Anyway You Want It, Thats The Way You Need It

I dont watch much TV but this summer thats all I have been doing. Is anyone else tired of the same commercials at every break. In DC we have the Ford Commercial that uses the Journey song with the hook "Anyway you want it, thats the way you need, anyway you want it." Is anyone else tired of seeing the same commercials over and over and over again.

My boyfriend was singing that song OVER and OVER and OVER today . . . but only those two lines, because apparently that's all he knew. It was driving me crazy. I wondered where he got it from . . .

My sister has been driving me crazy singing those stupid lines all summer! When the commercial comes on, she turns it UP! It's very annoying.

Not as bad as the Mr. Roborto commercial for VW i think. That song was stuck in my head for weeks and I keep thinking that it was a queen song. So I went through my neighbors queen cds collection and couldn't find anything. I learn that it was a Styx song. Wow, talk bout off tangent.

Well im sure the adveritisers are very happy that we have these tunes stuck in our head. Think about thee classic jingles that are a part of American Culture like "I love fishes cause their so delicious, got gold fishes". Any other commercials you are tired of seeing? I am tired hearing Celine Dione on the Chrysler Pacifica commercial.

I have that song from the Tide/Oxyclean commercial stuck in my head. I catch myself singing it throughout the day..."Anything you can do, I can do better......Anything you can do I can do too...."

I love the song! (I am a Journey/Steve Perry fanatic)
But the "anything you can do, I can do better" commerical is nerve wracking

I HATE the Celine Dion van commercial, everytime I see it I think
about how likely it is that Celine Dion straps her kid into a CHRYSLER every day and drives around in the mountains with him by herself. Come on, you know that kid rides around wearing a Prada sleeper in a Burberry car seat in the back seat of a Mercedes while jeeves the driver drops them off at the Plaza.

You should see these damn poptart commercials that have been airing in Ontario. The current one is the third edition, and each one has been overplayed to hell. At the end, they have this same gino guy for each one going...BAAAAAMMMMMMMM. It's because so engrained in my everyday speech, i've even used it a few times on gc.
