It's so interesting things we didn't care or didn't like, it becomes fascinating over time. Maybe it's just nostalgia.(even though I didn't grow up here we had a similar music in department store in Japan as well)

When I was a kid, I used to be annoyed by my dad's smell after work, mix of cigarette and his smelly feet that is similar to rotten squid. My dad used to wake my brothers and I by putting his feet by our face. Its aroma was so strong. It woke us up.

I used to be frustrated by my cat, knocking over a glass of water on the side table while I'm telling him, "don't do it!" He knocked it over anyways while looking into my eyes. My cat waking me up sitting on top of me with his asshole right in front of my face. I accidentally petted his ass thinking it's his head.

Maybe I'm just romanticizing the past. As I write this in my cheap Craigslist find memory foam while listening to K-Mart tapes, it's bringing back a lot of memories. Who knows? If I go back in time to actually face my dad's feet, I would probably get annoyed but I will hug him and tell him I love him and lately, after long day of work, my feet also started to smell like him, rotten squid.

I'm sure most of people heard about this but here is an incredible collection of K-Mart store music. Enjoy this little time machine. Here.
