Thread: Songs for Model S ad...

  1. #1

    Songs for Model S ad...

    I thought of a fun topic:

    Kia has a catchy rap song playing, with hamsters doing a lip-sync, and Cadillac has "Lovesick" by Lindstrøm and Christabelle, and other car commercials have songs dubbed in their ads.

    What song or songs would be good to play for a Model S TV commercial? It could be current pop song or a retro, "Golden Oldie". For instance, "Electric Avenue" by Men At Work might be catchy.

    I think you meant Eddy Grant, not Men At Work...

    Here are a few of ideas:
    Giorgio Moroder - Chase
    Giorgio Moroder - The Chase (Elevated Level Remix)
    Dr. Who Theme 4
    Dr. Who Theme 5

    I say they go back to Massive Attack.

    They used this for the Model S Menlo Park party.

    Perhaps they could use this or this.

    New One...

    I just heard the J Brave rap, "Dipping in my Tesla" on FB. Also just saw that the IPO is up to 19.11. We're with a bullet, guys, it's gonna happen!

    > Teg,
    I stand corrected. My iPod had the group that does "Electric Avenue" wrong. I know it's Eddie Grant. Thanks for the heads up.

    Either Teardrop or Angel would make for a great car ad. Although I am not sure Tesla should go with the darker themed sort of car ads, which I feel like a Massive Attack song would lend itself to. The Model S would look great in silver driving over a black background, however.

    I wouldn't use Teardrop again for a TV ad since it's easily identified as the theme to House. I suggested Angel or Paradise Circus but just noticed that Lincoln already beat them to it with the latter one.
