I enjoy most of the long BGM tracks; they are nice when I'm working. One short track that has been getting on my nerves lately is the one with the Frito Kid and Klondike ("Send up another bag of crunchy Fritos!"). It only runs 2-3 minutes, but it annoys me; not sure why.

This track tends to bother a lot of people. I've never seen this attraction/food stand but there's something about this track I like. I guess it's the thought of a fun technology (albeit, old) being used. I can picture myself as a kid using something like that and would have probably thought it was great.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't stand the Frito Kid and Klondike sound byte but I can defnitely understand why some people do like it since it may bring back many memories to some.

oh man i LOVE Klondike and the Frito Kid... I probably request that track way more than anyone else...

Sorry to those who don't like it, but it is a short one, at least.

If anything, I find the Frito Kid track amusing now. I like how he says, "Free-toes".

Last night, during the chat, I realized I dread Club 33 background music. I'm not too fond of the instrumental versions of these tracks. Maybe if I ate a meal there, I'd not dread it.

Long live Frito Kid! 8) Such a great track is worthy of inclusion in the 50th retrospective. Oh wait, that's where we found it!

Well it's not too bad (the frito kid) but when your trying to study in a computer lab with the headphones on, It can get on my nerves. I know I could just put the headphones down but It's better then listening to constant typing from 100 students in the lab.

Although I certainly appreciate the historic significance of the Frito-kid track, and it seems to always bring a tear to my fathers eye.....I wouldn't mind hearing it...say...once a year. :wink:

Most of the time, whenever an It's a Small World track is coming up, I turn the volume down for a few minutes.

Yeah if I get It's a Small World stuck in my head, I will have to shoot myself.

Hooray for the Wonders of Life Loop! That's one of my favorites, too. And it may soon become part of Yesterland...

Anything from The Hall of Presidents makes me quickly change over to the "scheduled" station.
