Ring of Fire: Not for Preparation H

Posted 02.16.2004 by Dave
Hooray for integrity! After some recent news stories that Johnny Cash's song Ring of Fire is being considered for use in a Preparation H commercial, the late singer's family sets the record straight. Thanks to Jennifer for sending this in!
==================

Rosanne Cash says she and her siblings were livid when she heard her father's hit Ring of Fire might be used for a Preparation H commercial.

"There is no way we will ever let that happen," Rosanne said during a phone call Friday. "We would never allow the song to be demeaned like that."

The Johnny Cash hit was written by his wife, June Carter Cash, and Merle Kilgore, who now is Hank Williams Jr.'s manager. Both Johnny and June died in 2003. Last month, a Florida TV production company approached Merle about using Ring of Fire for a commercial for hemorrhoid ointments.

It looks like Ring of Fire, didn't italicise.

I think the song would have been very fitting for hemmorhoid medicine commercial.

On the other hand, the timing that this commercial was to come out, was very bad for the Cash family, who had lost both of their parents in the same year.

I personally believe the song is more appropriate for a Taco Bell ad. It wasn't long ago that Taco Bell issued an April 1 press release saying they had bought the Liberty Bell and were renaming it the Liberty Taco Bell. Sounds like they have some real scamps running the show over there. If the song is not available, they can probably get the Elvis estate to license "Hunka Hunka Burnin' Love."
