I actually just saw the Kia commercial today for the first time. It's great. I haven't seen the other two.

Burger King has used practically every #1 hit in the 70's and 80's at one point or another

Irene just saw it for the first time the other day, too. It's been running here in the Cleveland market for weeks and I've seen it countless times. How many times has that chair dance with the water been parodied over the years??

I just saw the Pizza Hut commercial for the first time yesterday. They are promoting the "Double Deep" pizza and are using "How Deep is Your Love" in the ads. This is the first time I've heard a Bee Gees song in a commercial.

Quite a few times, I think.

Maybe someday "Far From Over" by Frank Stallone will be used in a commercial.

I don't think so, Mike.

I recognized the end of "Let 'Em In" by Paul McCartney & Wings in a commercial the other day, but I can't remember what it was for.
