kjpepperI swear, lately my music obsessions have been coming from commercials.Besides the HP commercial with the Kinks, there's a holiday postal service with an absolutely adorable song called "Mail Myself to You." Originally this was a Woody Guthrie song, but this particular version is sung by a folk singer named John McCutcheon (seems like someone you would like, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

There's also another digital camera commercial with a Rufus Wainwright cover of the Beatles' "Across the Universe." It's funny, I seem to remember an interview with Moby a few years back when Play came out about how difficult it is to get airplay on the radio so the next best way to get exposure is selling song licenses... Selling out, maybe, but artists have gotta eat too. And hey, considering how I've had these songs following me around lately, it works.
Headache gone, but my back is still fucked up and I'm feeling craptastic and I'm worrying about a couple of people who are going through rough shit right now. I should sleep, but I can't... Ah well. I'm no stranger to a long night.
