Google Chrome: Jess Time Commercial Chris & Thomas- Broken Chair

This commercial might make you cry, or feel warm on the inside or both. Google Chrome commercials tend to be very good at doing that. The song has a very similar affect, give it a listen.

T-Mobile Rooftop Samsung Galaxy S III Oberhofer- o0Oo0Oo

There seems to be a lot of hate on this commercial because the dumb ass people were sending videos of the concert to their friends who were also at the same concert. Makes no sense. That's besides the point, the band playing the show in this commercial are awesome. I saw them preform live yesterday opening for Matt & Kim, they were wild and full of energy. Yes, that's really the name of the song.

Sears Beach Commercial CHAPPO- Come Home

This commercial was ridiculous, but what really caught my attention was this song. I do not know much about this band, but the tune was very catchy and I'm going to study them up.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower Imagine Dragons - It's Time

If you have not listened to Imagine Dragons yet, you need to now. This band is awesome and deserves recognition. The song starts around 1:16

FIFA Soundtrack Imagine Dragons - On Top of the World

FIFA games always have great songs on their soundtracks. Imagine Dragons is a band to watch out for, they are without a doubt going places. They also have this great energy live, which I've experienced first hand.

MTV's Underemployed 'Change the World' Matt and Kim- Don't Slow Down

My roommates were watching Battle of The Seasons last night, and on one of the commercials for another MTV show that will most likely last 2 seasons, I heard a song I love and know, Don't Slow Down by Matt and Kim. Matt and Kim have amazing energy and upbeat songs, and they are not strangers to the commercial world. The show seems to be about some kids graduating college, entering the real world, and getting trash jobs just to live. Not that creative if you ask me, but the song is worth the mention.

Julia Roberts Perfume CommercialVenus- Beautiful Day

I can't really pronounce the name of this perfume (La vie est belle?) and I have no idea what it smells like, but suddenly I'm interested in the product. And that's exactly what they wanted. Check out the commercial and the song, both are pretty awesome.

Taco Bell Doritos Locos Tacos CommercialPassion Pit- Take a Walk

This is a fairly new song from Passion Pit and this commercial will definitely help get the word out. If you like the song, check out Passion Pit because they have some other good stuff.

iTunes "Free Single of the Week" Youngblood Hawke- We Come Running

This song is an instant hit, don't be surprised if it's a staple on radio playlists in a few months. iTunes always has a free single of the week, and every once in a while they come through in the clutch. Successful alums of the free single fraternity include Chiddy Bang's "Handclaps and Guitars, Coldplay's "Christmas Lights", M83's "Midnight City", The Gaslight Anthem's "American Slang" and Neon Trees' "Animal" to name a few. So check it out every week and you just might get lucky.

Chicago Fire Commercial Imagine Dragons- Radioactive

I was glad to see this song in a commercial and to see this band starting to get big. Their EP "Continued Silence" has six songs and literally every one of them is amazing, I highly suggest taking a listen. Heres the commercial and song.

This Is How We Run - Under Armor Commercial Cypress X Rusko- Shots Go Off

If you wanna sell running kicks get some jacked football players and play some dubstep.

Expedia Find Yours Anthem Commercial M83- Raconte-Moi Une Histoire

Another inspirational commercial with a song by M83. The song clip used in the commercial is happy, but the actual full length song is a little weird and has a child talking about touching a frog and trippin' balls.

"The Watch" Movie Trailer Skrillex- Bangarang

If you've been trying to hide from the dubstep invasion, it's getting harder. Skrillex's Bangarang is featured in this trailer, chock full of A list comedians. Folks, I think it's time we give in and accept dubstep is here to stay for a while. Head to 1:05 to hear the whole bit.

HTC ONE X Commercial Calvin Harris- Feel So Close

As college kids, naturally we've heard this song and any respective remix you may have heard. It always makes me want to hop out of my seat and bounce around, or in this case, purchase a smart phone.

Sam Adams "For the Love of Beer" Commercial Tim McMorris- Overwhelmed

This commercial has the necessary ingredients for success- a song that gives goosebumps and that one guy with a really long beard. Anyone that has seen a Sam Adams commercial before knows what I'm talking about. Check it out.

Sony Xperia Ion Commercial Matt And Kim- Let's Go

One of my favorite bands Matt and Kim released a new song yesterday and is already on a commercial. The Bacardi commercial made their song Daylight blow up back in the day, let's see where this one takes them.

Trident: See What Unfolds Commercial The Naked And Famous- Young Blood

They're straight from New Zealand, and great live. Trident picked a damn good song.

HP Beats Commercial Nero- Promises

Yeah we all get beats are the cool thing to have, so now they put them in your laptop. This song is on the dubstep side, check it out.

