Sam Bernstein - "We Are Family"

Re the Sam Bernstein - "We Are Family" campaign -- I gotta admit, despite my usual loathing of the use of memorable pop songs in commercials, these ads which bounce on the edge of outright cheese are catchy, well-conceived, and well-executed.
Hell, they're even well-acted! :razz (Okay, maybe not, but consider what you're working with here.)

Contrast with Mike Morse and his mother. :x :barf

They’re still bad and sleazy, but not as much as Morse or Feiger.

Speaking of Morse he can’t be more than about 5’3”. Very short guy.

If they were pretty much anybody other than tv lawyers I would say this is horrible, but....

Did they get permission from Sister Sledge to use the song?

It was licensed.
