How disappointing. I thought it was going to be a charity but a Smiths song advertising John Lewis! The Sex Pistols will be selling butter next - or flogging dead horses. I can't believe it, Snot Butter!

Butter should be flogged accompanied by Gang Of Four's "Guns Before Butter"
"A,B&E", "Not In My Name" and "52FF" (flash fiction anthology) all available on Amazon Kindle

Excellent track. Never heard it before. I do have G of Fs debut 7" but not the album. I have been wondering what to squander my Beck's free downloads on. Shame the Nazis chose not to get fat.

I'm flooding my kids with this ad at the moment. Never know, it might work.

You do know that John Lydon did do a butter advert-Golden Chunder or some such thing-this is almost, but not quite, as depressing as Iggy Pop doing that insurance ad.

Yeah, there'll be accoustic versions of Motorhead songs selling beer before you know it. Madness!

(Madness) Yes, they've done something as well, can't remember what it was for (a waste of money then if I can't remember the product). I seem to remember that Lemmy from Motorhead has been in an advert-a while back now.

Thank god Kate Bush has always maintained her integrity & not sold her soul like that.

Yeah, Country Life. The ideals of youth never last it seems. Now Lydon's everyone's favourite granny.
