The commercial is for Red Bull! It's awful!! Sysyphus kidknapped someone that had something to do with death. He did this to try to cheat death. So he was punished. His punishment was to continually push a stone up a hill. When he reached the top. The stone would fall to the bottom again and he'd start over. I think the song portrays this well.
Wait, if all Greek mythology was created to explain and moralize the mind of men, and it's at the same time the genesis of both the subconcious and conscious mind of the modern man, then what does this myth mean in our modern wolrd?
That we're all a bunch of stupid gits doomed to perform the same boring, pointless job over and over again, unless we...do something about it or whatever?
Is that it? Or am i just rambling? Have I been to too many Art History classes, oh, God, why???

God! Those greek punishments were stupid then! Nowadays man would try once to push it to the top and if the stone would roll down again, he would escape, or at least ring to his friend with his new Nokia 7650 camera/cell phone and his friends would come with a van and and tools and....................T......H....E...........E...N...........D........
