  1. Thirded on the Graton Casino TV ads featuring what sounds like an even higher pitched version of "Feel It Still". I am neutral on the group Portugal The Man but that song is extremely... Gratin... I have even let the casino know how annoying it is. Doesn't have any effect. I guess they paid their bucks to PTM for it and will milk it for all its worth. I make sure I have the remote handy so I can mute the TV whenever that damn commercial comes on.

     

    Initially I thought it was a female voice. Then I did some research and discovered it's a guy in the group. I was hoping that knowledge would make it less Gratin, but no, it's just as bad if not slightly worse (couldn't be a lot worse because it's already super annoying).

     

    The draw back is that often I get distracted by other stuff and don't turn the sound back on as soon as the Graton commercial is done. Somebody needs to invent a remote with a timed mute button (if it's not already out there). I have also considered contact each local TV station that plays the commercials to let them know how PO'd I am about it.

     

    Peace on.

    Seconded for the very reason you mentioned. That song just hurt my ears.

     

    Right now I have a special hate for "Feel It Still" by Portugal. The Man. A local casino (Graton Resort & Casino) is using it for almost all its commercials. At first I thought it was an update of "Please, Mr. Postman" by the Marvelettes, but I was wrong. Thank God for the mute button!

     

    Also,  anything being sung by Mariah Carey is pretty annoying to me. She's just too shrill for me.
