Did the post title get your attention?
(Imagine the searches that are going to come off of that!!)
I already know (for the most part) the answer to that question-
trust me, I hear it
a lot.
One thing that adds to my weirdness-
Do you have playlist like that?
It is full of songs that I have heard in commercials that get stuck in my head.
And I have to hear all of it because i feel like I am missing something if I don't.
And 9 times out of 10, I end up really liking it.
So I end up in iTunes and it ends up on my playlist.
Is that weird?
Most of the time, people fast foward through the commercials with DVRs.
We have a DVR- I would be lost without that
but when I am alone and I know The Mr won't blow a gasket, I watch them.
It's not a secret either- because we play "Guess what commercial this is from" in the van all the time!!
Each little snippet is 20-30 secs long. You'll recognize several of them!
This is the song that started it all for me. I heard this one back in April or May of last year- You can "feel" the inspiration in this song.
Smidi- Honda commercial
Keep going...
many of these were very popular from the commercial first- then went to radio!
Alex Clare- Internet Explorer
Kishi Bashi- Bright Whites- Windows 8 commercial
Jose Gonzalez- Sony Commerical
Lenka- Crate and Barrel commercial
Yael Naim- MacBook Air commercial (the song I used in the "snow dance")
KidStreet- Mac Book Pro Commercial- another instrumental- great to listen to while I'm walking
(I love to sing this one to The Mr.)
Various Cruelties- Zales Commercial
Tim McMorris- Sam Adams Commercial
Jasime Ash- Ferrero Rocher Commercial
and finally- I probably wouldn't like this song if there were people in the commercial- but I LOVE THIS DOG!!!
Ray Lamontage- Travelers Commercial
Check back later this week for some great activities from the class.
For now, I am going to go soak my feet- today I was "inspired" a little too much to walk a little farther than my feet were comfortable carrying me:)
Have a Great Day tomorrow!!

Alex Clare and Tim McMorris are my fav's on the commercial music front.... Although, I must admit, I didn't know this was a "thing". Haha...

Ok I admit, I'll sometimes write down a lyric or google the ad to find out the song from commercials. I guess that makes me kinda weird too!

My husband has this "thing" with commerical music as well, only he gets me involved in the google searching and itunes searching, and we can't rest till we find the song! Thanks for this post, it made me giggle and I'm heading home to share it with the hubby!
ReplyDeleteSo funny! My hubby and I were playing "name that tune" the other day with songs on my phone. Now we get to play "name that commercial"!
