Jim O'Rourke Wal-Mart ad.

remittanceman [Edit] [Delete] 13:35, 7 December '10

Don't normally care about artists' music being used in ads but this one made me chuckle to think that some Republican types might have an issue with this album cover associated with the titan of all-American retail. Maybe I'll email Sarah Palin to let her know and attach the lyrics to Halfway to a Threeway.

still not a patch on the irony of that Gang of Four song being used in an Xbox advert.
