Even More Rock Sellouts

B. J. Thomas--Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head Advance Auto Parts (OK, so he's not exactly rock) Listen

EMF--Unbelievable Kraft Listen

Fatboy Slim--Right Here, Right Now Coors Listen

John Mellencamp--This is Our Country Chevrolet

The Who--Baba O'Riley Cisco Listen

The Rolling Stones--I'm Free Chase Bank Listen

Allman Brothers--Midnight Rider Prison Break Listen

Steppenwolf--Magic Carpet Ride Chevrolet Listen

The Beatles--From Me to You Macy's

Max Frost and The Troopers--The Shape of Things to Come Target Listen

The Clash--Rock the Casbah Cingular Listen

The one with the Clash song is pretty funny because the gen Xers in it are apparently too stupid to get the easy to understand lyrics right--they hear either "Rock the cashbox" or "Rake the catbox." Very droll.

I heard this from Joni Mitchell for about 15 years: "Don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you've got to lisk on." I always wondered what 'to lisk' was, but put it off to some Canadian term with which I was unacquainted. So the last ad seems particularly funny, to me.
