Hmm, interesting.

Another of the bands I follow and am a fan of (They Might Be Giants) 
have had their song Twisting well and truly ripped off by Pizza Hut for 
the current UK ad campaign.

I do wonder what they will be doing about it, especially as they are set 
to release a single, new album and do a gig over here this year.
