That would be a good topic--songs that haunted work places of your youth. In summer of '87, this old man worked full-time in a retail place that was only allowed to be tuned to 106.7 Lite-FM. The first time I heard Los Lobos' "La Bamba", I thought it was a nice upbeat switch from the station's usual slower stuff (James Taylor, Streisand). That didn't last long--they played that song about 3x an hour, every hour, all summer. A bad, bad summer.
