Anon D, I was in a bank some years back, with a radio playing elevator music, which sounded vaguely like…….Stairway To Heaven.
Mr. Sippi, Dr. Demento has a record of "Stairway To Gilligan's Island" (the words fit perfectly)–I'd bet the boys would be amused by it.
Stairway to Heaven IS elevator music.
