so i was watching tv late at night, and a luvs commercial came on, using the song "all you need is love". outrageous! that song was not about diapers, it was written in the height of the counterculture age. it means so much more than keeping some rug rat's ass clean! any body else outraged? it's sad...our culture is becoming commercialized.
yea, i know. but paul mccartney gave him the idea to buy the music. i get the feeling paul wasn't the brightest beatle in the bunch.
Haha, BECAUSE HE'S NOT THE REAL PAUL. Paul is dead!! I love to throw that conspiracy in to random conversations about the Beatles. But, yeah, I definitely agree with you. I forget what it was advertising but a commercial was playing a Doors song and I realized that it was shitty how everything is being taken over so easily. But, on the other hand, I don't know that because it's on a commercial, doesn't mean that the depth and beauty of a song is truly changed. But it is sad.
haha! of course! it all makes sense now!! reminds me of that episode of robot chicken when those aliens capture the real micheal jackson and replace him with a white one and about the doors...that is sad because jim morrison always said he didn't want his music on commercials. i guess nothing is sacred in society
I think Jackson's holding company bought the Lennon-McCartney catalogue. I know Northern Songs was separate.
yep you're right. thank god he doesn't own all of them. my faveorite song from oaisis is now on a, well all of the at&t commercials. now i can't stand that song.
Some Who songs get used in commerials too, but that was Pete Townshend's intention all long. It just took many years to find advertisers willing to pay the price.
its not the only beatles songs on commericals i have seen the loves ones but what about the damn target ones that have hello goodbyw in them does anyone else get pissed over that? john would be rolling in his grave right now if he knew what has happened to his music i have seen a traveling commerical with anytime at all in it and a cellular commerical with imagine in it can you guys believe this shit?! my country went to war and all i got was expensive gasoline!
