Now Playing
Exactly what is that music we're listening to ? | |
I like loud booming music as much as the next baker, and every now and then some youth will drive past playing their music ridiculously loudly from their car stereo. Far from frowning on such activity I respect their right to listen to the stuff, moreover sometimes the tunes are great, but the ambient
noise is far too loud to ask them the track name. Enter the 'now playing' display which lists the current track on the back of the windscreen for all to see.

But if the track name was displayed "on the back of the windscreen", only those people in the car would be able to read it... |

It should wrap around like a Times Square stock ticker. |

Of course, these days you just pull up Moogle on your phone and press "Identify music" and let your phone listen to the track in question ... The problem being that this is nowhere near as much fun as the original idea, and the song promptly ends when you start using Moogle before your phone can figure it out. |

Edit: Did this gem really lay untouched for twenty years before garnering it's first comment? |

Wow, it's a calendar wrap-around. |

Those songs [neilp]/Steve/jjj wanted to identify are either now on the oldies channel - or if they already were, they've moved to the "If you remember this song, you're probably dead" pages. |
