Muzak songs - odd
I was on hold with a doctor's office today and heard some good Muzak style remakes of songs.
The only two I'll note are these:
Wind Cries Mary- I thought that was really strange that they'd do this song. It was kind of smooth jazz remake, it was alright but a little too mellow.
Don't Pull Your Love- I normally don't like this song, but this version was awesome. It was kind of a Zydeco version, really upbeat with the accordian playing lead to sub for vocals, but had some solos too. I wonder where I can find that.
Muzak is some strange stuff. I never heard it, but a friend of mine swears he once heard a version of Symphony of Destruction.

It's a crime!!
But they get away with it...
Today's most outrageous and infamous song is tomorrow's grocery store background track!
Polish off the edges that made it interesting in the first place...TA-DA!!...it's MUZAK!!  | |

| I hope you told your doctor about this, it could be serious.  | |

| I didn't need to, a couple guys in white coats jumped after I hung up and took me directly to the nuthouse. It was so convenient and thoughtful, no need for me to go through all that effort.

Have you heard the Muzak version of Bohemian Rhapsody?
You just wouldn't believe it... | |

Oh man Cadd, speaking of Bohemian Rhapsody you've got to hear this.
I don't know who did it, but a couple of years ago on this local jazz station two women did an acapella version of it, they did the guitar solos with their voice too. It was pretty damn funny imo. I wish I knew who they were, I don't think it was a recorded song I think they were live somewhere. If I find it I'll have to let everyone know. That something you just have to hear, it's so messed up!
