May. 28th, 2007 03:02 pmHi, I'm fairly new to the community and I just wanted to share something I found interesting. I heard part of a rock version of "You Are My Sunshine (my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey...)" as the background music of a car commercial today, and noticed that the tune of the "you are my" part is basically the same as the chorus of A-Ra-Shi, so similar in fact that I starting singing "You are my soul! Soul! Itsumo sugu soba ni aru" before I realized there was no way an American commercial would play Arashi music. Has anyone else noticed this? This may just be proof that Arashi has fully devoured my brain, haha.

Hahaha. So funny. I thought we were the only ones to notice it. ^^
