You’ve got to give the people that choose the music for commercials some props. How the hell does someone see 30 seconds of footage and say, “Yep, I’ve got the perfect song for that car!”

My ipod holds so much music, at times it takes me a few good seconds to pick just the right song, and even then I still might change it halfway thru the song.

Here’s some awesome music that I love from current and past commercials:

Do What You Do – Marz ft. Pack and Mumiez

East End Blues – Leon Jean Marie

The Bomb – New Young Pony Club

Yeah Yeah Yeah La La La – Calvin Harris

Chelsea Dagger – The Fratellis

We Need a Change – Stereo Lies

Major Tom (Coming Home) – Shiny Toy Guns cover, originally by Peter Schilling

Space Oddity – Cat Power cover, originally by David Bowie

Let The Drummer Kick – Citizen Cope

Together – Rabbit!

Fascination – Alphabeat

No You Girls – Franz Ferdinand

Forever Young – Boy Dylan and Will.I.Am

Daylight – Matt and Kim

*Kudos to my good friend David Zandi for working on this one!

I Would Do Anything for Love – Meatloaf
