Do you guys find you hear them a lot, and you sing along or whatever? I thought we could post & share our (weird & wonderful, if you must) experiences of the guys in the world. It happens to me ALL the time. I was in a bar the other day & a guy was playing an acoustic set & he did Use Somebody, it was SO bad, he didn't know any of the lyrics. Later, I hear SoF in a club. I don't mind it when I've been drinking, but other than that, it makes me mad.

I always go nuts whenever I hear KOL when I'm out, I just can't help squealing in delight and having a song and dance to it! I go to a lot of bars, in one particular one I always hear Use Somebody and Manhattan. In another I go to for their all nighters, they nearly always play Sex On Fire, Molly's Chambers and Four Kicks. I think they've played The Bucket once too. I personally love it when I hear them somewhere I'm not expecting to hear them. It makes me glad somehow xxx

If I was somewhere I'd really be annoyed about it being played, I'd probably start telling whoever I was with I was a fan (whether they knew before or not is besides the point), and maybe make some comment about it. But the bars I've been to where they've been played have been nice music bars or something.. one even played the whole of ASH! which was heaven

I know, I NEVER listen to the songs myself, yet I'm utterly sick of them.
I avoid mentioning my fan-dom, I really don't want people to know the extent of it.

I made 2 KOL mixtapes (cds) for my car (still not covered the whole back catalogue with 2 cds lol) and I pretty much have the windows down and blare them when I'm driving through the town lol...trying to spread the word Other than that I hear Molly's Chambers/Fans/The Bucket/Sex On Fire when I'm in my favourite club - Firewater Or I'll hear Use Somebody if my Mum's listening to the radio in the kitchen/watching music channels on tv.

i find that i always hear KoL at the bars..
haha.. maybe it's because i make it a point to find the jukebox or whatever and pay however much i have to pay to listen to them!! my friends and i dont care that we're the only ones loving the song right then and there

I heard Sex on Fire in Debenhams once, it made me angry though. I didn't want the other shoppers having the delight of hearing this song and not paying any bloody attention to it. Where as I tend to stop in my tracks and listen intently where ever KOL are involved!

I was in the local chippy today [diet's out the window ] and Sex on Fire came on, at first I thought it was the radio until Use Somebody followed it. Chatting with Gino [the bloke who owns the shop] I discovered he's apparently a mad ass fan and has been for a long time. I never knew!!

^ That's cool!! I hear Use Somebody all the time on the radio now and occasionaly in shops (but people don't pay them enough attention, they just carry on the same as they did for the previous song - surely that's a crime! Pay bloody attention!), not even SOF anymore unless it's the chart show. Other than that I don't really here them anywhere cool

We have On Call and Fans on the playlist in Next. I love it when they come on! Oh and the other day i was in the shopping center and i was walking by a small mens shop and i stopped dead in my tracks and was looking around to see where that wonderful soiund was coming from. The mens shop-Bertoni has Razz on! That was awesome. Razz!!! My favourite song! Jared's song......I was happy. The two guys working there must've thought i was wierd though- walking by and just stopping dead and looking around me at nothing. I don't care. It made my day. I wanted to go into the shop but thought i shouldn't cos it was tiny and i'm a woman who doesn't really buy mens clothes too often! Especially expensive suits and ties! And the guys probably would've been straight over trying to convince me to buy loads cos they had no other customers at the time.

I was in a shop for the Boxing Day sales and they were playing YAYM. Maybe one of the staff got it for Christmas or something? I just hung around for a while bopping along and singing.
