Hello, Hello....Hola!

Do you remember those ipod commercials from years ago where people would be dancing with bright colored backgrounds? Well, U2 had one of those commercials for their song Vertigo, and it is by all means the coolest commercial I've ever seen. Of course there are funnier commericals out there, but nothing spells rock like U2 to me, so nothing can compare to the sheer coolness it produces.

In fact the commercial was so plainly awesome that I wonder if it was the overriding factor to Apple's success for the past 5 years. My theory is that U2's coolness rubbed off on the company in that commercial, and Apple has thus been cool ever since. So Steve, better be thanking Bono your success. Check out the graph below of Apple's stock value, the star show's when U2's commercial debuted. I think the numbers speak for themselves.

Happy St. Patrick's day!
