  • This is the famous ad that cost Microsoft $3 million to license one song, which is also the reason that this video will have a banner or pre-roll.

    Brilliant marketing campaign. Sold me. I bought Windows 95 around launch when I was 12 from the now defunct The Wiz. It was the introduction of the Start button, which was revolutionary at the time. But was the song included with Windows 95, does anyone know?

    I refer to my Windows operating system as "Bill" and when I'm about to power on the computer I often sing, "We've got to start Bill up, start Bill up, start Bill up, start Bill up..." sometimes I even do a little dance as "Bill" is powering up.
    How cool am I?

    I swear the Stones did not give this song for the commercial. In fact I have several detailed memories of Stones members explaining why they did NOT want this song as the windows theme... I also remember discussing this with a friend. Anyone with me? xD
