Selling Out (Round 4)

Rock and roll and pop songs in advertising--it's a Tsunami.

Stevie Wonder--You Are the Sunshine of My Life---Zales Listen

Stevie Wonder--Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing--UPS Listen (Is Stevie hurting for money?)

Grand Funk Railroad--Some Kind of Wonderful--Kraft mayonnaise Listen (appropriate)

Pussycat Dolls--Don't Cha--Heineken Lite Listen (The answer to each question is 'yes').

Sam and Dave--Hold On, I'm Comin'--Savin Listen

Madness--Our House--Maxwell House coffee Listen

Deep Purple--Highway Star--Lincoln Navigator Listen (Smoke on the Water is for Ford Pintos, I guess)

Cars--Just What I Needed--Circuit City Listen

Allman Brothers--Melissa--Cingular/AT&T Wireless Listen (Not the Allman Brothers!)

Isley Brothers--It's Your Thing--Pier 1 Listen

Comments:
You missed Bloudhound Gang for Blaupunkt (or do they have that one over there?)

Note: Pussycat Dolls sold out before they even made a record. c
 
Not a lot of Blaupunkt advertising going on here. I remember the Bloodhound Gang as a children's TV show but have never heard the band.
I believe P Dolls are the worst sort of pop but I like that song for some reason.

the bloodhound gang sang that really annoying song that went like: "you and me baby, ain't nothin but mammals so lets do it like they do on the discovery channel"--I know you have heard it!

and yeah, boo for liking "Don't Cha", that song is horrid.
 
Yea, but they made up for it with this little ditty..

You've had a lot of d**k.....I've had a lot of time......You've had a lot of d**k, but you aint had mine.

Roger,

You like that song because you have a wild, party-in-the-club-with-the-ladies-all-night streak in you and you don't even know it.
