AND LISTEN, I'm very much aware that this 31-year-old song is hardly obscure, having reached the Top 10 in both the U.S. and New Zealand. BUT, standing in the cereal aisle when from out of nowhere that intro started cranking up and watching old ladies shop for jam while "I'm gonna watch you bleed!" and "feel my serpentine!" shouted at them from the P.A. system was QUITE THE EXPERIENCE.
Best part was hearing the segue "When you're high, you never... ever want I NEED ALL BAGGERS TO THE FRONT. ALL BAGGERS TO THE FRONT PLEASE so dowwwwnnnnnn!"

Just heard Eddie Floyd's "Knock On Wood" at the supermarket. Not really obscure, but I haven't heard it on the radio or otherwise in the wild since the '80s.

i had a really weird moment not long ago when i heard "ship of fools" at trader joe's during the kavanaugh hearings was a bit too much tbh
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Tuesday, 11 December 2018 21:53 (five years ago) link
"ship of fools" by world party, that is
I always think "Knock On Wood" was a bigger Top 40 item than it was because it was an Oldies constant during me youth. But it only went to #28 (#1 R&B) and in fact the later Amii Stewart cover was way bigger (#1 Pop).

I was just in 99 Ranch Market, a massive Asian grocery, and they were playing a song that was the music from Tomorrow Never Knows, but with a John Lennon soundalike singing Jingle Bells over it. I don't know it was genius or a travesty.

At the point now that I'm not even going to mention hearing "Atlantis" by Donovan at Kroger.
Did make things a little awkward later when the Salvation Army bellringer started kicking the inside of my trunk.
