Starbucks is inviting all of us to take off our coats and stay awhile. But not that person who goes there just for the internet and doesn’t order a drink or a muffin! You know who you are. If you want the internet, just stay (awhile) in the parking long you goofball! OK, I’ve done that before, I’m sorry Starbucks. Take a look at the ad then let’s take a walk down memory lane.
The Song. Over 50 years ago when legend Willie Nelson was 102 years old, he recorded this song called “Stay All Night (Stay a Little Longer)”…
But that would be considered a cover version because the original song is by Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys. They recorded the track in the early 1940s, you know… the good ol’ days…
Are you upset that the first time you’re hearing such a good song is in a Starbucks ad? It’ll take some time to come to peace about that. Kind of like a dude with a shirt he loves but it’s from Old Navy. For all of you coffee lovers in Florida, check out my friends’ shop Opus Coffee with shops all around Gainesville, Florida, or order online here. Good guys, good coffee!
