SOS at NBA game

I am watching the Utah Jazz @ Minnesota Timberwolves NBA game, and I suddenly heard a few seconds of SOS played over the Target Center PA system. I was startled. They usually play hip hop or something loud or contemporary at NBA games, not MK/DS.

knopfling, that's is so awesome.  I'm always so thrilled whenever I hear MK/DS songs play anywhere outside of my house.  One time I was in my car at the red light when another car pulled up into the next lane, she was blasting SOS in her car. I rolled down my window, gave her a thump up and said I'm the biggest fan.  That was a wonderful feeling.  Couple other times, I heard DS on the radio at different stores.  Another time, my best friend was at a bar, and she called me right away to let me know that they were palying MFN.

Sweet, I always enjoy hearing DS/MK music in restaurants or stores. It always makes me smile and figure that it's good luck that I'll find some bargain.
But I don't remember hearing it during an NBA game before -- maybe Walk of Life years ago. The Jazz won the game, and they don't win many road games lately, so I guess a few seconds of SOS was good luck for my team.

One time I was having dinner with my girlfriend in a restaurant when they played the FULL Sailing to Philadelphia CD
An other time I was with my girlfriend to the movies/cinema (cloverfield). Before (we were 30 min early) and in the break they played the On Every Street CD!

And the strangest time was: During my driving lessons I expected a call from my school (fortunate or not), immediately (I think 30 secs) after the school told me the good news (yes, i was fortunated) the radio played the very rarely played song 'Tunnel Of Love'. In the Netherlands, TOL is very very rarely played on radio and it's my absolute nr 1 song on earth! (best song ever imo)... So, that was a beautiful and astonishing moment for me What a timing and coincidence

So cool!

I don't know if fortunate is the good word... I finished my school exams succesfully (better? )

Dutchessy, I love TOL also, and can never play it just once. The outtro is one of the finest pieces of music I've ever heard. I've heard either DS or MK in some pretty strange places - in the elevator of the hotel I was staying at in NYC when I went to see him and Emmylou at Radio City (it was Muzak music, not the real thing, but of all pieces, they were playing "Cannibals"), and in the ladie's room of a deli/restaurant near my mom's house (not in the restaurant itself, oddly; two different stations were playing in that place) they were playing one of the songs from KTGC. I was so blown away by the strangeness of it, I don't even remember which one now.
