You Will Like, Totally Know Us By The Trail of, Like, Dead, And Stuff

Cosmogirl executive director of...wait, where are you going? Don't you dare scroll down! Don't you "whatever" me!

Anyway, Cosmogirl executive director of marketing Keith Gordon has written a song based on the magazine's slogan, "Born to Lead":

"I was born to lead my life my way/My independent voice will have its say."
The song was recorded by the Valli Girls and a video- soon to be available on Cosmogirl's web site- was directed by Tony Ushino, who also did the video for ...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead's "The Rest Will Follow". High gas prices spare no one, kids.

shit, my bad- I read this sentence from the WWD article: "recorded the song and producer Tony Ushino, who worked with the indie-rock act And You Shall Know Us By the Trail of Dead on their video for '"The Rest Will Follow,' directed the video"

...and got it wrong. I stand corrected.
