An Update On Reality

I spent the last two days writing down the stuff people have asked for in my music/movie/video game store:

• The song "Kandi" by One Eskimo
• The DVD to Chances Are
• The CD to Santana's Supernatural
• The "Warsaw Concerto" by Richard Addinsell
• The DVD for the Disney movie Motorcrossed
• The song "Lucky" by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat
• The CD to Ready by Trey Songz

Aside from the Trey Songz album, which we don't even carry in our store because it's WEA, and that One Eskimo track, very few people are looking for the really new stuff when it comes to music. Aside from Chances Are and Motorcrossed, both over a decade old, movies seem to be the thing that people scramble into the store to buy on the first week, like The Losers and Cop Out. Chances Are was a request from a 60-something year old lady, and Motorcrossed was from a man looking to buy it for his little girl, which didn't even come up in our UPC as even existing on DVD (although Amazon shows that it was once on VHS). Trey Songz's Ready is still a hot ticket, even with his brand new album coming out in September. And "Lucky" was a huge hit last year, or heck, was it the year before? Damn but it's so easy to lose track of time when you are too busy shilling shit.
