Sesame Street 1, Apple 0
Think Apple is the coolest brand in the world? Well, it wouldn’t be a bad choice: the iPhone, the iPod, their Mac laptops (one of which I’m using to type this), the Apple stores, and of course all those cool ads. In fact, Apple is so cool that a song can become a hit just by appearing in one of their commercials. Feist is a good example: her song “1,2,3,4″ became a hit and got nominated for a Grammy in large part because of its appearance on an ad for the iPod nano.
But Feist is no dummy. She knows that there’s one brand that has the ability to kick Apple’s sorry little butt to the curb: Sesame Street.
The only question now is how long before this version shows up on iTunes….
