Well, that could be looked at from both ways. It could be good, that OLP is getting listeners from all different types of people, even the people with their noses in the air..or bad, why the hell would OLP have to be playing in a store like that? :freak:

Hey guys,

I was getting my hair cut in Oshawa Ontario, and apparently one of the girls that did my hair works at Walmart. She said that Gravity is like the CD of the year there and they play it all the time. i was a little surprised given that MUZAK usually dominates places like that.

Everyone in Pickering doesn't really like OLP......I am trying to convice them otherwise by months of brainwashing.....I think its starting to work. Plus I get to sing them for Halloween......I sound pretty much like Raine apparently...........that was kind of a shock to hear. This digression is over.

I love when I go into Sunrise and they're playing OLP. I stand there for as long as I can without looking weird.

Speaking of Sunrise, for some reason, Spiritual Machines was on their top 20 albums, which is usually full of new and/or pop stuff. It was number 9. :wtf:

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

It was playing at HMV here, but of course it should be... If i worked in a mall everyone would die of overexposure to OLP music if that was possible.

I heard "Innocent" for the first time today on the Muzak at work (Genovese). It was sad at first but then refreshing :nod:

It sounds weird played all by itself. Everyone at work is like so the band you like sings this song. "I hate this song" :cry:
