Dreams come true

I like that new iPod Touch commercial with the song that goes, "Music is my Boyfriend" so I googled it to see who the artist was ("Music is My Hot Hot Sex" by CSS if you're interested). Well, I learned that the commercial was made by an 18-year-old college student who just made up a commercial using Final Cut Pro and uploaded it to YouTube. He really liked the lyric "my music is where I'd like you to touch" and it reminded him of the iPod Touch concept, so he made a commercial for the hell of it. A little while later, some Apple advertising people got in touch with him and made it into a real commercial - and not much different than his original version.

On top is Nick Haley's original video and on the bottom is Apple's TV cut. It's pretty cool that "normal" people can be tapped to do big things!
