America, Van, And Other Italicized Lyrics - Clarion Call Against Covid (1 Viewer)

[rockaction]

It's about a Grandmother and her family granting her dead husband's last wish. It's a tough one.   

I can't put this in the Commercials I Hate thread because I don't. I can't put it in the Commercials I Love thread because I don't.

Is it even threadworthy? Weigh in here.

Okay, maybe it was just NBCSN then. That's why I asked. I basically had the same station on all day.  

 

[Nugget]

Haven't seen it air but I read about on an ad blog.  VW has the best commercials in the auto industry by a mile.

Us Caps fans actually appreciate the dose of sobriety.  "Who cares if they blow another second round series to the Penguins. I'm probably just gonna end up in a jar being toted around the country by my wife so she can get closure anyway."

And you shall take me strongly in your arms again
And I will not remember
That I even felt the pain

 

[Ilov80s]

And you shall take me strongly in your arms again
And I will not remember
That I even felt the pain

And I will drink the clear clean water for to quench my thirst
And I shall watch the ferry-boats, and they'll get high
On a bluer ocean against tomorrow's sky

 

[Nipsey]
