What the?
Update: Arcade Fire licensed their song for a Haiti Charity. Phew! Street cred restored.
Arcade Fire’s “Wake Up” in an NFL commercial(s) {and played during commentary}? Okay? And now Grizzly Bear’s “Two Weeks” in an, admittedly funny, VW commercial? During the Super Bowl?? I don’t know if I’m comfortable having my hipster music convoluted with pro-sports media just yet. What’s next? The Shins in a McDonald’s commercial? Oh, wait…

Good to know I wasn’t the only one confused!

Ha, I know, right? And then there was the {albeit, cute} Kia Serrento commercial with “How You Like Me Know” by The Heavy. This year’s SB “playlist” was a far cry from years previous, no? I don’t think I heard one {!} BEP song or anything by a country musician.
