Usually I don't notice the music in stores unless it's really bad. Recently, a couple of my usual gas stations have remodeled, and they've added very tinny outdoor speakers with music so loud it makes me feel like screaming.

Every once in a while, I'll perk up and notice the music, usually in a grocery store, because it's really fun stuff that I can sing along with. When music like that is playing, everybody in the store seems to be in a good mood. It seems to me that top 40's pop music from the 1960s works very well.

....and I'd enjoy "I'm Not Lisa."
