While I agree that Rhapsody in Blue is a wonderful piece, I'm absolutely sick of hearing it. I now associate most of my experiences with Rhapsondy in Blue with being kept endlessly on hold at UA.

Absolutely. Whatever its musical mertis, years of hearing Rhapsody in Blue while on permanent hold, on un-airconditioned planes in ground holds, and in stuffy, overcrowded airports now causes the piece to reliably induce the Ludovico Effect (from A Clockwork Orange) in me.
