So, in case you didn’t know, the vocal-only track of Van Halen’s Runnin’ With the Devil is an internet joke. Which makes Acura’s use of the song in its Super Bowl commercial a wink that they understand the interwebs comedy too. In this spot the new $156,000 NSX comes to life from a hunk of metal, and unlike in the isolated vocal version we get to hear some Eddie Van Halen’s sweet guitar licks eventually. What’s that? You want a longer version? Here you go. Enjoy.
