OK, sometimes I shake my head at the choice of English words in a Korean commercial, but this takes the cake...
I just heard the following lyrics in a Xii commercial for "well being" or "better life" I suppose...
I have a mandolin
I play it all night long
It makes me want to kill myself...
Uh.....

That's a line from a Magnetic Fields song, 100,000 Fireflies. Great song.
Not exactly cheery though,
You wont be happy with me
But give me one more chance
You wont be happy anyway |
