  • I just want to like this song SO much... but I don't.

  • @bobbydylanio

    it's a difficult task to follow up the two previous songs on the album, haha

  • Comment removed

  • @bobbydylanio lol, you missed the stick altogether I'm afraid. Passionate speech though, you should put that self-righteous fervor to use.

  • "Nationwide is on your side..." ... try it, you'll be surprised they got away with using this melody lmao. Had more hipsters gone into the insurance field B&S would be getting sued...

  • @funcdoktor

    ...that a a joke?

    You're aware this record is 15 years old?

  • @FungusMossGnosis both melodies are the same... listen for it and you'll see ... You're aware that the jingle has been around since the late 80's?

  • @funcdoktor

    No, if you're right then I apologize for assuming you were talking about a recent jingle. I haven't found the one you're talking about yet.

    I'm not an expert on obscure insurance company jingles. If you could provide a link, it might help me see the light.

  • @FungusMossGnosis Nationwide obscure? Took an expert did it? Well if anything, you've proved your hipster credentials, which means you should do the digging lol

  • @funcdoktor

    Don't be nuts. It's obscure enough that I couldn't find out what you're talking about after digging through 3 pages on tube under "Nationwide" search.

    No such jingle found yet.

    Can you prove said jingle as been around before this record? If not, shush now.

  • @FungusMossGnosis I have two links which I can neither post on this page nor DM to you as you locked your box to 'friends only'. Let me know if you're still interested :)

  • @funcdoktor "Friends only"

    That sure wasn't intentional. Youtube keeps fiddling around with my settings. I'll do what I can in the next day to set it right.

    I'll be happy to finally get these links -- it's been bothering me every waking hour these past couple Months! I've been on medications to keep me from leaping off buildings because of it.

    Good tidings.

  • @funcdoktor

    Alright, so here are the links you gave:

    youtube . com /watch?v=0rJBg0TZ0nM

    /watch?v=dUTbSV4Q6EI

    Wow, before my time for sure!

    The first one I can definitely here a similarity to part of the melody. It's entirely possible that it was only coincidence, or maybe subconscious. I don't know how likely it is they heard those old commercials back in Scotland.

    If it's homage, it is obscure.

    Anyway, it's not enough of a lift that the original writer could claim copyright infringement.

  • @FungusMossGnosis Lol, whatever gets you through the night. Conjecture aside however - Nationwide used it first, and have ever since. Cheers mate.

  • @funcdoktor Hipsters? Is that a joke. You one of these people that doesn't like people that listens to bands that dont have countless millions of fans? Make you feel better for liking masses friendly dog shit? Sorry If i got the wrong end of the stick here only you mentioned the word hipster twice, makes you sound like a crank.

  • one of my favs from the album

  • i love this song
