very weird lk. Don't know about Nick's music being used in a phone ad. Couldn't they have used "Know" or "Black eyed dog" or some song of Nicks that people didn't really listen to (much)
"From the morning" is one of Nicks better songs. Its not my favorite Nick song, but its in the top 10 (including side one of Pink Moon, natch!  |

I hate to see anything I cherish musically from the 60's & 70's used on a commercial...Beatles, Stones, etc and even Drake but if it gets him out there....I will cringe and tolerate.
To have him used for an AT&T ad only shows that the Ad creative guys are getting hip....not likely even something the AT&T execs are aware of. The Ad Agency guys probably snuck it in hoping to get it by the AT&T approval board for the ad.
It was just sweet to hear it as I usually zone out or "mute" during commercial breaks for my few shows, like "LOST".

Has anyone ever noticed the similarity betwixt "Hazy Jane II" and some of Love's faster, more "poppy" sounding stuff?
Similarities:
1)Medium fast tempo
2)Tijuana Brass sounding trumpet parts
3)Long lined, modal melodies
4)Treble, twangy guitars
Some similar Love songs:
Que Vida
The mariachi trumpet songs on FC |
