Actually, there was quite a bit of debate about commercial use of music in the comments for Feist's 1-2-3-4.

But I think anyone who bitches about musicians "selling out" when their work is used in an ad doesn't understand the first thing about how hard it is to make ends meet as an artist.  Personally, I don't care if the song is about the virtues of Veganism and they're using it in a McDonald's commercial.  Some folks may have the luxury to pick and choose their jobs, but most of us still have to pay our bills, buy groceries, pay for our own health care, etc.  I know our studio is more concerned about a client's check clearing than about their politics.

Yes. Finally broke down and bought it, and it is solid good fun. Be careful with his other stuff, he has done other discs in this vein but others...ugh. Headache music.

Sounds like this may have been an influence on The Real Tuesday Weld. Quite happenin'.

And kudos to WonderLIzard for finely composed thought below.

And how many of us would know "At Last" by Etta James   if Jaguar hadn't used it in their commercial some years back? I sure wouldn't have, and I would have been so much the poorer for it. We don't need to be limited by labels or source—appreciate it for what IT is. 

 
 
Here, here...or "hear, hear." If hearing a song used commercially motivates a consumer to (1) find out what the recording is and by whom and (2) go buy the MP3 or CD, then I think the artist has achieved his objective. From my POV, Lincoln advertised "Right Now" as much as "Right Now" advertised Lincoln. And "Right Now" will be a living, breathing work of art long after whatever Lincoln it was shilling is languishing in some rust heap. BTW, one would think that a piece of music that would so motivate a consumer to go to all that work would have to be pretty good, yes?

Not to put too fine a point on it, but I don't hear these objections when the Caesars' "Jerk It Out" or Feist's "1-2-3-4" adorned iPod commercials. Arguably, it was the commercial exposure that made the Caesars' Paper Tigers a huge hit.

I actually enjoy it when a commercial or TV show introduces me to a cool piece of music.  I wish it would happen more often.  Overplay, however, can kill a song no matter how good it is.  I think by now, I've learned to hit mute or leave the room if I don't want to be overplayed to death.

Sorry, I have to disagree with you there, for two reasons. (1) There are a lot of very cool tracks appearing in ads. Why should Bill limit his playlist, and our enjoyment, simply because some advertising art director also has good taste in music? (2) If you are so bothered by this, perhaps you're listening to or watching too much commerical media. I for one had never heard this track anywhere but RP. Perhaps getting a TiVo and skipping through commercials, would help you as it has me.
 
spot on.

RP prides itself on being commercial free, and rightfully so.  Its my haven from such a world.
And then, all of a sudden I hear an ad for Lincoln {#Sad}.
With so much wonderful music to choose from, why in the world play anything that shows up in mass-media commercials.

Please Bill, draw the line a little broader.
 
Since I don't watch TV, I have only heard this here.  Should we be denied?   Nope.
