I saw it on TV, but it’s also online here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68CnsqpQ O38 Might lead to some Go-Betweens record sales, hopefully.

OMG. It's very nicely done and it gives wonderful honor to Oz' own creative glory, but OH does it make me feel extra old! My heroes are flogging car insurance! Imagine what Lindy would have thought in 1981 if somebody had been able to take her through a time machine to see this. I'm happy to see her get the recognition and the cash.

Interview with Lindy as part of the insurance ad, over a bed of very Go-Betweensy music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icOQLdMs wNU&t=150s She talks about the portrayal of older people in the media and how much she loves drumming. It's very nice.

Somehow I missed this when you posted it originally. What a cool ad. It's really nicely done. The fact that anyone thinks that anything Go-Betweens-related is remotely bankable is kind of astonishing, tho. Especially from a stateside perspective.
