I don’t mind it so much as it makes me laugh in this case. Especially because this wasn’t Outback using Of Montreal’s song, nor was Of Montreal even singing their song, it was Outback buying the song and changing its meaning.

It’s one thing to see a Range Rover ad with Moby’s God Moving Over the Face of the Waters in it, but it’s an entirely different thing to see a Range Rover ad with that track played by someone else and featuring product specific lyrics.

(in the case of God Moving Over the Face of the Waters it would be weird hearing that song with any lyrics)

While I agree that it does suck to see the bands that you love selling out for commercials, it’s also sadly sometimes the only way that bands can get their music in front of a national audience anymore. Mtv certainly doesn’t play videos anymore. Corporate rock stations suck. Sure there’s the internets, but you still have to get people to find out about you and seek out your music. I read an interview with Moby several years ago after he had licensed some music for a car commercial and his stance was: Yes, it was selling out, however it gave him a great opportunity to get his music heard and that if he hadn’t done it they would have just commissioned some studio musicians to rip him off and make something that sounded like his music anyway. So why not be the one that gets paid for it?

And then there’s also the bands that don’t own the licensing for their own music who get mightly screwed and have no say in what happens to it or who uses it.

I, too, had the most unsettling feeling in the pit of my stomach when first viewing the Outback ad. But I also had the same feeling when I saw the Toyota commercial with the instrumental riff from the Dandy Warhols ‘Bohemian Like You’, and the most recent Victoria Secret/Hendrix riff spot. But, don’t fear people, all those bands have years and years to go before they sell out/make shrewd business deals like our friends The Who. (I wrote a little about these ‘Master’s of Greed’ back in July at http://rockislandlife.blogspot.com/search/label/The%20Who).

So crazy. When I first saw that ad I didn’t believe what I was hearing at first. I thought maybe I had Of Montreal stuck in my head, and I was the one making them sound similar. Man did they butcher that song. Pun sadly intended. In the end, the whole thing strikes me as extremly lazy. I see some young fresh faced “kids” at some NY ad agency just digging through their CDs, looking for a jingle. They totally phoned that one in. The whole thing feels like Tina Fey being given her own show to write…so she writes one about working on a sketch comedy show at 30 Rock. Lazy! Lazy! Lazy! ….man I have too much to say on this topic….

I was thinking much the same thing when I first saw that Outback ad: “Wow; I would never imagine that the band that wrote and performed the Gay Parade, quite literally, would hock steak.” Let’s pretend the ad doesn’t exist.

and I think, “Hm, that sounds familiar. . . hey, it sounds like Wraith Pinned to the Mist (And Other Games) by Of Montreal! But that can’t be, they’re an indie band. . .”, so I just assumed it sounded uncannily like it. Now, though, I just read an article
