Advert Music

Cpt.Fantastic:
Wow, the music in the Vauxhall Astra Sport Hatch commercial is awesome, does anyone know what it is?

Has anyone else got favourite 'advert music'. Please, do tell.

a pack of wolves:
Good songs on adverts infuriate me, hearing a little snatch of a song over and over can really ruin it. I heard they're using Nervous Breakdown for some car or something these days. Makes me damn glad I don't have a TV (and that they didn't choose Clocked In or Jealous Again, because then people would have had to have been killed).

dave86:
I agrees. The BBC uses part of Here Comes Your Man on their Saturday sports show, it just sounds wrong.
Worse than that is songs that get popular BECAUSE of being in ads. The worst of these was Bohemian Like You, which was played non-stop everywhere for weeks because of a bloody Vodafone ad.

LightThievesAll:
A few years ago there was a Buzzcocks tune in a car commercial.  I found that pretty interesting.

Currently there's a pretty amusing Volkswagen ad with a yuppie and a bunch of executives in a Jetta.  One of the executives goes to turn on the radio, the yuppie tries to stop him, and suddenly some furious music blasts out of the speakers (I don't remember exactly what it sounded like, there may have been a blast beat, I can't be sure).  I chuckled.

And Black Flag in a fucking car commercial?  Why the fuck would Greg Ginn sign off on something like that?  That's wrong for so, so, so many reasons.

YES, it ruins it.

Also, you see stupid 'kiddies' going around with decent songs on their ipods and when you say
'woah, i didnt know you were into that band'
they'll just say
'Who? , I just heard it on that BMW advert'

Makes me angry't does.
