That music is just *wrong*

Just saw an ad for Mr. Clean Eraser Sticks (vs. a regular sponge with cleaner of some sort, I gather). The music was … banjos. In a “Dueling” kind of duet. Not the actual song, thank god, but still … ew…

I don’t follow. Is it banjo music in general that you have trouble with, or is that particular banjo music in that context?

Granted, I haven’t seen the commercial.

It’s the evocation of “Dueling Banjos” – have you ever seen “Deliverance”?

Yeah, and I get the association in popular culture. However, the music for “Dueling Banjos” is very distinctive. Did they use that particular piece, or just one done in a reminiscent style? And is there some unpleasant connection between Mr. Clean and the music that makes it particularly skeevy or something?

Hmph. Guess it’s just me – big bald guy with a magic [del]wand[/del] eraser …

I work at Disney, and in a one of the area where people can meet characters, that song is played. There’s nothing we can do but laugh everytime we hear it.
