Posted: 10/2/13 at 11:05pmIs Jim Steinman in the poor house? A commercial for Fiber One bars uses "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" but changes the lyrics. Is Jim that desperate for the cash?

Mister Steinman is probably doing quite nicely, thank you. However he was probably offered a buttful of money to use the song.
He has mortgages, tuitions and bills from Mastercard like all of us. Granted his bills are probably larger than ours.
No one really looks a gift horse in the mouth.

Posted: 10/3/13 at 1:59pmIsn't this pretty common these days? I remember in the 80s people would scream over using "Revolution" in a Nike commercial, now they sell the songs to advertisers before they even hit the radio.
