    Man, Andrew W.K. must have the record for most songs off of one album to be featured in commercials. From just what I've seen (I don't watch TV THAT much), he's got the following:

    "Party Hard" - Coors
    "It's Time to Party" - Coors
    "Don't Stop Living in the Red" - Target
    "She is Beautiful" - some video game ad

    Party 'til you puke!

    Nice pic, Freak, to look at while I am eating my lunch.

    Is one of those songs on the Coors commercials about "watching or looking at the twins?"

    Damn, I HATE that commercial!

    I get annoyed at that party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party hard, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party, party hard party hard...

    I just keep thinking, if that's all it takes... damn, I could write some lyrics. ;)

    Sheesh, you really don't keep up with music do you? :)

    Andrew WK! Haven't you seen those beer commercials with the wild party at a bar and the heavy music that goes:

    SO LET'S GET A PARTY GOIN'!
    LET'S GET A PARTY GOIN'!
    WHEN IT'S TIME TO PARTY WE WILL PARTY HARD!
    PARTY HARD!
    SO LET'S GET A PARTY GOIN'!
    LET'S GET A PARTY GOIN'!
    AND WHEN IT'S TIME TO PARTY WE WILL ALWAYS PARTY HARD!
    PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD! PARTY HARD!

    etc...and that's just a taste of the poetic stylings of Andrew WK. I must confess I really liked his album. It's entertaining, but it has gotten old and the commercials didn't help.

    BTW, doesn't Fatboy Slim have Andrew W.K. beat on commercial songs? I bet it's close.

    And no Manny, he doesn't sing the song about the twins.

    1.)Mastercard - Jean Jacques Perry - EVA (Fatboy Slim Remix)
    2.)Mercedes-Benz - Fatboy Slim - Praise You
    3.)Mitsubishi '2000 Eclipse Spyder' - Groove Armada - I See You Baby (Fatboy Slim Mix)
    4.)Oldsmobile - Fatboy Slim - Right Here, Right Now
    5.)Surge - Fatboy Slim - Rockafella Skank
    6.)New York Stock Exchange - Fat Boy Slim - Right Here Right Now
    7.)Max One-Time Camera - Fatboy Slim Rockafeller Skank 2

    I'd say Smashmouth is pretty bad too. That car commercial makes me cringe. That said, nothing will top the idiocy that has been the Coors Light ad campaigns of the last 3 years or so.

    WHO???

    I honestly have no idea who this person (band?) is. Sounds like a musical genius, though...

    Also, he's starting to license out '18' as well. I noticed one of his songs from that album is featured in an Intel commercial...

    Smashmouth is the coolest band that ever became absolutely lame. To go from top of the alternative charts 4 years ago to opening for NSYNC last year is just horrifying. At this rate, they will be the back-up band for Tiffany's comeback tour next year.
