I used to like that song until I went into my local Footlocker store (trainer store for those who don't know) to buy some trainers. Before you say anything, a friend of mine managed one and he can get me a staff discount.
They have a PC linked to the in-store video system. Each month, they get a CD or DVD sent through with a load of videos and adverts on it. The PC is supposed to pick one at random and play it. This PC decided it liked "I can't you out of my head" and played it repeatedly. Unforetunately the staff didn't have access to the PC to correct the problem and were a bit nervous about turning it off. I was in that store for 45 minutes hearing that song over and over.
A similar thing happened in a local Thai Restaurant. One lunch time, everyone from work went for a Thai meal. One of the waiters had put a certain Mel C track on repeat on the CD player. The waiters didn't have time to go and check the CD player (apparently). The track? "Never Be The Same Again"...
