music makes me…shop?

i don’t know about you
but certain songs evoke memories & emotions within my soul.

some songs get me charged up.
some songs help me remember a special occasion.
some songs take me back in time.
some songs actually bring a tear to my eye.

and,
some songs make me want to shop.

 yeah, shop.

case in point?
lights by ellie goulding.
 

i hear this song on the radio from time to time,
but i swear i hear it while shopping ALL of the time.

it’s blasted over the airwaves at loft and bed bath & beyond.
i’m pretty certain i’ve heard it at gap and i SWEAR sears was playing it as i tried squeezing into a lands end bathing suit earlier this week.
but, the icing on the cake?  i heard it while grocery shopping.

seriously, y’all, what is it about this song & me whipping out my check card?

i’m sure if the song was played backwards it would really say,
“michelle, put away your wallet, get back in your car and go home and finish the damn laundry.”
