**Tampa, FL** — Local resident Arthur Pendelton, 54, is entering his third consecutive month of emotional distress after his newly acquired 1978 Lincoln Continental Town Coupe developed a haunting electrical glitch that causes the car to continuously play George Michael’s 1984 hit single "Careless Whisper"—even when the engine is turned off, the key is removed, and the battery is completely disconnected.

### **Destiny Awaits**

The 19-foot-long land yacht, finished in Dark Jade metallic paint with a plush velvet interior, was intended to be Pendelton’s weekend cruiser. Instead, it has turned his suburban driveway into a permanent, unwanted lounge for smooth 80s saxophone solos.

"It started the night I brought it home," Pendelton said, rubbing his exhausted eyes. "I turned off the ignition, stepped out, and heard that iconic opening synth line. I figured it was just a delayed accessory relay. But then the saxophone kicked in. It’s been three months. It never stops. It doesn't even loop—it just finishes the track and seamlessly transitions right back into the opening riff."

### **You Can’t Kill Soul**

Automotive electricians and exorcists alike have attempted to diagnose the phenomenon, with zero success.

Attempts to silence the 1978 luxury barge have yielded bizarre results:

- **Battery Removal:** Disconnecting both terminals of the heavy-duty 12-volt battery only caused the tempo to slow down by approximately 5%, giving the saxophone line a deeply ominous, atmospheric pitch.
- **Radio Extraction:** Pulling the factory AM/FM 8-track player out of the dashboard entirely resulted in the music emanating directly from the A/C vents and the power steering pump.
- **Fuse Box Destruction:** Removing every fuse from the panel merely shifted the audio output to the car’s hideaway headlight doors, which now rhythmically actuate on the downbeat of every chorus.

### **It’s Not Careless and it is not Whispering**

"The car has achieved a state of pure, unadulterated mood lighting," explained mechanic Dave Higgins. "We’re dealing with a 460-cubic-inch V8 that somehow runs on pure, unrefined sultry energy. The electrical diagram says 'ignition circuit,' but the car's soul says 'guilty feet have got no rhythm.'"

Pendelton’s neighbors have expressed mixed feelings. While the local HOA has issued four noise violations, several local couples have reportedly taken to slow-dancing on Pendelton's lawn after dark.

"I just wanted to drive a classic American luxury car to the grocery store," Pendelton lamented, staring blankly at the Lincoln's gleaming hood ornament as the smooth saxophone line echoed through the humid Florida night air once again. "Now I can't even check my oil without feeling like I'm breaking someone's heart."
