Uhh, Say What?

Why is Kansas's song "Dust in the Wind" (And all your money won't another minute buy) being used in an automobile commercial?

Why is it being used in any commercial?

Then they have two pluses going for them; they have picked a song that most boomers remember fondly and, ergo, will actually listen to the commercial just to hear it, and they have managed to make a play on words. It still doesn't make me buy it (g).

Sometimes, though, a song I've never heard gets used in a commercial, and it drives me crazy until I can figure out what it is (if I like it, I mean). Remember my babbling, maybe Spring, a year ago? I finally found the song, got the CD...and never did watch the dog show (g)!
