Cashing in

In the last few weeks, a few of my favourite artists have had songs in highly visible spots:

  • Lisa Loeb, We Could Still Belong Together in the movie Legally Blonde

  • Aimee Mann sings Driving Sideways in the commercial for the Audi A4

  • Matthew Sweet’s Girlfriend in the movie Crossroads with Britney Spears(!)

Some corporate shill of a A&R hack somewhere in movie/ad-land has some good taste. I hope that these appearances at least send some money in the creators direction.

Note Checking out Sweet’s IMDB entry I find to my horror that he has co-written songs with the Hansons… dunno what to make of that.
