The Fall & Mitsubishi

Holy fucking god lord almighty. Watching the NYC marathon this morning, and the fucking Fall song "Blindness" was the soundtrack on a Mitsubishi ad.

Even more surreal, they actually included a short snippet of the vocal part. The dirty bassline definitely has a Dodge-"Hit It!"-Take-Life-By-The-Horns feel, but I guess someone thought it was also interesting that he says "I was walking down the - - street"...

About as clever as the NBC broadcast's selection of Springsteen's "Born To Run" to use in interstitials.
