enjoy R.E.M.'s cover of The Clique's 1969 "I Am Superman" on the Life's Rich Pageant album?
then you'll just LOVE the cover of it now running background to the new toyota sequoia ads.
fucking R.E.M. song from the album that had "Cuyahoga" and "Fall Into Me"... now being used to sell a Japanese SUV named after a California redwood tree. fuck me end of the fucking world.
really cool ball thing in the commercial, though.

You know REM didn't sell this right?
The Clique has the rights.
yeah, i realized that after the fact. still, makes me go Peter Griffin-style "grind my gears" crazy, because i don't think most folks know this via The Clique version.
on an unrelated note, we here at girthy celebrate you, christopher. you've won our unofficial contest for "first person we think we don't actually know in real life to comment on our blog." if we ever get suitably girthy merchandise, remind us so we can send you something appropriately enthusing.
