OK Go unveil the greatest song you'll ever hear
Morgan Spurlock, the documentarian behind Super Size Me, has a new flick about product placement and advertising on the horizon called POM Wonderful Presents: The Greatest Movie Ever Sold. It looks pretty interesting and hilarious. Check out the trailer here.
But, as if anticipation for this film couldn't get any bigger, he's enlisted one of my favourite bands, OK Go, to write the movie's theme song.
So, here we have "The Greatest Song I Ever Heard", a standard OK Go anthem that you can't help but sing along with by the end.
While the song does share the film's bravado, the song isn't actually talking about itself. Damian Kulash and Tim Nordwind say the song is referencing Bob Dylan's plugged-in performance at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, and mid-60s Beatles songs.
The nostaligic good feeling soon turn bittersweet by the songs extro, where Damian repeats "We solved all our problems with bigger problems." So true.
Take a listen!
