Why should we buy a new car, or take out that payday loan, or adopt a dog, or join a gym, or get a prescription for the latest anti-depressant, or purchase the latest shade of red in the world of luscious lipsticks? We should do any and all of these things because they have a cool commercial with a cleverly sampled chorus from a hit song or a song that will be a hit after everyone looks the song up online and downloads it from itunes.
Here are some songs to grab people's attention and get them buying stuff.
----------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
This mix was inspired by thinking that the Black Sheep's song "Flavor of the Month" with its crazy catchy horn section sample and its super duper chorus, asking us to "get with this or get with that", would make for a somewhat funny jingle for advertising an online dating service. I don't watch much live television because I prefer to download shows and chainwatch them, so after having that little thought about the Black Sheep song, I happened to turn on the television and was surprised to see a commercial using that very song to sell cars. Not too weird, but coincidental enough to get me thinking about other songs that could be used to get people's credit cards sliding through the dirty slits in those filthy machines that are kept near cash registers.
