That I kinda fell for it a little and found it affecting. Y'know, the little journey through nasty urban space; the blend of irony and sentiment in their anniversary ritual... If I'd liked the song I would've been in the shops as soon as they opened replacing my current Sony Ericsson. It's an interesting contrast with the 'CK IN2U' TV campaign that's started here in the UK, which is shiny, bogus and overcooked (That whole thing reeks of 'New Coke', IMHO). Anyway, maybe I'm too soft... The one thing that doesn't ring true: One mobile phone between two technosexuals (TM)? That's about three phones too few by my reckoning.
