Speaking of 25-year-old hipsters, why don't you tell everyone what you were watching - Friends!!!!!! Don't feel bad, I was watching it too. That and the Simpsons are my favorite shows. Anyway, you must've missed the next one. They used a song by Fluke. Damned if those two commercials didn't make me want to buy a way-overpriced Golf with a new hairdo. I'd rather see my favorite songs whored for a couple of bucks than another Rolling Stones song. It'd be nice if our bands made enough money to keep making records. One thing - why do only the European car companies use this type of music in their advertising?
