Almost everything on the TV sucks. But from inside my cell sometimes I’ll catch a clip of a good song. I’m not picky. When this happens, it’s my favorite thing the TV ever does. Lately it is Dancing Queen. A few months ago, Going Up the Country by Canned Heat. Before that, a clip from “Apache” - da DA da duh da DAH da da…these are all from commercials.
