Greatest Movie Ever Sold, Documentary by Morgan Spurlock for those who are looking for where this song originated. The Movie itself is about how marketing affects people (general plot).
You want proof that product placement works, many of the hits on this song and the mirrors are from OK GO's product placing in TGMES. Morgan, I'd say that's success!
Driving in my Mini Copper - Sipping on a Pom - Listening to OK GO after having my hair washed with Mane n Tail - on my way to the air port to fly with jetBlue to stay in a HYATT hotel and eat in a Sheetz and get back to a fridge full of Amys Pizza
@cpsnancyd Completely agree, the lyrical meaning of "of blue color of the sky" was brilliant, especially on tracks like sky scrapers, but i feel they have moved away from their roots in rock (such as their first self titled album).I felt their latest album had some great songs but wasn't as easy listening as their other ones.
Damien Kulash: "Does that mean.. Hold on, if we make the theme for The Greatest Movie Ever Sold, does that mean that we're the greatest rock band ever to write a theme song?"
I jUst watched " The greatest movie ever sold" Its the first time i ever heard of Ok Go. The song got stuck in my mind and i had to youtube it. definitely The Greatest song i ever heard.
I typed in "The greatest song i ever heard" randomly to see what i'd find, and I ended up ACTAULLY finding the greatest song i ever heard! (honestly, i expected a bunch of Justin Beiber vids to come up, and im proud to say there wasn't any!)
@ridonkeykongulous You know that he would die out if retards like you didn't always bring up his fucking name? Christ.. remember the Jonas Brothers? They were big and then died out. Just shut up.
Can anyone understand the lyrics at 1:10? It starts something like "Now, I saw Bob Dylan...." If anyone can tell me what the next couple of lines are I'd really appreciate it.
@mconnolly09 "Now, I saw Bob Dylan gone electric, feeling Pete Seeger with his axe in the crowd." If you go to OK Go's Website, find the forums, and search "The Greatest Song I Ever Heard," you should be able to find the lyrics that someone figured out.
Now, I saw Bob Dylan down electric dealing, Peach Zinger with his Ax in the cloud. Maggie and the barn never meant no harm. But her heart started beating too loud. And I contemplate bout the feeling i had and i let it slip away with her and that just proves that that's not good, but that's the greatest song I ever heard.
