Lee's Album Released and "Sweet Serendipity" Ford ad, I mean Music Video

Yesterday, Lee DeWyze's debut album was officially released, but unfortunately not initially on iTunes! There appears to have been some technical difficulties earlier in the day which was not allowing people to download his album. Coincidentally his album was released the same day Apple announced they finally had the rights to sell all of the Beatles old music, so Apple was probably more concerned in getting all the Fab Four's music ready for download than the music of the latest winner of American Idol. Lee has also premiered the video for "Sweet Serendipity" on his own website (or YouTube, of course) and that looks like your typical VH1 "ah, isn't that sweet" kind of video. A cute girl and a cute guy (Lee, of course) get together at the end and walk off together. It definitely has its appeal, and should do well for him. I do love how the song says "I ain't got no car" but he appears to drive a very nice late model Ford Mustang in the video, and the girl has a red Mustang convertible. You could buy quite a few pairs of jeans with what you pay in insurance on those cars and they must be "doing just fine" to be able to afford them. Luckily her Mustang did have Microsoft Sync technology, so that makes it all worthwhile! Heaven forbid you have to touch a knob or button to listen to some music. I have decided to change the words to his song to make them more appropriate for the video:

I just got one car
A gas guzzling machine
I saw my State Farm bill
And now I'm weak at the knees
