This post almost made more sense when I misread it as "Stuff I didn't get today"

very sad for lee's passing. Such a great songwriter, still a captivating performer in his last few years... I saw him and baby lemonade at the bowery a few years ago, it was a revelation. RIP.

Lee was in great form when Love opened for the Zombies at Town Hall a few years ago. He was cool till the end.

He died.

Nooooooo! They're gonna make Marr write jingles for SUV-buying soccer moms! The end is near!

is there an suv commercial that uses a modest mouse song? b/c i normally don't associate the two.

there is, for sure, a car commercial, i believe it's nissan, that uses a smiths song. ah! the end has passed!

They should use the chorus of "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" in a car commercial.
