Like the next big, commercial-makes-it-a-top-40-hit song, and it was a perfectly fine song to begin with even! What song is ripe for the plucking?

"Transmission".. It could sell cars

some weird part of me keeps wanting them to use Broadcast songs in car adverts - it would have to be 'Message From Home' or 'Illumination', for the new Peugeot saloon or something. it would never get them a top 40 hit though.

Ils' 'Music' will probably do better than it would've as it's currently being used in an advert (I forget which product), the guitar riff is simple but memorable

I wish Neil Michael Hagerty's "Car Commercial"!

Any song off of Manitoba's Up In Flames owns this thread!!

after an out-of-print Swell Maps song was used for Toyota, I can't even begin to predict what will come next.

I would've suggested Goldfrapp eg "Strict Machine", if I hadn't just read that it's already been nabbed by Siemens for their next ad. There goes (some more of) the neighbourhood.
