Velcro unleashed an unusual marketing move last year when it posted a video of "lawyers" singing a toe-tapping power ballad asking people not to misuse its trademarked Velcro brand name in reference to generic hook-and-loop fasteners. A lot of people found it amusing, but it also attracted a healthy crowd of comment trolls on YouTube and social sites Reddit and Twitter. 

Velcro's new video, titled "Thank You For Your Feedback - Don't Say Velcro," continues to show off the company's sense of humor and shrewd internet advertising chops. It turns some of the most vicious, expletive-laden comments into lyrics for an uptempo rock song.
