Which Would You Rather Hear - Muzak or a Remake?

I've got a feeling this poll may be divided evenly, but I may be wrong. I'm just curious how many of you actually like hearing classic rock bands re-record their original hit songs with a different lead singer. Is there really a market for this stuff, or is it just being driven by the egos of the band members and their record executives? This poll should provide a good indicator.

Actually, I probably should have voted for "neither" since it WAS an option, but I would DEFINITELY want to hear muzak rather than yet another sound-a-like. To me, that's insulting................and always will be.

Given what Journey had to go through to get their band really and truly back and out of hock, I salute their entitlement to D2 Revelation and applaud the effort.

It always amazes me what songs they turn into Muzak. I would rather hear the songs they way they were meant to sound originally But sometimes any music is better than complete silence. Do not like remakes though.

Actually the store I work in plays Muzak.... but it's all the original songs and artist....some of it is pretty current.
I believe there are different stations that you can pick from.... for whatever style of muzak.

I voted neither....since what I usually listen to is not an option.

Which Would You Rather Hear - Muzak or a Remake?

Would you rather hear your favorite classic rock song on the Muzak audio of a store (no vocals), or a re-make version from the original band with a soundalike singer?
