yesterday i was shopping with my sister and in the first shop while trying on clothes, Big chair started, and in the next shop, while trying other clothes, Closer started.
Very very nice!

Oh, I was in Poundland in Meadowhall last week and my mum pointed out that Closer was on as it's one of their songs that she actually likes. Yes, I shop in Poundland, I ought to at least add that my mum dragged me in there so I don't look as bad?

Side was on in Belks earlier this summer. I ran to find the nearest speaker and was singing along and embarrassing my fellow shoppers :P

My local Morrisons used to play WDIAROM and the first time i heard it in there it occured to me to wonder what must it be like to be Fran and be in a shop and hear your own voice coming back at you from the tannoy!
Embarrassing moment on the same subject I was in an airport bookshop last month and could hear Closer playing and stood still and put my head on one side thinking what good taste the shop had, when I suddenly realised it was my new mobile which I had forgotten about.

I was in H&M when Big Chair started playing at the radio! My sister and I were like "I know this bass thing..." and it was the bass at the beginning of Big Chair! And I started singing along while looking at clothes (and didn't buy anything)

I was at a grocery store and I thought I heard Closer playing. I realized it wasn't Closer, but I pretended it was anyway and sang it in my head.

Me and my dad were out for a pizza when Safe came on. Normally over here, if they play any Travis at all, they play the more "known" ones like WDIAROM, Side, Sing or Closer. Safe is amongst my personale favorites though, and this certainly made my day :)

EVERY time I go a "REWE" supermarket they play Travis songs in the background (occasionally Snow Patrol, but most of the time Travis)

and today in a small shop I heard My Eyes :)

today. 1pm-ish. Old Navy. Limeridge Mall. Hamilton, Ontario Canada.
Selfish Jean.
I was just on my way out of the store, but stayed and sang to myself instead.
