I bless the rains down in Africa ?

This had been something that amused me for some time, but I neglected to quip about on my journal. Back home, almost every public bathroom is equipped with fixtures from the same company. A typical example would be "Crane". Their toilets are in nearly every American public establishment, along with Kimball-Johnson toilet paper dispensers.

In Japan, every toilet I have seen, every sink I have seen always read these four letters:

Toto.

And every time I notice that, all I can hear is "Africa" by the band of the same name.

...Apparently when the band hit Japan, there was confusion as to why they named themselves after the biggest toilet manufacturer. Maybe because they knew their songs were poo...?
