Rant: Music in commercials

There's a commercial for J.C. Penny's Valentines Day sale airing right now. Usual romantic -love-is-defined-by-material-goods crap, but that's not what sets me off and makes me reach for things to throw at the screen.

It's the music. A watered-down soft rock version of Nena's 99 Red Balloons

That's right, a song about global thermonuclear war is being used to sell fake pearls.

The lyrics of the English version )

Well, that just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, how about you?
