Awesome. I just saw that commercial for the first time and found this within 30 seconds. What did we do before Internet? I'd still be going nuts.

I don't know about crappy recent covers, but I know it was done by Huey Lewis, and some artist way before that.  And I recognized it immediately from the commercial.
