Oh, DEAR God, this is icepicks-in-both-ears horrible!! I had to watch the video, since you did go through the trouble of finding it, in all its quick-cut, "hey look, here's a metaphor! A visual metaphor!!!" film-school glory...and when this wannabe, drugged-looking youngster dragged the chair around the trees, I was wondering, what the hell is this? Did she bring a rope along also, with thoughts of putting herself out of her misery? No such luck. She lives another day, to warble another ruination of a classic song. |

...I'm thinking she/it may have a future working with the Japanese Tourism Board. She could sing songs and attract visitors to Aokigahara Forest, doncha know...

She can't lose. It only cost about ten bucks to make that video. Anything she make off of it is 100 percent profit.

I'm still trying to figure out what rocket scientist told this roach scrotum she had any talent.

Ah, that's where you're mistaken !! Actual talent doesn't matter anymore. (Evidence: today's top-40 charts!) There are three distinct impressions this leaves: 1) Voice? Instantly forgettable. 2) She's anemic and probably needs more iron in her diet. 3) Speaking of diet, chubby-cheeks could do with fewer Ho-Ho's and Ding-Dongs. |

I saw the original U of P commercial just a little while ago, I thought they made a new one with the same terrible singing. I couldn't find a new one.
Let's go back in time people...(1939) What a great musical composition! Even children today love it.

University of Phoenix Tries to Hush Haters With a Wry Rendition of 'If I Only Had a Brain' Beleaguered school attempts to change the conversationBy Gabriel Beltrone
After a brutal few years, the University of Phoenix is ready to rise from the ashes.
The largely online, for-profit school is trying to turn its struggling business around—while fighting negative perceptions of its programs—with a glossy ad blitz, one of its historic strengths. The centerpiece TV ad in the campaign, from 180LA, repurposes the classic Wizard of Oz tune "If I Only Had a Brain" (originally performed by an incredibly goofy scarecrow). The school's version, "More Than Brains," is a paean to the perseverance and intelligence of its students. |

One of my favorite covers (in case you've never heard of Tuck Andress). At about 2:30, you have to remind yourself this is solo guitar. Ditto for his cover of "Man in the Mirror". |

It's back on commercial rotation. I guess, it really wants to be the worst of 2016 for commercials. And I guess the diploma mill figures now that the hipster's/millennial candidate Hillary the Cow lost the election a lot of them may flock to this diploma mill to get another piece of paper. They are getting tired of living in mommy and daddy's basement. I wouldn't be surprised if Crapper Apple brings back I'm Living the Life of Dreams commercial.

Here she is in all her hipsterette/millennial mediocrity glory. She looks like she could use a shower or bath. Probably warbling in protest that her main man Bernie flamed out. If she gets traction on her career, she'll probably get an agent, lawyer and tart herself up to appeal to the masses.

On some girls, they look hot. This hipsterette warbler has a nice body but butterface and she looks like her last shower was accompanied by thunder and lightening!

Ah, I see what's going on here! I think they're trying to create a neo-1970s vibe like the old now faded photographs of the singers on vinyl! Sadly it's hipsters it's what they do!

I would love to see him playing live, in a video. Is that some sort of special 12 string or double neck guitar?
