The commercial uses the Tina Turner song "Simply the Best."
A brilliant song, using the innovative rhyme,
"You're the best / better than the rest",
Tina Turner's dopey "Simply the Best" has been used by
cruise lines and roofers alike, all claiming to be the best.
Give it a rest.

Used in Hillary's campaign, most notably during her non-concession speech in NYC,
the night the numbers tipped irrevocably toward Obama!

Couldn't agree more, My Friend.
Insight from a simpleton:
Why must we depend upon the (unintended) words of others to get our message across?
Don't we have our OWN words?
"C'mon now...say the words..."
If it was written for the purpose intended, well...o.k. then!
Otherwise...
Lame and lazy - and you don't get my vote, much less my attention, for that.

I never liked that song that much anyway but they really made me hate it when they started using it for commercialsAngry
