Actually that's not the song I was thinking, but it does play. And I definitely laughed at the squash comment.

There's another song that used to always be playing when I was on the cleaning aisle. I can't for the life of me think of the title or the artist. The title I think is a girl's name or has a girl's name in it. The singer sounds like a girl because of the high voice, but it is a male. The song is from many years ago—pretty catchy song, maybe I'll think of it.

The Basia song Cruisin' for a Bruisin' was always playing on the canned vegetable aisle, by the way. Although why you'd be interested in that information I have no idea.

Different songs would play in different aisles? I'm confused!

Well, it just seemed to turn out that way most of the time. I'd guess I'd catch the loop at the same approximate place when I came into the store or something. I remembered the cleaning aisle song. It's Jackie Blue by the Ozark Mountain Daredevils. Pretty good song, actually. Although I have a strong urge to buy Chlorox when I hear it. Now I know how Pavlov's dog felt.

Edit: Original video missing. Here's a another. Good song!

Hahaha!

I really like this one called 1919 Rag performed by Kid Ory's Creole Jazz Band.

In the last half of my teens, when everyone else listened to the local pop station, I listened to the oldies pop station. This song played a lot. Since it's now football season, I keep getting the chorus of this song in my head. I listened to this song for the first time in years, and realized how bad it is, while still being a little fun.

That is a fun one. Only now I think it's stuck in my head, too.

Oops! Sorry!

Have you ever run across Janet Klein? She is a California-based singer who specializes in performing and recording popular songs from the 20's—especially the more catchy, amusing, and spicy ones. Her singing may be an acquired taste, but I like her and have downloaded some of her albums. She has a great acoustic backup band consisting of musicians who specialize in old time performance styles, called the Parlor Boys. Here is one of their live performances. See if you like it.
