» 5 comments

Well this is certainly something you don’t see every day. Former Florida Governor Charlie Crist has recorded a no-nonsense video apologizing to Talking Head’s front man David Byrne for the unlicensed use of the song “Road To Nowhere” during his Senate run of last year. Byrne and his team of lawyers reportedly forced Crist into taping this apology as part of a settlement in the copyright lawsuit.

  • Barack Must Go

    Typical Obama democrat. He cannot even give a heart felt ( court ordered ) apology for stealing from another without reciting it verbatim from a telepromptor.

    Whenever YOU libs are confused as to the difference between the sencerity / truthfulness of a ” real ” American, just refer to this disgusting display of all that’s wrong with the morally bankrupt ‘ true party of NO and Obama “.

  • BatBoy

    Charlie created many more problems for himself than using a song without permission.

    I suspect the day of the RINO is pretty much over.

    The singing/talking “heads” was a ‘re-run’ on british TV – when we ‘visited’ London – it was the BEST – being “offered”!
