Playlist for Club H-E-B:
Uptown Girl, Billy Joel
How Will I Know, Whitney Houston
Burnin' for You, Blue Oyster Cult
Suddenly, Olivia Newton John
Something equally terrible by Billy Ocean; I was futzing around at the checkout stand and didn't really pay attention.
The Muzak is really loud when there aren't too many people in there. The best part was busting a college girl dancing to Whitney Houston in the bread aisle. She blushed and put her arms very straight at her sides when she saw me.
Once I was shopping at Salvation Army and the theme for The Greatest American Hero came on. Just about every person in the store started singing along and gradually became aware that everyone else was too. Everyone started singing louder, and we all gave it a grand finish. A few people clapped. Then everyone broke eye contact and silently went back to rooting around for cheap corduroys or whatever. It was great.
