Supergrass, "We Are Young" for Frosted Mini-Wheats

"Rock Around The Clock" becomes "POD around the clock" for Tide detergent pods. Seriously, that one doesn't even make sense.

Montell Jordan "This is How we Do It" for Dish Network -- I can't tell if it's a re=recorded version saying "DISH is how we do it", which would actually be sorta clever.

The Rolling Stones' "Paint It Black" for the current iteration of the Call of Duty videogame.

Ten Years After's "I'd Love to Change the World" for the film "Our Brand is Crisis."


Note:  Ten Years After is very underrepresented on 10@10.

agreed -- "Change the World" is pretty much all we've ever heard, and no one remembers how ubiquitous they were on prog-FM in '69 and '70, between Woodstock and the Cricklewood Green LP. "Love like a Man" was a staple where I come from.

She was here an hour ago; she left, but the odor lingers on...
