Pierrot Lunaire is awful. Must be the worst music ever.

The twelve-tone commercial was done a long time ago, maybe in the 70's, by Robert Conrad who was the announcer for WCLV, Cleveland's classical music radio station.  Now he is the executive director of the station.  This is a late night joke turned cult classic.
