    I see that "Autopilot" is marked as the 'most replayed' part of the video... wonder if that has anything to do with the bit of silence making people think their internet connection glitched, and rewinding to check. 🤪

That cover art really has me appreciating being a baldo chrome dome now, but my dude in the lower left corner just needs to cut it like 2 inches above the ears all the way around and pop those bangs up into arches with a comb and hair spray and he's me in high school. Yup it's pretty ok being bald!

    This is the only case I'm aware of where a company decided to advertise itself by essentially sponsoring music videos for a band, sometimes seemingly only related to the product by a tagline that stretches the songs meanings like rubber bands to make them about coffee. And the campaign ran long enough to produce over 18 minutes of music!!! That, to me, really speaks loudly about the appeal and versatility of They Might Be Giants' music. It's a real Human Interest Story.

      @@GamesForNoobs These songs were all made for Dunkin Donuts for their "America runs on Dunkin" ad campaign. The ads are on UA-cam and worth watching. They're basically short music videos that end with the narrator tying the video to coffee with a segue referencing the lyrics. Something like, "don't have an 'Alarm Clock Catastrophe...'" or "Feel recharged - even after an 'All Night Blow-out!'" (Not exact quotes but you get it.)
