Hey, what ever happened with that?  Was it re-pressed (or was it repressed)?  I had pre-ordered it, so I assume I got the "wrong" mix... CCM never notified me, so I still have it, along with my copy of the original (German?) CD version. Did the "right" mix come out on CCM eventually, and if so, was it yet a third mastering of the album, or was it identical to the original CD (as their version of "Flash Light" was exactly the same as the IRS version)?

Part of me truly believes we will see something like this... commercials using hip-yet-obscure tunes have become immensely popular (pretty much since the "Pink Moon" VW spot); they seem to add a sort of street-cred, water-cooler "what's that song" cachet to the ads.  Entertainment Weekly even has a column telling you what songs are used in what commercials, and there's at least on compilation of such tunes.  My guess is we'll never hear Tom's vocal, but I wouldn't be surprised to hear the riff to "MM" or "See No Evil" accompanying an aerial shot of an Audi or something tearing down PCH.  Unless Tom stringently disappoves (and I don't even know if he owns the recordings)...
