You Mean It’s Really A Song?
By now, you’ve probably seen the commercial for Fruit of the Loom with country star Vince Gill. In the spot, he sings a few bars of a song with the Apple guy and their duet is interrupted by Grape guy’s cell phone.
It turns out, believe it or not, that they actually wrote a lot more than just twenty seconds worth of lyrics. Here, for your enjoyment (or torment), is the full two-and-a-half minute tune. Keep in mind as you listen to what is otherwise a beautiful melody that they’re singing about underwear!
No castle in the south of France,
but what we had were underpants
that made us feel like royalty…
I’d love to have seen the look on Vince Gill’s face when they first pitched this idea.
