I am supposed to waive the white flag on the fight of any musician who sells their music and works for commercials. The industry doesn't work the way it used to, and most of them do it. Everything is for sale no matter what it means to you. It is for sale as well.
Beck decided to sell a cover version of Neil Young's "Old Man" to NBC for a Sunday Night football promo for next week's Chiefs-Bucs game. Is appearing something? Beck hasn't released an album that anyone could generate any emotion about in 10 years, but is the desperation to remain relevant that strong? Two million copies of "Odelay" were sold back in the day. Money can't have run out.
Shouldn't it have been obvious when Neil Young couldn't perform his own song? Beck is a scientologist and he doesn't like football. He tried to keep his name in the news by appearing on stage with Taylor Swift. Maybe in his later years, he became a bug.
Beck is in an ad for football singing a song that isn't his and trying to look like he's in his break dancing days. It is similar to having one of your kids telling you about a drawing at the end of a game. Everything is off and weird and stupid now that this doesn't go here anymore.
Maybe it's over. Let it go. It's when you can do anything. It doesn't mean doing NBC commercials.
The most obvious red card in soccer history was given to the Chicago Red Stars' Bianca St. Georges, when she tossed the fourth official with the twin spires.
Don't get thrown out if you're going to. People will talk about it when you go down.
