No idea, but it's another example of a commercial using a song for the
opposite meaning of the lyrics. First, there was the investment firm using
The Brains "Money Changes Everything", which is about how money can make
things worse in a relationship. Now, Devo's "Freedom of Choice" -- "Freedom
of choice is what you got/freedom from choice is what you want."
Makes me think of an old Bill Hicks' routine: "Anyone here in marketing or
advertising?" (Applause) "Kill yourselves." (Laughter) "No, I'm serious.
You contribute nothing to the world. Kill yourselves."
