I could of sworn this was ‘Love and Rockets’ and not this band. I even scoured their collection for this track thinking I missed it. It is dead on.. I’ll have to check out this band (a little late it appears).

I agree with the first posting here. It would seem that the Dandies have been worked time and time again for many other things. Though selling ones music for ads is a bit weird, if it pays the bills.

I love the fact that pontiac is using groups like m83 and the dandy warhols to sell cars. It is a more classy approach to advertising. It truly is marketing to the younger audience. When i first saw the most recent commercial, it put me in a state of “chill” and i like that, its not noisy, its tasteful. The commercial does a good job at making the car appear to cost more than it actually does, which is a good strategy.

I used to think that selling your songs for tv spots was cheesey, In fact I think I still do! Not to say that pushing your music is essential, we all have to eat. My point being that if your going to sell out and sell your song sell it to MERCEDES or BMW not to a freaking PONTIAC. Anyone want a Burning Idols song. Going once…
