used in a tampon commercial.

Wow. I missed so many of them. For once I regret just a little that I
watch so little television, and the year where I didn't bother owning
one. I think there was a David J song in a starburst commercial as
well, and an Echo and the Bunnymen song in the new "13 going on 30" ad
(which, I must add, is a real crime).

and I remember andrew wk
in a target advert, faux bobby
that's the only other commercial
that pops in my mind.

and Go! seems to pop up in various
commercials from time to time, not
just the Dockers. I think the last
time I heard Go! anywhere was at the
memorial day 2002 The Motherfucker.


and speaking of David J, have you heard
his new CD Estranged? I know he completed
it long ago - and now see that it's finally
available (well has been for a few months).

Noisex had a track in a Cadalac commercial. About 3 years. I thought my ears
where fooling me.

Ladytron had a song in a target commecial.

And Aphex Twin had a track off one of his Ambient works albums on some
investment companies commercial.

Has Psychic TV's "Royal P" in a Volkswagon commercial from the mid-90's been
mentioned yet?

yeah, it was in the first post in this thread, and it's called 'Roman
P', because the song is about Roman Polanski, particularly in the
context of the fact that he was at one point married to Sharon Tate

Not quite the same... But I recal on the 16volt.com forums, one day a guy was
like hey... I do music for television.. and we were all like suuurrree... and
he was like well.. I just thought you would all be interested that im going to
play chemlab during monday night football.

And he did. They used the ambient intro from Jesus Christ Porno Star as a bed,
and used the intro + first few rocking bars as a liner when going to
commercials.

It was neat.
