I thought RP was commercial free?
Sounds like an ad for Carnival Cruises.
I wonder if anyone can make a reasonable argument that Iggy DID NOT sell out?

It means "getting yelled at" or "being screwed" (not sexually) - as in I got it in the ear from the boss today.
Great song! I don't care how many companies have ruined this one on TV ads, it's still a great song.
(re: "of course i've had it in the ear before")
i think it's a whimsical joking perverse gay sex reference.
c'mon, it's IGGY for chrissake!
you know, david bowie's friend?
those guys exploited sexual ambiguity as fine (pop) art.
just modern guys!

Used to MUCH better effect in Trainspotting than in the cruise commercial.

Yes. They use it all of the time. I have heard it promoting movies and shaving cream, for two.

Years ago this would have rated a 9. Thanks to the commercials, it now has to get a 7. I can't get them out of my head -- smiling people and their floating sewage-dumping hotel.
If you're going to cruise the Caribbean, do it under sail. Now, that's lust for life!
