It's a Little Bit Funny, This Feeling Inside...

Last week I popped into our local supermarket, and was amused to hear that for some reason, Elton John's "Your Song" was stuck on a repetitive loop. Actually, the joke soon wore thin, and after 15 minutes, I had to abandon my shopping as it was already beginning to grate. So imagine my shock, on returning to the supermarket today, to find that the PA system was still blaring out Mr John's schmaltzy hit. That's a whole week! And it's a 24-hour supermarket! I wasn't sure what to do - call the police? I mean, the poor staff; surely this classifies as 'cruel and unusual punishment' in the extreme.
