Queen! i forgot about them! i like them since i was... 6 or 7

I love "killer queen"

And about The Who... whenever i listen to them, all i can think about is "CSI", so that kinda messes up my vision of their music..

Yeah, no one mentioned them on this topic! *not impressed* I love Queen, I was kinda brought up on them. One of the many bands I was brought up on really. *nods* I listened to a lot of Pink Floyd when I was younger. Hmm.

Grr. *shakes fist at CSI people*

Part of their "Overture" from Tommy was used in an allergy medication commercial.

I hate it when companies shamelessly use music like that. Not so long ago I saw an advert (can't quite remember what it was for, therefore a useless advert) which used "Hello, Goodbye" by The Beatles, and really screwed it up. Made my blood boil that did. -_- Oh well.

Nah, this wasn't that bad. Overture is just an instrumental, and they used about 5 seconds of it.

Can't be as bad as Sony putting out a commercial with Macy Gray singing 'Walk This Way'.

I like Macy, but i try to imagine her voice screaming like Steven Tyler, and i get deaf just on the thought of it

(yes, i'm very evil, MWAHAHAHA)

"Walk this way!"

Steven Tyler sang The Star Spangled Banner at the Bosox/Cardinals game tonight.

Oh. Dear. God. No...please. *can't believe that exists* -_- I really can't imagine how awful that is. No offence to Macy, I quite like some of her songs, and her voice is cool, but, really? Walk This Way? :roll:

Bah, pish pash, they shouldn't have used it in the first place, it's just not...right.
*wags finger at company behind that commercial*

Another day, another commercial with a screwed up version of a famous song. *nods in wise fashion*

Anything by Jimi Hendrix rocks. I have every single known album, some signed, dozens of posters, an autographed guitar, tickets to all but a few of his concerts, videos and DVDs of a few dozen live performances, and even a guitar that was said to be once owned by him in his teen years.
