But the commercial is just wrong, as is Nike. <br /><br />1987 was also the year my obsession with pizza started. I remember a lot of Max Headroom stuff, noticing how obnoxious food advertising had become & how truly weird food products had gotten, the Stock Market crashing, an extremely rainy August (remnants of a hurricane) and horseshit mullets some of my classmates were starting to wear, and of course, the new FOX network which basically felt like free cable television. Most importantly, I stayed mullet-free (made god damn sure of it, too). But the music was bad.Markhttp://www.www.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043052320137043563.post-3024505308654791032010-06-01T10:00:39.324-07:002010-06-01T10:00:39.324-07:00Don't forget the Beatles' shoe commercial....Don't forget the Beatles' shoe commercial. ;)Stuart A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16841927313842218715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043052320137043563.post-80822066381781018342010-05-27T09:52:27.479-07:002010-05-27T09:52:27.479-07:001987 was the year I began to rebel against popular...1987 was the year I began to rebel against popular music because "it was 'their music' of the generation older than me", and had discovered some 45's of the Beatles & Monkees in my house. I remember the Monkees were popular again around this time, and reruns were on all the time in syndication, and FOX even did a remake of the show. I recall Michael Jackson & Elton John doing Coca-Cola commercials, 'cause ya know, it's 1987 and it's all about money and selling out.Markhttp://www.www.comnoreply@blogger.com
