Lost in Music: Morrison's Revisited

An extended stay in Austria resulted in a longer than normal necessity 'big shop' at Blackpool's Squires Gate Morrison's. 

A mercifully quiet supermarket, arguably so much so as to question what on earth was occurring, allowed me the luxury to do what we all go for to said emporia, whilst also being able to take significant note of the background muzak occasionally framed between tracks as the speciously titled Morrison's Radio / FM (frequency modulation not facilities management, with neither being correct).

The playlist was undeniably eclectic, and aside from the strains of Annie Lennox accompanied by Dave Stewart, extremely unpredictable. Some gems were unearthed amongst others that best remained buried. I will allow you the luxury to differentiate between the two extremes for yourself...

Sonique - It Feels So Good


Marc Cohn - Walking in Memphis


Take That  - Greatest Day


The Cranberries - Linger


The Black Eyed Peas - I Gotta Feeling (I really hate typing "gotta")


Nelly Furtado - I'm Like A Bird


Maroon 5 - Sugar


Tom Grennan - Found What I've Been Looking For


Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)


McFly - Obviously


Pixie Lott - Turn It Up

Elle King - Ex's and Oh's


A generous 6.5 /10 for Morrison's latest efforts. 

This is an occasional series on 'in house' piped music within some of the UK's largest stores, and has in effect replaced the original purpose and subject manner of this blog, the latter which has now been exhausted.
