Hello Kitty? What was Mrs Nickelback singing about?

I'll post it on Twitter. Mr. Buckley's comments about this song are not board friendly.

got the CSNY 1974 box set. I wasn't that pleased with the first disc, wooden ships was downright terrible, not sure who supervised the selection, but some of these recordings are obviously after or on a good bender. I would hope to think there would be better selection from the tour, but I suppose not? The 2nd disc is much better. Neil Young sounds fantastic on everything I've heard so far.

Been listening to a ton of reggae again. I'm still crazy about it. It has to be my favorite music after metal.

The bots are currently murdering my, btw. 23 minutes and I haven't gotten in.

Forgot we are doing a house-to-house tapas crawl on our street Saturday, so maybe it's for the best. We organized the thing and are the first host house, so it would be kinda poor form to cancel with 36 hours' notice.

I never knew about this.

$200k for 30 seconds of selling out, which was eventually shot down by their manager

As you will hear below, Barney and Hooky did stop laughing long enough to get a deadpan reading of this ad copy on tape. However, according to the band, manager Rob Gretton nixed the deal before it could go any further. A mock-up of the ad eventually came out on the band’s NewOrder Story©, a home video documentary released the same year as the Republic© album (1993). It’s an entertaining program, though my doctor has advised me never to watch it again because of the effect Bono’s contributions have on my nervous condition.

Bernard Sumner talked about the ad in a 1999 Q&A with fans. One Peter Rees of Shrewsbury asked what the lyrics were supposed to have been, and Barney did his best to remember:

“How does it feel/When you’re drinking in the sun? Something something/Sunkist is the one/How does it feel/When you’re drinking in the sun/All you’ve got to believe/Is Sunkist is the one.” I didn’t write them. We got offered £100,000 to do it. I kept laughing when I was singing it, so Hooky got a piece of card and wrote “£100,000” on it, held it up, and I sang it perfectly. But then Rob Gretton turned up and he put the kibosh on it. There’s a remix of Blue Monday by Steve “Silk” Hurley and it’s got the Sunkist lyrics on it.

And Peter Hook discussed the commercial in a contemporary interview with SPIN:

Is it true that the band did a commercial for Sunkist?

“They asked us to try it. So we tried it and it sounded so bad that we couldn’t let them have it. They originally told us they wanted to use ‘Blue Monday’ and we thought, ‘Fine. Great.’ So then they said, ‘Right, when are you gonna do this voice over?’ Voice over? We tried singing the changed lyrics and we started rolling around on the floor. They were offering us a fortune, but the cringe part of it was too heavy.”

What were the changed lyrics?

“Sunkist is the one,” Hook says through clenched teeth. “Oh, never mind.”
