Are there Walmarts in Australia?
As far as I know, there are none. If there were, I would go visit one for sure, so I could see why Eddie loves them so much  There are similar superstores, which sell most everything. But I don't think independently they have the same range as a Walmart does. Incidentally, I have been to a Walmart, in Greenwood Mississippi. That's quite a few years ago now. It was impressive, and I remember that they didn't play that awful song.

I think it was in the local Walmart back in December that I was unable to escape the annual 'run for my life' crap holiday song; Macca's worst song ever. I won't even name the title so hopefully it doesn't create an ugly earworm for you.
I love the Beatles' songs for the most part, as a band and many of their solo work - but there should be some sort of fine for airing that song in any way, shape or form.

Are there Walmarts in Australia? Yes, but they call them Wallabymart. That was a belly laugh! ...I can't name a Taylor Swift song. Or Adele. Or Pink. Or Lady Gaga. Or most of them!  Now you'll be able to. ...That would keep me from getting Taylor Swift and Arianna Grande poisoning!! Think of this as a vaccination! These two records from this decade screamed "hit" the first time I heard them. Each is commercial, but also artistic, IMO. The first is Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off". She is the first listed of 3 writers. This is IMO a brilliantly written pop song. Catchy tune, incredible hook, stunning word play (twist of phrase), and a GREAT message. IMO, it's a little work of art. I had never seen this "official" video until today; I watched it to get the link for this post. I thought the dancing cute, but it distracted from the record. But note that there are nearly 2 BILLION (yes, that's a "B") views of this video. If you chose to watch / listen, I would strongly suggest headphones. And further suggest a second listen without watching, simply to marvel at how clever the lyric is. Still, the difference between the mp3 and CD (on a good system) is startling. If you don't like it, well, "HATERS GONNA HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE!" "Shake It Off" (Taylor Swift) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfWlot6h_JMHere is another I think exceptional, "Born This Way" from Lady Gaga and written by Lady Gaga. Again, the official video has nearly 2 Billion views. But it lasts over 7 minutes. This shorter one, with 31 million views, has the lyrics. "Born This Way" (Lady Gaga) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BsLd4Y060Q

We did have Walmart in Germany until a couple of years ago. Then they moved out, obviously in Germany there was a lack of free advertising. Here I've never seen the sort of people that triggered others to snap a shot and widely publish it.

I have heard that Taylor Swift song as background music for a parody video on youtube. An acquaintance from Cleveland is her guitar player. One of those "he'd know me if he saw me but wouldn't remember my name" types. Did sound for his cousin's band here for a while.....

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
