What is with the freaking piano loop?

I look at Salon ordinarily with Opera on a Mac. Lately, whenever i click on a song link, or go to any other open browser window or tab from AudioFile, a short loop of piano tinkling starts and continues until i return to the page, totally spoiling the chance to appreciate any of the linked songs without downloading them and listening after closing AudioFile. Whatever is the deal with that?

I didn't see this in a search, but it's a great (totally legal!) freebie that Curtis Mayfield fans will love: Bran Van 3000's Astounded. BV3 layers lush strings and latino percussion under sweet, sexy prev. unreleased Curtis Mayfield vocal from the vaults. "I just wanna love you ... Oh yeah, baby. Totally infectious ear candy here at:

Bran Van 3000's page. Stream and mp3 are on the righthand side. Clickable link's also in my sig.

This version has more of an extended latino part at the end than the radio and vid edits I've heard.

DISCLAIMER: I'm not a shill. This song's just too good not to share.
