Tina Weymouth of the Talking Heads and the Tom Tom Club...

there's an advert on british tv at the moment which is all about the value of words (it's for vodaphone) and most of the text that flashes up on screen is taken from wordy rapping hood (or whatever it's called). some of this text is read out over the jingly music that's playing but the music isn't the original stuff but something airy fairy. i wonder if the ad agency actually credited / paid the tom tom club for the words or whether they tried to pass it off as their own work... (it's about now that somebody points out that it wasn't the tom tom club that did this or something. i'm not entirely sure. before my time (he says, lying)) oh, and you all forgot to mention tiffany... 8) andy ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
