How do you sell Xbox to teenage boys?

Folk singers Emily and Matt set the copy of the commercial to John Denver's You Fill Up My Senses.
This is just one of the many spoofs out there paying homage to this Wieden + Kennedy-created commercial. When a commercial - yea, a lowly commercial - spawns this sort of viral love, you know you've got a hit on your hands.
