I remember this 90s TV commercial for 93.7 The Edge, a Minnesota alternative radio station, very well. It features very non-alternative old people reciting lyrics like “bow down before the one you serve” and “Winona’s got herself a big brown beaver”. [youtube.com]

The nun in the background. The smile she has Also, just a whole series of spots like this, but the point is to get their reactions to reading the lyrics from, say, More Human Than Human, Hey Man Nice Shot, Possum Kingdom, Run Around, and of course, Lump.

I think this must have been one of those commercials they used for a bunch of stations around the country because I remember this commercial but don't live anywhere near MN.
