Because anti-commercialism is FORBIDDEN.
 'Advertising: Your lying, you're never gonna give me what I want; Smooth talking, brainwashing - never gonna give me what I need'.
The road to happiness has had the signs torn down and rewritten. 'Stuff' substitutes for fulfilment, and every human instinct has been subverted to feed the consumer society.
This song is a rare warning to society; it laments the subversion of truth and reality and the search for happiness for commercial gain by advertising.

Music is an industry built around commercial gain.
Ignore this at your peril!
Cold Chisel did with 'You got nothing I want' written about record company executives in America. The song single-handedly destroyed them there. No airplay, no record deals, cancelled gigs - for a band that would have undoubtedly been bigger than AC/DC.

I keep coming back & checking this clip because, yeah, saw these guys a number of times then...and now, you know what - they are still fresh, xty years on. Whoever mentioned Iggy Pop, yep, you are in the right block of the musical universe.

because both videos were played on the Australian music show titled 'Rage'.

'Rage' is a music TV show in Australia that plays any clip imaginable and does not have a host and is not interupted by ads. It's almost perfect.

It's also been on air for 21 years.
