That would be my guess as well.
However, I have frequently had that song on my mind in recent years. Before my company department moved offices last fall, we were located on a busy pedestrian shopping street, which was somewhat plagued by buskers, especially during the summer months and during December. One of these in particular was annoying as hell. He played the saxophone, and had only 5 songs in his repertoire which he repeated over and over again. This is usually not a problem if you're a shopper walking down the street, but when you're working in an office right above where he's standing, it becomes awful. One of the songs he played was Careless Whisper. Unfortunately, he didn't actually know all of it, so it mostly consisted of the first four (or possibly eight, depending on how the sheet music is written) bars of the saxophone solo, repeated about 30 times in a row. Since he usually stood there for about four hours in a row... Well, that's enough to turn your brains into oatmeal.
I still like the song though, particularly the
vintage 1930's jazz cover of it by Postmodern Jukebox.
