From a thread on MetaFilter, songs in commercials are becoming a phenomenon all their own — Cadillac is even becoming popular with some younger buyers due to their use of a Zepplin song in an ad.
There’re also websites that help people figure out the artists that performed songs heard in commercials. At first, I was happy to discover SongTitle.info as there’s one song from a GMC Yukon commercial that I’m still trying to track down (the commercial featured the hulking beasts driving in choreographed circles, synchronized-swimming style).
SongTitle has an entry for “Our Day Will Come” by Ruby & The Romantics (with a link to a sound sample) for the Yukon. But, after listening, I ruled that one out. I don’t hold it against SongTitle, but I suppose they just don’t have the details for that particular commercial.
Even Volkswagen has a CD of collected songs from its commercials. Some of the more obvious ones — such as Mr. Roboto — are on there, but I may just get it to discover some new techno artists (good techo is just so hard to find these days).
Trying to find the song title as well as the availability of the Walgreens Drug Store commercial. This song also used in a Sacramento radio ad for oriental carpets. Would like to have this music. Lee

The music for the JC Penney commercial is “Let My Love Open the Door” by Pete Townshend, off his 1980 album “Empty Glass.” It’s one of the classic songs of the original Punk/New Wave Period of 1976 thru 1983, before New Wave morphed into alternative and alternative morphed into modern rock and it all became pop after all.

Hello. I was just wondering if anyone knew what a song in a GMC commercial is. There’s a guy sitting at a desk drawing up car parts, and when he throws the papers in the garbage can, they turn into car parts like falling in a field or something. The song is definitely awesome, and I need to know what it is.
Thanks!
