Selling out.

So I'm sitting here at the computer, wasting time before I go to bed. The TV is on (Sneakers, on USA Network). Ads are playing, so I'm not paying attention. Then I hear a familiar song coming from the TV. So I turn to look to see what's going on. I look at the ad, and can't tell what they're selling, but then I figure out what the song is: This Is The Day, by The The. It's a Dockers ad. I never thought I'd hear a Matt Johnson song being used for commercial purposes. I guess he needed a new garage.

Comments:
Too funny that we posted such similar things. It says something about Johnson's former image, no? http://kilgore.blogspot.com/2005/05/sell-out.html
