This site shows the banned Corvette Ad with JJF as its theme. I liked the ad, I can't afford a vette, but its a good ad.

Saint Sway AN OPEN LETTER TO THE STONES: Please no more of your songs in commercials. OK. Seriosly, NO MORE! You have enough money for all of us to live happily off of (not that you'd lend any of us a buck). So enough already. Nothing is cooler than your music but if you continue to whore your songs out to the highest bidder you will lose all respect and your songs will be forever remembered as commercial jingles by this generation and generations to come.

so please cool it with the ads. I know you think its cool. But hearing "Start Me Up" used to advertise Microsoft Windows is really, really uncool. And ditto hearing "You Cant Always Get What You Want" promoting Diet Coke. Way to ruin a great song guys. And now JJF in a car commercial? Two words come to mind: Bob Seger. And another two words: JUST LAME.

so please stop. I dont want to turn on my TV and hear "Midnight Rambler" used in a Purina Puppy Chow ad.

you guys are seriously starting to straddle the thin line between remaing cool rock legends and becoming uncool, washed up jokes. So leave the commercials to the Reo Speedwagons & Jefferson Starships of the world.

Seriously. Its time to cool it on the TV jingles.

thank you

Soldatti I don't think that the Stones will listen to you, Saint Sway. Not only Mick is on this things, now Keith too so it's imposible.
