I used to work at a supermarket as a teenager and remember the annoying selection of songs played continuously on our "Foodtown radio network." Twenty years later, I often hear these same songs in department stores and supermarkets no matter where I shop! They're not even top-20 hits either. Tell me, is there something about "Walking in Memphis" and "Back on the Chain Gang" that makes you want to purchase more Little Debbies? Did some group of psychologists get together and decide that certain songs will get customers to spend more? I swear, if I hear "Here's Where the Story Ends" by the Sundays one more time, I'll scream! We're in a new millenium....let's change the song set!
Thanks!
