The other night, I was scrolling through my feed and found this interesting tweet.
What caught my eye was the referenced song. I recognized the tune as I had downloaded the same song after I heard it in 'Hall Pass' a few months ago. After confirming with Sweets we were talking about the same song, I joked that half the songs I've downloaded were from commercials or movies. This was an off-the-cuff quip, but then I realized there was some truth to it. Below is a list of songs I've downloaded after hearing them in commercials, TV shows, or movies.
Rubberband Man, The Spinners - Stripes/Office Max
Start A War, The National - St. Vincent
The Downeaster "Alexa," Billy Joel - Hangover II
Safe and Sound, Capital Cities - Mazda
The Walker, Fitz & The Tantrums - Supercuts
Overwhelmed, Tim McMorris - Sam Adams
Back to Paradise, 38 Special - Revenge of the Nerds 2
I'm Shipping Up To Boston, Dropkick Murphys - The Departed/Sam Adams
Walking On a Dream, Empire of the Sun - Hall Pass/Honda
One Thing, Finger Eleven - Scrubs
On Top Of The World, Imagine Dragons - The Incredible Burt Wonderstone
Lose Yourself, Eminem - 8 Mile
Get Back, Ludacris - Tropic Thunder
How's that for sucking as a human being?
