Fed-up Irish music store introduces 'Strictly NO Adele' policy

A MUSIC store in Dublin, Ireland has heard more than enough of British soul singer Adele's hit Someone Like You and officially banned customers from playing it in the shop.

Despite being the best selling single of the year so far, workers at the Opus ii musical instrument store were so sick of hearing people try to play the ballad on their pianos and keyboards that they put a "Strictly NO Adele" sign up in the window.

"It's become the piano equivalent of (Led Zeppelin's) Stairway To Heaven, everyone thinks they can play it," an Opus ii shop employee told The Independent newspaper. "The sign was a bit of a joke, but the song can drive you mad."
