    Today I heard a commercial that didn't use Indie music!

    Just kidding!

    Best way to break into the music business is to write commercial "jingles".

    If you've seen the All Bran with Strawberries Bites commercial recently (the girl has some weird red hair sculpture) you may have liked the song. I did, so I did a search of lyrics and found out many others were looking for the song.

    Artist responded on adtunes:

    Hey folks. Sorry you think it's gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay that the All Bran song was made just for the ad. My name is Jason Gleed, and I wrote the All Bran song for Grayson Matthews (a very cool music company in Toronto). I am a songwriter myself, and so I try to support my songwriting by writing for ads. I always try to write the best song I can, no matter what it's for. For whatever reason, that cute All Bran commercial inspired that song- it may never have existed otherwise. I'm glad you all like it. I like it too, so I am going to see if I can make it longer, and available for download off either my site www.jasongleed.com or grayson matthew's site www.graysonmatthews.com I'll keep you posted.

    I'm not sure what I think of this new approach. I really like the song.

    Yumm, gravy. Hey, do you ever say anything there, or just a lookie-loo? I haven't been there for a long time, but you know turkey time is on the horizon so I had a hankerin' for some giblets. What are giblets again? Those aren't the same as mountain oysters, are they?

    When is your Turkey day? If you get sick of turkey there's nothing like a steaming plate of Rocky Mountain oysters to put hair on your chest and jingle your spurs! Mmmmmm...

    Happy trails...

    Oh, gonna play it coy, eh? How'll I get a clue if ya don't give me one? They don't grow on trees, ya know? Well, maybe they do for all I know, since I don't have one yet

    Turkeys go to heaven on the 4th Thursday of November, which is the 24th this year. Well, most of them go to heaven awhile before that, but we eat their souless carcasses on that day and give thanks that we live in God's Country where we can buy that 16 pound bag of salmonella infested fat, cholesterol, pesticides, growth hormones, and antibiotics for only $5.99 at the local supermarket chain. Yumm, starting to get hungry already. Man, I love America!

    Thanks, it's nice to feel kneaded. The Pillsbury Dough Boy is a roll model for millions. He rises above the rest.

    Hey, that's a cool attitude to have. Kudos to him.

    You liked the song, what does it matter the context?

    Hey, I like that ad/jingle. You think the cereal is any good?

    I haven't heard the jingle/seen the commercial. But the cereal is quite tasty. I forego the milk and just snack on it while watching TV. It's nice low fat, high fibre snack food. Beats a rice cake anyday.

    This would qualify as very faint praise around my house...

    Oh my god! Those look like wiener wrapped fingers! Take away the little smiles and replace with lots of bloody ketchup and we may have something for next year's halloween party.
