Never heard it before, and really dig it... Co-incidentally, I also became aware of this track a few days ago, via 6muisc catch up (Gid Coe)…… I thought it was really good too! I'm not good at picking up songs from ads, probably because I never got into the habit of using sham or googling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's one from a few years ago that I find myself singing quite regularly. Raging Speedhorn, I think it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casapete Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Must admit, I don't think I'd heard this before seeing it in the Mercedes advert. Just superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seashell Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Crusoe, that was the first song that sprang to mind when I saw this topic. Loved that ad! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geek99 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I’m quite liking the mock turtles on the o2 advert years back (the one with beckham sock puppet) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcnach Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Back when I was about 10 I heard a song in an advert for some jeans, back home in Spain. Two years later or so I found it was "Satisfaction". Well, a version of it by a Spanish band, just for the ad. I went to the record store and bought the first Rolling Stones I could find with that song in it. It was "Still Life", live album from 1981. I thought the Stones' version was crap, put the album away and ignored it for another 4 years or so. Now it's one of my favourite albums. Despite their version of Satisfaction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Stone Ponies featuring Linda Ronstadt and Different Drum Generally I'm of the opinion that ads ruin songs - I didn't know this song before hearing it on the telly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great tune, written by Mike Nesmith from The Monkees. Also has Bernie Leadon (The Eagles) on guitar too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was legit the first time I ever heard that song. This one, might be too tame for you all..but that Debenham's commercial got that song hook stuck in my brain, it just makes me feel happy.
