So AT&T is using Lou Reed's "Perfect Day" in one of their Olympics ads.

Do these companies ever listen to all the lyrics of the songs they buy rights to, or do they figure most people won't know/care?

"You're going to reap just what you sow."

Not a lovey dovey kinda song.

Yeah, I did a serious double take when I heard "Perfect Day" playing. Then again, after Royal Caribbean started using Iggy Pop's "Lust For Life" to sell cruises, nothing surprises me anymore.

When I heard an instrumental cut from "Walk on the Wild Side" on a Gatorade commercial, I admit to being taken aback.
