You know you’re old when you hear a great song from your youth being used in a commercial. The Violent Femmes song “Blister In The Sun” is being used in a new Wendy’s ad. I got onto the Femmes bandwagon a little late, around 1991 when I was 15 (moody teenagers like me just couldn’t resist “Add It Up”) but I’m still a little sad about such a cool little alternative rock diddy being used to sell sandwiches.

Hahaha…I hope that in the future we won’t be stuck listening to Britney Spears being used in future commercials.
