I can't believe this. I mean I CAN, but I CAN'T...

I just saw a commercial for a fast food restaurant. It's a minute later, and frankly, I can't remember what restaurant it was - Wendy's, maybe?

At any rate, the music used in the commercial is the Violent Femmes' "Blister In The Sun." None of the lyrics were included in the ad, but still! Blister In The Sun! In a burger ad!

:rofl:

1. how appetizing

nothing gets me craving burgers like thinking about a festering blister in the sun.

Seriously though, that album spoke for all of Gen X better than any other and I guess they are 'coming for us now' if they are onto using that, so to speak.

2. I just hear that on the radio

I think it was Wendy's. I was humming along when I realized what the song was. :cry:

[Maine-ah]

3. eh, it only gets worse for us...

soon we'll be hearing it in elevators and on the oldies stations....:cry:

5. I've already heard songs that came out when I was in middle school on the "Classic Rock" station...

and I'm only 25 for pete's sake...

4. i saw that and wondered if the management at BK headquarters ever heard

the lyrics to that song.

7. That's what I wondered too.

Have they listened to the song?

6. I think it is Wendy's too.

I saw that commerical too and I was grooving to the song!
