Anyone seen the Housequake/Volkswagen commercial I just saw it on Youtube. INteresting, since I thought he was against using his songs for commercialized ventures.
It may be an old commercial b/c I have never seen it before. "Old man's gotta be the old man. Fish has got to be the fish." | |

He may not be able to control the usage sometimes. "Knowledge is preferable to ignorance. Better by far to embrace the hard truth than a reassuring faith.

I find it interesting that the record company has that much pull over his material use "Old man's gotta be the old man. Fish has got to be the fish." | |

That VW commercial was most likely done by an ad agency or a student for speculation purposes only, or maybe just for fun. It was probably never contracted by VW, and certainly not Prince or WB.
It's been around for a few years. It is fun If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |
