I once worked a 12 hour shift at a MarketPro computer show booth where, I shit you not, the booth next to us was selling computer speakers and the guy running it let his child play Around The World on repeat all day.

No other songs

No break

No reprieve

Just almost 12 straight hours of Around The World.

I loved that song, but to this day I can't tolerate hearing it without triggering something akin to PTSD

No argument here. As annoying I found it, kid was still an absolute legend

Oh my friend, if you think that version has not been sent to me many many times since this story happened, you are sorely mistaken.
