Great shout

Horrible Horrible advert

Every week I'm in here moaning about great bands selling out to the corporate world of car advertising (and I don't include Paloma Faith as a great band/singer either)

This week I'm referring to Ray Davies and The Kinks allowing 'You really got me' to be used in a bloody KIA advert.

I hear that classic song and want to think of the swinging 60's, emerging fashions, Dapper Mods on scooters etc Not a fucking Korean budget car company

Any and all of the current McNasty's ads, referencing American culture. Where every other scene has them dressed in more and more Americana shite.

They're just cheesy as fuck (no pun intended), and a pile of steaming shite.

I share your pain/disgust. It's not even a re-working of a car from the era. I love the Kinks. Kia are pushing it if they think they can gain some reflected glory.

The first one with just the dog was original and quite funny (at first, obvs)

The second one with that fucking cheesehead is just shit. He looks like he's been choreographed by Louis Spence and is just dying to give it some jazz hands.

The Royal London one with the mutiny on the ship pisses me off.

"We at Royal London believe that if you've got a bit of wealth, it's better to share it around"

Is that why they 'shared' £3.5m (plus share options) with their CEO last year?

Any product advert that jumps on the back of he World Cup, and has a footballing theme, even though they'd never ever be associated with football at any other time. Just band waggon jumping twats.

Any yogurt advert with Nicole Scherzinger in it, wearing yogurt on the end of her nose.

Just fuck off will ya. It wasn't funny first time you did it. It's still not funny now you've done it to death for the 6 billionth time.

Ah Nicole.

BBC News Worldwide has advert breaks. Fair enough but she features in an advert for, I think, Emirates Airlines.

I haven't actually noticed who the advertiser is because the ex lap dancer is busily murdering "Dancing in the Street".

Fucking atrocious.

I worry for the country when I see the postcode lottery ads. I'd be surprised if some of them can spell lottery. Looks like they come from the village of the damned. And who are the "celebs" knocking the doors?

The one that is advertising Extra chewies or Airwave, anyway the one in which the parents knock on the daughters room and some beaut is in there with only a pair of bills. When he opens the bedroom door chewing away the girls arl fella grins his approval.

If that was my daughter I would string him up by his balls and chewing a minty fresh piece of gum isn't gonna save his scrawny arse at all.

Beagle Street Life insurance. Some sap doing the decorating and his girlfriend says "before you do that will you sort out your life insurance" He hasn't left her by the end of the advert. Knobhead.

Anyway the girl seemed to be the instigator, so my sympathies are with the gum chewer.

I agree the song is horrendous but reading about the artist Dan Johnston I'm kinda happy for him

Admittedly I've only read his Wiki page, but it looks like he's had some tough times and deserves this break. Originally knocked out his music on cassettes while working in Macca D's in the 80's.

He's probably made a nice shit ton of cash from this Apple gig so fair do's.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Johnston

Buck Pete · « **Reply #599 on:** June 27, 2018, 12:36:00 pm »

Actually, he's had songs covered by heavyweight artists such as Tom Waites and Beck. He's also had a film made about him too which does look very interesting indeed. So he's probably not short of a few bob and doesn't seem like the sort of character who would welcome or desire a load of money anyway.

Appears the burning question is - Is Dan Johnston a good musician or just a victim of Hipster exploitation?

(I'm leaning toward to latter on first impressions)
