I'm pretty sure that awful "love music" is a disturbing cover of "Let Me Call
You Sweetheart," a song that I would guess comes from early in the 20th
century. It sounds to me as if the singer is screaming, "Let me call you
sweetheart, I'm in love with you."
And speaking of "Meet the Beatles," oddly enough, the commercial ends with
the company's (Phillips?) latest jingle, which just happens to be a cover of
a Beatles tune from about 35 years ago -- "Got to Admit It's Getting Better."
WIth its sexy young couple and cool-looking apartment, this ad is much like
the current pop music/viideo scene: there's some nice stuff to look at, but
listening can be painful.
