The Orb was used for the new Beetle. Leftfield was used for beer. Moby was used for jewelery. Iggy Pop was used for another car. Lenny Kravitz was used for a goddamm SUV. Groove Armada was used for another goddamm SUV. That's all I know. The rest were proabaly used for goddamm SUVs as well...=]'

Hooverphonic was a VW beetle as was "Pink Moon," and Christy mentioned the Orb. Groove Armada some other car company. Gus Gus, again a car commercial (that one hurt). Wyclef, a soft drink company. Iggy Pop, Mitsubishi (which now I think of it, I think was the company with Gus Gus and Groove Armada). Leftfield's "Phat Planet" is the theme to Transformers Beast Machines (which is cool, cool, cool). This is a great mix, but sad 'cause it's kind of crass the way companies do this and also 'cause obviously the ads are fairly insidious if we can place the songs with the commericials so easily. Eesh.

How about a mix of previously released tracks that became the theme tracks to TV shows, i.e. the Leftfield track & Transformers, R.E.M.'s "Stand" and Get a Life, etc.

I am alternately compelled and frightened by this mix. gawd damn SUVs is right...

This is quite a specific thing lately... commercial fans, and i found ummm www.adcritic.com which seems to try to get the songs for every commercial they get. Just a note.

i don't see why it's all that bad, really. i mean, i'd rather sit through commercials for cars i can't afford if they're playing hooverphonic than if they're not playing much of anything worthwhile. i don't know.
