Is this song driving anyone else insane? It's 14 minutes long and it's played 3 times today. (i.redd.it)

Theres one song that my entire store hates but doesn’t know the name of it. We all call it the “La la la la la song.” If you know you know

Loving You by Minnie Riperton. Don't ask why I know

can’t get you out of my head by kylie minogue?
Ghirahim016 5 points 11m ago
I don’t even want to look up the answer 😂

Okay but 100 volume? How can you hear anything but the music?
BookDragon1996 35 points 11m ago
I can’t speak for this person but at my store we have a separate volume nob for this
Mea-fae_Owl73 3 points 11m ago
At my store all the speakers are in the lobby so we can’t hear the music at the bar that well so they crank it up to 100. I can’t hear customers or orders over the headset when I’m warming or front register when it’s that loud. We have compromised with 90

I was first Introduced to starbucks Playlist at my second store. Imagine having the freedom to play high-school musical(my old ssv Emily loved it) the entire day and que songs in-between!! I move to my current location and I'm thinking "this person's Playlist is weird" only to find out its not one of our partners Playlist and you absolutely can't queue any of your favorite songs🙃

“Fool” by Perfume Genius is still my favorite worst song at Starbucks 😂. But there’s others.

Ooh I love Queen by PG. Such a cool song.

I’ve heard some of his other songs play in my store. Some are really good! He’s talented but def not all his songs are palatable

Lots of songs hit different when they’re playing at Starbucks and you’re there for a whole shift and hear it eight times while trying to work.

Ella Fitzgerald is great but omg I don’t want to hear her Jingle Bells ten times a day while dealing with peak holiday rushes.
Square_Caterpillar_9 3 points 11m ago
Omg we literally started taking count on how many times this song played today…. 6… I heard this 20 min song 6 times in one shift😭
Pale_Flower_1262 2 points 11m ago
starbucks need to allow us to have spotify but they can play only clean versions. tired of listening to the same shit everyday. half of the stuff on the starbucks playlists put me to sleep
Ok-Welder6185 2 points 11m ago
Anytime I recognize that this song is playing, we immediately change the station. TOO BAD we can't skip the song
ddebdesdemonaa 2 points 11m ago
I can barely ever hear the music at my store lol
midnightsonder 2 points 11m ago
YES GOD YES. my shift today was miserable. im always on bar so i don’t have time to constantly check the ipad but it seems like it always defaults back to whatever playlist this song is on because it felt like the majority of my 8.5 hour shift today had this song as a soundtrack. KILL ME

I hear that one daily and I lost my mind every time it came on!!!
Boundtoloveyou 1 points 11m ago
Okay, but I low-key liked that one. I liked to pretend I was a barist-elf in Santas workshop.
RubySapphireSage 2 points 11m ago
My store also keeps the music in 100 😂, my manager loves it bass booming
chaddybabydaddy28 1 points 11m ago
These things make me thank god my district manager encourages us playing our own clean music
Pale_Flower_1262 1 points 11m ago

Buttafly_360 1 points 11m ago

I'm a Gillian Welch stan and I'll not stand around for anyone to trash our glorious folk and country saint.

If you’re chillin yes, if you’re opening and about to get a rush of tired nurses and waking people about to commute to work- id choose something a bit more lively✨
