Here's another one:
T-Mobile ad



The actual song
Queens of the Stone Age - You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire



This (I think) is good use of a song for an ad

You couldn't come up with a 10th song?
 
Just listening the ads posted earlier. I think the QOTSA song sounds 20x better in the ad. The vox kill it for me, and the mix sounds a lot better in the ad too. I was jamming along in the ad, but the original track lost me.

@IdRatherBeSkiing 4 great choices for your first CDs. I consider 3 of them personal classics and the 4th (Dark Side) I know is a classic despite my not ever having listened to it start to finish (yeah yeah ... you may all now collectively pick up your jaws and inform me that my music aficionado card has officially been pulled).

I bought my first CD before I owned a player. It said limited edition and had songs I couldn't get on vinyl or cassette (as far as I know anyway). It was the Red Hot Chili Peppers "Taste The Pain" CD-5. At the time (before "Give It Away" and "Under The Bridge"), I was a mega-fan thanks to Steven Tyler playing "Fight Like A Brave" while hosting MTV's Hard 30 in the summer of '89. 3 Unreleased Cuts?!?! I had to have it!!

If you decide to listen to it start to finish, I understand its good to watch along with the Wizard of Oz. I think you start it with the colour part. I've never done that but that is what I hear.

Turner Classic Movies used to show Wizard and if you turned the SAP audio on, they would simulcast Dark Side. Unfortunately, I never remembered to watch when they did that.
 
I have heard of the Oz-Moon connection, but I'd probably try the album on its own first. Then maybe try the movie thing.

I guess I haven't spent the time to listen to the whole thing because the two songs I know ("Money" and "Us And Them") don't excite me. The Wall, however, is a masterpiece. Though, now that I'm thinking about this, I don't listen to individual tracks from that one either. So maybe I'll like Dark Side in the same way as The Wall? As a whole - despite not being wowed by any individual song? I now ponder.......
 
Today's Top 10 of an artist. I only have a handful and here is the next one alphabetically (after yesterday's detour of Heart) is The Cars. I put this together after Rick O'Kasic's (sp) death. (These top 10s are playlists btw. I don't have random lists stored in my home.)

10. You're All I've Got Tonight
9. Magic
8. Since You're Gone
7. Just What I Needed
6. Good Times Roll
5. My Best Friend's Girl
4. Touch and Go
3. Shake It Up
2. You Might Think
1. Let's Go
