This TV Commercial is cute. It must come on a half dozen times while I am watching TV because the song is always stuck in my head.
The band or artist is Hello Gumption and the song is “Spinning As We Go” which I have the feeling was written for the commercial. On iTunes, the man/men only have two songs and they are both TV commercial songs. I always thought it might be a fun living to be a jingle writer, you know if I had any musical skills. Reminds me of the guy from Forgetting Sarah Marshall. As someone that occasionally produces radio commercials, the music beds that we use are brutal. I am sure it is more a budget thing, but man, if someone could make joyous contemporary beds for commercial use, I’d think you’d be able to find a market for it.
ha, after Hello Gumption playing on the iTunes, Hell Yeah sings “Alcohaulin’ Ass.”
Go with yourself.
I have rent that movie now. Russell Brand!
I rarely even consider that normal people actually come up with these commercials, but what a fun job that’d be indeed.
Hello Gumption should be sued over this commercial. There is nothing original about the song. The drum beat and base line are an exact copy of the Cure’s “Just Like Heaven”, and the guitar part is an exact rip off of another Cure song “In Between Days”. These were two of the Cure’s biggest commercial hits. I am really surprised there hasn’t been a lawsuit.
