One of my favorite bands is The Stranglers. So, for no other reason, today’s videos are from the denizens of the rat-filled sewer, The Stranglers. Above you see the world-wide (except for the US) smash hit, “Golden Brown.” A few years ago Ore-Ida used this song in one of their commercials for frozen french fries. Then, when they found out that the song was about a particularly potent form of heroin, they pulled it and replaced it with a different song from the 80s.

After the jump, there’s more Stranglers fun!
