Music in every room

“Don’t pick out that. What are they going to do with a shower radio? Anyway, those things never work,” I advised.

My brother, A, was about to purchase a shower radio as a wedding gift for our mutual friends. I was against it. I had already picked out my gift, a bottle of fine wine. Nothing says romance like alcohol wrapped up in an elegant and expensive looking French bottle. My brother didn’t listen to me (of course) and purchased the silly shower radio anyway. Months later he ended up living with the married couple as a roommate on their couch. He was quick to remind me of our previous conversation concerning the wedding gift.

“I’ve been waking up every morning and groovin’ to some pretty hip tunes… in the shower.”

“Oh, you have, have you?” I replied.

“Yes, with the shower radio you said not to get. I guess they like it because its been in their shower and I’ve been making the most of it.”

“Uh huh."

At the risk of sounding contradictory and somewhat frivolous, I’ve been considering getting a shower radio. Not because of the previous conversation with my brother (although that does seem to come to mind) but because who wouldn’t want some music while in the bathroom? It can be tedious standing in the shower staring into the abyss or shaving ones legs without any form of inspiration. I just think music might liven things up a little. Does anyone know of a shower radio that works? I will probably need to do a little research.
