Say it ain't so Deep Purple!!

Yet another song being sold out. Don't remember the brand of car. But using "Highway Star" on their commercial....hey Blackmore and Company, maybe you should have re-written it as :
Nobody's gonna use my song
I'm gonna keep it till I die
Nobody's gonna use my song
So don't you f'n try!!!! :mad:

I know, I saw the commercial too, such a tragedy....

I feel even more slighted I did when Zeppelin's "Rock & Roll" was used in a Cadillac commercial.

Well, at least Highway Star goes with the "topic" of the commercial. These guys are getting near the end of their careers and are just looking for a bit of security. I personally don't like it when M. Jackson releases Beatle songs for commercials since he bought up the rights all those years ago. If he's as close to broke as they all say, there may be more released by the Smooth Criminal.

If the FCC still allowed tobacco advertisements, I could see Camel or Marlboro using Smoke On The Water. Even funnier would be My Woman From Tokyo for some escort service in Nevada.

Possible Non-DP commercial jingles:

Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd) for Sandals Resorts
Toys In The Attic (Aerosmith) for Toys-R-Us
Back In Black (AC/DC) for Gingiss (After Hours) Tuxedo Rentals
Brown Sugar (Rolling Stones) for Sugar In The Raw
Good Vibrations (Beach Boys) for...well...vibrators
Little Things (Zebra/Felix) for Kimono Condoms
