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. |
| laozilover (Left of Chicago and up) | Posted: Oct 28, 2006 - 13:16  Just bumped my rating from 7 to 8 --- gotta get it for the cover alone. |

Agreed. That grates on my nerves too. |

| Pipes (Top of the mountain) | Posted: Oct 11, 2006 - 05:54 It's what makes RP eclectic! Wouldn't buy it, but don't mind the diversity it brings. |

| Geecheeboy (under a crescent moon and palmetto tree) | Posted: Oct 07, 2006 - 12:37 Uh-oh. Now that they have moved into Outback Steakhouse territory, the song is creeping into Macarana territory... |
| onapath (Pennsylvania, USA) | Posted: Oct 05, 2006 - 18:39 Will this end???? Ever!?!?! |
| SmackDaddy | Posted: Oct 05, 2006 - 18:37 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! |
