Wake Up Call

I was playing something on YouTube--"Relaxing Summer Jazz & Bossa Nova Music--Happy Jazz Instrumental Music for Studying, Sleep, Work." Not the sort of thing I usually listen to, but I had it on in the background and forgot about it.



Suddenly, an ugly, raspy voice took over.  It turned out to be a commercial. I understand they interrupt lengthy videos with ads, but this one was of a smoker who'd lost her vocal cords.

I'm trying to imagine someone who's truly into relaxing jazz.  Maybe doing housework, maybe about to take a nap.  That rasp would certainly wake them up.

Maybe that's the point, but couldn't they choose a commercial not quite so disconcerting?  And if they have to put the ad somewhere, let me suggest amidst someone like Louis Armstrong.

Commercials are really annoying. This new type of advertising exists by default whether we like it or not. And if you really want to relax from the music, wait for a nasty voice or silly promotional music to spoil the chilling. Why they not use special advertising like android advertisement or banners.
