Muzak madness
We’ve all heard muzak - that ersatz “music” played in waiting rooms, grocery stores, and elevators. It seems as though musical artists like Celine Dion, Michael Bolton, and Bryan Adams were born to record songs that are destined for muzak. But what about those artists who weren’t?
What song (or the music of a specific artist) would you be horribly amused by hearing done into muzak?
I think I’d wind up falling down in a fit of hysterical giggles if I heard Lita Ford or Joan Jett as muzak. Especially I Hate Myself For Loving You by Joan Jett. I’m already giggling, just thinking about it.

So many to choose from, but I’m going to go with VAST’s “I’m Dying.” Yeah, that would be trippy.

I forget who does it, but “What the world needs now is another folk singer”

I would probably laugh (and quite likely vomit) at plenty of songs “muzaked.” I mean, just picture Godsmack’s “Whatever,” or ACDC’s “Big Balls” (Especially in some snobby store with beige decor, piped muzak of “I’ve got big balls, yes I’ve got big balls, they’re such big balls, they’re dirty big balls…” would get me snickering), or NWA’s “Straight Outta Compton”…

I’m at the point where I can’t find muzac amusing no matter whose music is being ruined — I find it intrusive and MADDENING.
