Here's a double double
A few years back (if a few Canadians recall) MacDonald's briefly used
the Brecht/Weil tune Mack the Knife as an advertising jingle -- seems
what it was really about slipped by them. Then, in a local paper, a
person wrote in decrying the fact that they had just ruined the
venerable classic of Bobby Darin's Mack the Knife!

To sadly counter that argument, I submit the girl who sang at an

solo/ensemble competition, Let's call the whole thing off. She sang

thusly:
You say to-may-toh and I say to-may-toh
You say poh-tay-toh and I say poh-tay-toh.
To-may-toh, to-may-toh, poh-tay-toh, poh-tay-toh,
Let's call the whole thing off...
Etc...
Maybe we could say good performers wouldn't perform without being
aware.
