I just puked

I felt the way you do until I believe it was the Gap or Old Navy can't
remember which used a Donovan song Mellow Yellow in an ad. I work
around 900 or more kids and they really picked up on the song and
wanted to hear more by him. I saw the otherwise "sellout" bring this
great music to more ears that otherwise would have never heard it. I
look at it a little different now.
I also heard Graham Nash comment on selling a song right to either
Teach Your Children or Our House - (it's been awhile) for an underwear
ad. He said hey I wrote this 30 years ago and not many people have
heard it lately. They offered me 1.25 million - what would you do. Now
people are buying our stuff and I can use some of this money to help
with charitable situations.
I am not sure members on this site would turn down these offers.
Also if the music isn't being heard is it really making a sound. We need
to get this music heard in any way we can or we will forever be stuck
with the noise that is now on the radio.

I just saw that Journey-Ford commercial and it was bad - of course I never liked the song or Fords anyway. A friend and I were talking about this very thread subject after and he said well it depends on the song and presentation blah blah blah and then said what is the difference between these guys whoring themselves out for these products versus the same music selling high end overpriced equipment to listen to them on. The stuff you guys buy never comes ready you have to upgrade the cord, wiring, caps blah blah blah. These companies are also the whores here and they tempt you every chance they can. I told him I would pass it along. I thought is was funny coming from a non-audiophile who drives a Cadillac.
