You Chase Me Out...

A bit of fluff at the end of a long week...

As i was doing my usual mid-journey-back-home-from-faraway-nie retreat from the heat by chilling a bit in the nearby Cold Storage, i was remarking to myself how it has quite a good choice of music as far as businesses go - i forget exactly what songs were being played but at least i remember that 1) they were original (i.e. not some half-baked pirated remake version) and 2) they were in English.

So of course it had to be that today, just after making that observation, that on my way back i popped in there again, and what should be playing but Josh Groban and You Raise Me Up. Now, i just so happen to think that this is just about as tacky as songs get, but never mind, at least hearing it once in a while is worth the odd chuckle here and there.

But then as time went by, i realized that, horror of horrors, all that was playing was a neverending loop of You Raise Me Up - once the song ended, it would start again. Goodness. There's only so much chuckle and snigger-worthy moments that i can entertain... Well needless to say i didn't last there much longer.

I'm now somewhat wary to step in there again, especially once cny hits. Time to bring out the earplugs...
