Re: Whip it---Whip it good

That Gateway commercial on TV with the Cow and truckdriver singing Devo's "Whip it" just cracks me up. Anyone else amused? Anyone else got a funny commercial?

Before anyone flames me for spamming, you have to admit that this is SLIGHTLY music related; also, Gateway STOLE the cow thing from Atom Heart Mother, so it kind of ties into PF too. So there, I feel justified.

Re: Whip it---Whip it good

Unfortunately living in Italy prevents me from getting that commercial at all, but I like Devo and I know that song... I find it funny even without cows and truckdrivers.

Well, I know this isn't really gonna help you man, but, you know, we're here to talk nonsense, ain't we?

Oh, by the way, which one's pink?

Re: Whip it---Whip it good

I know exactly what you're talking about, strat. That is hilarious. One of my personal favourites, dealing between both music (though not PF) and comic genius...the AIWA stereo system commercial when a funeral procession is headed by a herse blaring Queen's "Another One Bites The Dust" and rocking out as horrified motorists look on....

...classic.

Re: Whip it---Whip it good

I know one thing that ticked me off about a commercial lately. The darn 10-10-987 (or whichever one), freaking Tears for Fears, like my favorite 80's song of all time sold out to it man.

See below.

Re: Whip it---Whip it good

Remember the video for that song (Everybody Wants To Rule The World)? It had a cool Austin Healey 3000 just like the one I used to own....nostalgia.

Thx for bumping this loser of a thread, NNJ.

We'll have enough of that talk Stratters! If it's good for you, it's good for us all. So there

I just recently rediscovered Tears For Fears, kind of, thanks the Donnie Darko. I love 'em.
