What's this?

"Starting to play"...

...yes, if they play it once a day on average, the odds that the song is "starting to play" the exact second you walk through the door is 1 in 86,400.

Of course if it starts one second after you walk through the door that counts as a miss even though you would be hard pressed to tell the difference.
