This made the rounds last week but it just fell off our radar because, well, it doesn’t really have to do with advertising except that the director of this music video for Junkie XL, Glenn Cole, is partner and creative director at LA agency agency 72andSunny and the very very persistent PR person had some influence as well.

Oh, to connect the dots even more, the PR person tells us it’s a “cool ad story because the video’s director Glenn Cole and Junkie XL first hooked up together in 2002, when Glenn was a CD with Wieden+Kennedy Amsterdam and hired Junkie XL to remix the Elvis track ‘A Little Less Conversation’ for a Nike World Cup 2002 commercial. The two have remained friends and frequent collaborators ever since.” It’s all about who you know.
