Sunday Morning Subtle But Obvious Organized Self Abuse Swim Club

I have a lot of memories, I seem to not be able to shut up the monkey mind, I over analyze. I now get to do all that while learning to type.

AM earworm 2 mornings running, It’s A Beautiful World - DEVO

I assume (perhaps incorrectly) that you may have seen or heard of the target commercial that uses this song for its soundtrack. Of course they carefully avoid the line "Its not for me". My question is, did The folks at Target realize what the song is about or did the ad agency pull a quick one? A follow up question, What was Mark Mothersbaugh's reaction when they called to get rights cleared? Did he giggle? Did he shake his head? Did he snicker all the way to the bank? Did he think it was still more proof that we're all devo? Thoughts like this trouble me. I just can't put them down.

Mark Mothersbaugh is making HUGE bank everywhere you turn. Congrats to him I suppose. (She sniffs jealously).
