Anybody else

Anybody else bothered by the new Wendy's commercials that use "Blister in the Sun" by the Violent Femmes as the backgound music?

This just ain't right especially when the announcer starts talking about warm cheese sauce. disbelief barf

Okay, it's melted mozerella sauce.

I love the Violent Femmes and love the song but somehow it just doesn't go with food.

Blister in the Sun
When I`m out walking I strut my stuff yeah I`m so strung out
I`m high as a kite I just might stop to check you out
let me go on like I blister in the sun
let me go on big hands I know your the one
body and beats I stain my sheets I don`t even know why
my girlfriend she`s at the end she is starting to cry
let me go on like I blister in the sun
let me go on big hands I know your the one...

I'm annoyed because I like the song, and I can't figure out why it's being used in the first place.

I swear, songs are picked for commercials without anybody really putting any thought into it. Remember Iggy Pop's "Lust For Life" being used by the Carnival Cruise Line? A touch innapropriate, eh? lol
