I know we talk a lot on this forum about how songs are used (or mis-used) for TV commercials and products, etc... But, have any of you seen that new Viagra commercial where all those middle-aged guys are jamming to "Viva Viagra" (Elvis' "Viva Las Vegas")...

What the........?????? :cross2: I mean, it's not even a good song parody! If you're going to make such a commercial, then at least use a song that works better!

My initial thoughts were Steve Miller's "Abracadabra".....

"It goes up, I won't go down
It's got me spinnin' 'round and 'round
Up, down, up and down it goes
When it will flop nobody knows.....

Abra-abra-Viagra..... she's gonna reach out and grab yuh!"

When I saw this thread tittle yesterday I came here thinking it was the usual daily Spam to be deleted... till I saw it came from our mister hofner bass :smile1:

That is some very creative songwriting you did :rock1:

How about Viva Las Vegas..from Elvis...

Very funny Hof, well done. I would have never thought of Steve's song as the theme, but it fits perfectly with a little massaging of the lyrics. :devious:
