Well, the song starts off with a sample from Iggy Pop's Passenger, and then he adds a crazy pop/techno/hiphop beat behind it.  So, that's already an allusion to the state of today's music business (people sampling other people's music; the whole fair-use thing; the argument that music shouldn't be a product, but a free exchange of ideas).\n\nThen the lyrics:\n\nIt's 2006, the consumer’s still pissed (at the major labels' resistance to new technology and fear of piracy)\n\nWon't take it anymore so I’m writing a list \nDon't try to resist this paradigm shift \nThe music revolution cannot be dismissed \n$18.98 Iggy Pop CD? \nWhat if I can get it from my sister for free? \nIt’s all about marketing Clive Davis, see? (Clive Davis is the founder of Arista Records and the CEO of BMG North America)\nIf fans buy the shirt then they get the mp3 \nMusic was a product now it is a service \nMajor record labels why are you trying to hurt us? \nEpic’s up in my face like, “Don’t steal our songs Lars,” \nWhile Sony sells the burners that are burning CD-R’s (Sony/BMG was under a lot of criticism last year for including digital rights software in thousands of CDs that ended up loading viruses into many consumers' computers)\n\nSo Warner, EMI, hear me clearly \nUniversal Music, update your circuitry \nThey sue little kids downloading hit songs \nThey think that makes sense \nWhen they know that it’s wrong \n\nHey Mr. Record Man \nThe joke’s on you \nRunning your label \nLike it was 1992 (This is a reference to labels being reluctant to update their business plans.)\nHey Mr. Record Man, \nYour system can’t compete \nIt’s the New Artist Model \nFile transfer complete \nDownload this song! \nDownload this song! \nDownload this song! \n\nI know I'm rhyming fast, but the message is clear \nYou don’t need a million dollars to launch a career \nIf your style is unique and you practice what you preach \nMinor Threat and Jello both have things to teach! (Minor Threat was a hardcore punk band from the DC area.  MT's lead singer was Ian Mackaye, who later formed Fugazi, and is currently in The Evens.  Mackaye founded and runs Dischord Records, an indpendent record label that is strongly against corporations.  Last year, Dischord sued Nike over an ad campaign which was clearly a rip-off of Minor Threat's Anthology CD cover.  Jello is a reference to Jello Biafra, the stage name of Eric Boucher, the former lead singer for legendary punk band The Dead Kennedys, and founder of Alternative Tentacles, which is another independent record label.)\n\nI've got G5 (Macintosh G5 computers are very popular w/ musicians) production, concept videos \nTouring with a laptop, rocking packed shows \nThe old-school major deal? It makes no sense \nIndentured servitude (this is referring to labels making artists sigin long term deals, and ripping them off), the costs are too immense! \nTheir finger’s in the dam but the crack keeps on growing (They think they are solving the problem w/ low CD sales, but are just making consumers angrier).\nCan’t sell bottled water when it’s freely flowing \nRecord sales slipping, down 8 percent \nIncreased download sales, you can't prevent \nSatellite radio and video games \nChanged the terrain, it will never be same \nDid you know in ten years labels won't exist? (He is foreshadowing an era when all music will be on computers and shared over the internet)\nGoodbye DVD’s, and compact disks! (dying technologies)\n\nHey Mr. Record Man, \nWhat's wrong with you \nStill living off your catalogue \nFrom 1982 \nHey Mr. Record Man, \nYour system can't compete \nIt's the new artist model \nFile transfer complete \nDownload this song! \nDownload this song! \nDownload this song! \n\nYou know, we just wanted a level playing field. \nYou’ve overcharged us for music for years, and now we’re \nJust trying to find a fair balance. I hate to say it, but

The one on the advert is by a band called 'Nouvelle Vague' off their self titled album.  It is a cover of the Modern English original but done in a differnt style.  The whole album is full of punk/post punk covers done in this style, such as Teenage Kicks & Love Will Tear Us Apart.  Think the song has been released on a cd single too

The music credits for that go to Elias Arts/Santa Monica. It looks like it may have been done specifically for the commercial, but not sure.

Go on Google and type in "adverts". There is a website that tells you the songs in every advert you just have to find the right website!

Though the song is extremely good, I'm not entirely sure of its meaning. I'd say it's about two people attracted to eachother but hesitant to make a move, they both want the other to "say it right" and sweep them off their feet. Meanwhile because of their fears they try to deny the attraction.\n\nI could be really wrong though, would love to hear more input

The song is "Diamonds and Guns" by Transplants. Al tho the version on the commerical has the lyrics cut out. Still a pretty sweet song tho.

I doubt this is it, but the only song that came to mind was "stellar" by incubus.\n\nThe lyrics in it were more like "Meet me in outer space..." \nVery good song though.

I havane't seen this ad before (am in Australia) but have a look at this site:\n\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1b4bwinEjNw\n\nIf this is the ad you're talking about, the song is called "Utopia" by Jackson and his Computer Band.\n\nSounds like a great song!
