While heading to or from the mall on the bus today (I can't remember which) I realized that my cellphone battery was low (what else is new?). Immediately the Backstreet Boys' song "The Call" popped into my head. Not that I am a fan of the Backstreet Boys but it's probably the only song I know that mentions a battery being low.
