs. The worst being "What Is Wrong," which I can tell the central Europeans had only so much knowledge of English and decided to have a half decent extended synthesizer solo. The songs were "Midnight Radio", "Send A Letter", "What Is Wrong My Little Friend, Sharleena?", "Little White Lies", a cover of Badfinger's "Baby Blue" (1972), and the best one was "For Seven Years With Blood Like Ice." The latter could be an actual 1980s song, has the Depeche Mode style synths and the lyrics are the most coherent of the bunch. The quality of the cassette transfer was the icing on the cake, dropouts and dull sound abound. I quite enjoyed them, they sounded like they were recorded in central Europe in the mid 1980s. At one point at our Kroger, they aired a lot of "generic" tracks amongst various 1970s and 1980s pop songs.
