After working there for – oh, I don’t know, forever? – I finally, finally recognized one of the songs that plays over the sound system at work and man, am I pissed.
I’d heard it a gajizillion times before, and was fairly certain it was Kelly Clarkson (turns out it’s Joss Stone. Whatever). But not until I came home yesterday, still singing that damn song, that I realized that the lyrics were familiar…
And oh, holy shit, I was right.
