I got the idea for this topic after a conversation I had with al, @slowpoke1993 and longaotian on the Popedia Discord chat about a week ago. Do you ever take notice of the songs that are playing when you enter into a store or a shopping centre? If so, what are some that you can remember?
When I walked into the KFC at Orange earlier today, "In Too Deep" by Sum 41 was being played through the speakers in the store. A strange choice of song really, but I wasn't complaining. With that said though, that isn't one of the strangest song choices I have heard over the years: * When I walked into the Oporto (a fast-food outlet) in South Nowra last year, "God Save The Queen" by the Sex Pistols was played through the loud speakers. Now that is absolutely bizarre! * Korn's "Freak on a Leash" played in an EB Games store last year. * Hearing System of a Down's "Lonely Day" in the Shellharbour Best 'N Less a couple of years ago.

Heard Here Without You by Three Doors Down in a Reject Shop store a couple of months ago. Was pleased about that.

No. On the rare occasions I do go, I just want to get out as quickly as possible.

I've got to be honest, I have never really been a fan of "Here Without You", but I would still prefer to hear that over the rubbish, Top-40 songs that a lot of retail stores play. It's an interesting song choice anyway! Speaking of the Reject Shop, I heard "These Days" by Powderfinger when I went into the Reject Shop store in Shellharbour for Easter shopping about a month ago.

Always amuses me when places play straight up disco. This was on in Trader Joe's tonight:

Heard Under The Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers over the speakers in my local shopping centre today.
It was being played in the actual centre, not in a particular store. It’s not really one of those songs you hear in shopping centres too often.

Buffalo Wild Wings in my city literally has the most iconic playlist. It'll be metal one day, then the next they're playing Big Time Rush and Aly & AJ. Like its just so amazing I wanna tip whoever the playlist maker is.
