Annimal Collective in a Crayola markers commercial is both bizzare and perfectly appropriate.

I've heard "Such Great Heights" in about 46798794563438791 different commercials.

"Sister Jack" is in a commercial "The Bleeding Heart Show" was in a commercial for Arizona University, the Modest Mouse song was in a Nissan commercial.

M83's "Don't Save Us From The Flames" appeared in instrumental form on a Pontiac commercial.

Hilarious Irony in 3...2...1: the song is about a horrific car crash!

M Ward was used in a Caddliac commercial recently, i'm surprised he would have signed off on something like that, but i can't complain seeing as I'm happy to hear "here Comes The Sun Again" in just about any context
