Agreed. I'm of a mind that licensing music to adverts is a reasonable--and effective--method of promoting lesser-known artists.
That ad completely went over the line though. Talk about whoring yourself out to The Man. |

Agreed. That grates on my nerves too. |

It's what makes RP eclectic! Wouldn't buy it, but don't mind the diversity it brings.

Uh-oh. Now that they have moved into Outback Steakhouse territory, the song is creeping into Macarana territory...

Why does this sounds like it is a song from the 80s. And I don't mean "sounds like" an 80s song. I mean like I remember hearing it back then, kind of sort of. Is this a remake or a ripoff of another song from then?

I think that makes this song awesome.
I agree.
PS: Lyrics are usually messed up. If they're normal, they're un-lyric like. Heh! |

But next Friday in Chattanooga, TN free concert I will be there with my brother.
Didn't make it to Athens, but heard it was a REALLY awesome concert.
Saw them for free in Chattanooga though. It was great. |