Acura ILX Commercial The Ting Tings- Hit Me Down Sonny

The Ting Tings aren't new to commercial fame- "Shut Up and Let Me Go" blew up from an iPod commercial back in the day. Acura was smart to go back to them for some advertising. Take a listen.

Hatfields and McCoys Trailer The Silent Comedy- Bartholomew

The show looks pretty cool, and they picked a damn good song to go with the trailer. The haunting lyrics remind me a lot of The Gaslight Anthem, another awesome band. The Silent Comedy seems like it has promise, so check both of these groups out.

Audi Commercial Efterklang- Modern Drift

This bad boy gives me the chills. Check it out-

Target Commercial "Sparklers" Les Handclaps- Cacti Are Delicious Fruit

I've seen this commercial a bunch of times and no doubt it'll be stuck in your head.

Kraft Cheese Commercial "Make Something Amazing" Bright Idea- Mother Mother

Who doesn't love Kraft cheese products?? Basically was living off of that delicious junk during finals week. This song caught my attention right away, first commercial song of the summer.

Corona "Find Your Beach" Commercial Everest- Let Go

I guess it's not too difficult to find a song that makes you want to lay on a beach with a corona. Regardless, this song certainly does the job. It starts a little slow, but it's definitely easy on the ears and worth a listen. so grab a corona, put on this song and go lay on a beach. or just study for finals like real life people.

2012 GMC Terrain CommercialThe Naked And Famous- Punching in a Dream

This song is pure badassness. If this song tickles your fancy we highly recommend their album, "Passive Me, Aggressive You". We saw it in this GMC Terrain Commercial, but it's also gained popularity through FIFA 12' and apparently the Vampire Diaries..we don't watch that bullshit..heard it from a friend..seriously.

Prototype 2 Commercial Johnny Cash- Hurt

This song has been around a while, but don't be surprised if it makes a comeback as a result of this ad. This song by Johnny Cash is actually a cover of the original Nine Inch Nails version.



Johnny Cash version



Nine Inch Nails version

I Am Nikon Commercial Radical Face- Welcome Home

I have loved this song since I first heard it in a Original Skateboards video, now it was featured in a new series of I AM NIKON commercials. I don't know much about cameras, but the song made me want to buy a Nikon. The commercial is pretty sweet too.

Lowes "Fresh Cut Grass" Commercial Good Morning- The Kicks

Never heard of these guys, but the Lowes commercial is great publicity. Sorry for getting this song stuck in your head for the rest of the day. Totally want to mow a lawn right now.

Gotye SNL Performance Gotye- Somebody I Used to Know

Now we don't claim to be the first to hear this, or even that it's unknown. This song is already all over the place. The thing is, we think it's just starting. It reminds me of Adele cementing her fame with her SNL performance last year. Previous to that she was only known to heartbroken girls who were too mature for Taylor Swift.

Ted Movie TrailerThe Heavy - How You Like Me Now?

If you want people to buy whatever you're selling, put this song in the damn commercial. I've heard it in a Kia Sorrento commercial, a Miller Lite commercial, the Horrible Bosses Trailer, and now here. The rated R trailer is worth watching, but the song starts around 2:40.

Kony Part II Flux Pavilion- I Can't Stop

Just when you think the bandwagon for KONY 2012 is full, they roll out with a part II. I assume this video will blow up shortly and the song featured will be along for the ride. We've been listening to this bad boy for a while, mostly because we live in dorms full of college kids blasting this shit all the time. The beat drops around 18:30 in the video.



Check it out, you cant help but get up and rage.

Google's Project Glass: One day... Video Bibio - Lover's Carvings

Google uploaded this video today for their new "Project Glass", it looks pretty amazing. The song used isn't well known yet but its getting there, so check it out while its fresh. It's a little slower but still has potential.



The song is pretty chill.

Redbull Commercial M83- Outro

I knew this song before the commercial, but Redbull did it justice. Probably one of my favorites.


You don't need to be on a ton of drugs to love this.

Apple iTouch Commercial Grouplove- Tongue Tied

This is just the latest in a long list of admittedly catchy songs in apple commercials. Tongue Tied is the epitome of a song that blew up after this exposure, the reason for this blog. I die a little inside every time I admit to liking one of these damn commercials.



Original Song

American Family Insurance Commercial Locksley - The Whip

This one is just a fun rock song with a catchy chorus that we heard in this commercial-


Also, if you watch any hockey you've probably heard it after a goal. Here's the full song.

Internet Explorer Commercial Alex Clare - Too Close

Don't think anyone has used internet explorer in years, but the song caught our attention.
Here's the commercial...


A More Beautiful Web is... Internet Explorer TV Commercial from Internet Explorer on Vimeo.

...and the song they used.
