Sick of Life

"Sick of Life" is a song by American rock band Godsmack. It is the opening track of the band's second studio album, Awake.

"Accelerate Your Life" commercials

In one of the recruitment advertisements, the beginning of "Sick of Life" plays in the background while scenes showing men dropping out of helicopters and scuba diving are juxtaposed with the image of a civilian's mundane life. The voice goes "And to think, somewhere, some poor guy is buying a mini van". Godsmack frontman Sully Erna told ArthurMag.com about the use of "Sick of Life" in U.S. Navy commercials:

War support

However, Erna insists that Godsmack does not support any war:
Some critics say that the band's young audience will now be influenced to join the military because of the popular tunes. However, Erna doubts very seriously that a kid is going to join the Marines or the US Navy because he heard Godsmack as the underlying bed music in the commercial.
