This would explain hearing Born to Run played in the supermarket the other day Trust me, anything can be translated into elevator music. Successfully . . . well, that's open for debate.

As I've said elsewhere the only good thing about much of what passes for music today is that it will never translate into elevator Muzak. Try to picture today's 20-somethings humming along to Busta Rhymes' "Touch It" as senior citizens; sort of like boomers singing a rousing chorus of "Why Don't We Do It in the Road?" LOL. Some things are of their time and place and need to be age appropriate - or fueled by booze. But the great songs are ageless.
