Who Knew (Pink) is being used in a commercial for a new show "October Road" on ABC. I was excited to hear it during Desperate Housewives!

1. "Blister in the Sun" by Violent Femmes in a Burger King commercial. Thank God the lyrics aren't played. Wendy's, actually (for those chicken sandwiches they dip in sauce). For those of us who know the title of the song, it's really not that appetizing.

OK I heard "working in a coal mine" by Devo used for some insurance company (I think?). Can't remember as I wasn't really paying enough attention. Too busy thinking, holy crap it's Devo.

Rogue Traders' "Believer" is now used in Old Navy ads.
There's a rumor that Garbage's "I Think I'm Paranoid" is in some commercial now, but I have yet to witness it.

On an Intel commercial, I heard this song by a band whose name I forgot. I think it was Tokyo Police Club or a band with a similar name.

The UPS commercials I've been seeing are using "Such Great Heights" by, ironically, the Postal Service.

What was the song featured on the BP commercial, the one that was cel-shaded and had babies driving a car?

what's that song sung by some r&b female for hair or makeup products? I think it's either avon or clairol or something like that. Wish I could remember the company.

Cat Power's "The Greatest" is being used in a commercial for a Garnier shampoo in Italy. It kind of disturbed me...

There's a sub-M.I.A. type track being used in some ad right now. I have no idea what its for, but I'll try to pay better attention next time. I feel so ashamed as an unhelpful consumer.

Nike used the Beatles' "Revolution" once back in the late 80's.
The surviving Beatles and Yoko Ono sued them.
Since then, you might hear Beatles' songs in commercials, but it will never be the actual Beatles singing them, they are always covers.

"Let's Get It On" by the late, great Marvin Gaye used in a deodorant commercial... It's nice, but I really wish it was naughtier! youtube.com/watch?v=6uRgKolheeE
