I hope that The Mooney Suzuki control their publishing, because the sync fees for "Alive and Amplified" in the Suzuki Grand Vitara commercial must be nice. That commercial is on all the time!

Note that you can buy a compilation CD entitled "As Heard on TV 2", which includes "Alive and Ampified" as well as some other trendy songs from commercials, including The Dandy Warhols - "I Love You" (Pontiac Solstice), Ratatat - "Bustelo" (Jaguar), The Bravery - "Unconditional" (Saturn) and Goldfrapp - "Oh La La" (Diet Coke).

Diamond Nights' "The Girl's Attractive" is featured in a Jaguar ad. Swanky!

New Young Pony Club's "Ice Cream" is featured in a commercial for Intel.

Hello

This blog is to note and discuss "trendy" music that I have heard in commercials. So while we hear AC/DC's "Back in Black" in every commercial imaginable (including those horrifying Audrey Hepburn Gap ads), such music will not be mentioned here. I'm more interested in noting non-commercial music in commercials, such as Goldfrapp's "Strict Machine" in the commercials for LG's Chocolate phone.

Enjoy.
