When retail could still afford in-store music, one of the Muzak companies provided a bunch of rock songs done that way.

The most surprising was enjoying one and realizing it was Seek and Destroy by Metallica.

For fans of "southern" rock...back in the day when rock was regionalized:

Green Grass and High Tides > Free Bird

Building on previous comments:

1. The Eagles got worse the further they went on. The early country-rock stuff was interesting. Not Gram Parsons interesting, but still interesting.
2. Other than Chris Stapleton, modern mainstream country isn't worth saving. Country could be saved if the suits on Music Row and at the CMAs would stop ignoring really gifted songwriters like Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson, and Robbie Fulks.
3. Lucinda Williams has gotten way better with age.
4. The Slayer version of "Got the Time" is better than the Joe Jackson original

Yes, you are correct. My brain is completely malfunctioning today.

Added in edit: Seriously. How did I manage to post twice?

Hey as long as at least one of your posts include a member of the Simpsons, it's all good.

I was on hold waiting for a company wide conference call to begin. The synth string music sounded vaguely familiar, so I Shazamed it. It turned out to be a Muzak version of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit."

True story.
