I mean, that PARTICULAR number has had a rather undue and disproportionate ubiquity for about as long as I can remember.

So much so that (as I once said of some Del Amitri song - I'm certainly not looking it up - that you'd hear in a rom com, at the grocery store, on hold with the bank, etc.), I would wager that it has been (assuredly) more than two decades since any person listened to it in some deliberate manner/with actual intent. Non-consensual rock.

The singer reminds me of Phil...

Nostalgia is a very forgiving monarch.
I guess I sort of love it.

I'm GLAD it's in an over-saturated insurance commercial.
I'll bet that pays way better than streaming!

infect others with the virus. one day they will resign themselves to it as well.

And, indeed, I heard it at the grocery store today.
