That ad is so effective that it almost makes me forget that I hate American football.

It also makes me realize that I don't look at the official site nearly often enough.
You must really check out Australian Rules Football, LLL

There will be such an overwhelmingly positive response to the ad Mr C that All Kinds of Time will be released as a single, and will become the
band's second big hit from Welcome Interstate Managers.
(I hope).
I don`t remember, I don`t recall
I got no memory of anything at all......

my favorite sport to play, so...that's gotta be worth something...but probably not...

Mr C used to be indecisive, but now he's not so sure.

It's all about the recognition! It took them a while to get going, not being too well known until their third album with Stacey's Mom...
now that they are on a roll, there's no stopping them! Now all we have to do is see what other songs are used and enjoy!

They are everywhere - TV Shows, movies, NFL Ads.............
I think All Kinds of Time would make a fabulous single, the NFL thing could be just the impetus for it to happen.

Single Release
This commercial is the only thing good on American television with the exception of The Simpsons and Skinemax.

Call me cynical, but I bet they've already pressed up thousands of promos and sent them to radio stations. The only reason they would do b-sides
is if the single was to be released in Europe, and as nobody outside the States has a clue what all that American Football is lark is all about, I
can't really see it happening.
On a side issue, I also don't really ever check the official site anymore. It never changes! This site is all you need for Fountains of Wayne
News..well done Eric!

It wouldn't surprise me if the band members themselves checked out Fountains of Wayne.us for the latest news too.
