 Ad Music Reruns
Recycling a song is not taboo when it comes to TV ads and other media. Recently, Nikka Costa's "Everybody Got Their Something" has appeared in numerous ads that include Sears, Mitsubishi Endeavor and a promo for the new ABC TV show DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES. A new ad for Dentyne Tango gum is reusing a song, previously heard in a Gap ad, called "Tempted" by Squeeze. The Who made a comeback with the use of their songs as C.S.I. themes, and the latest incarnation, C.S.I. NY, is no exception. The new spin-off series used "Baba O'Riley" in a promo ad for the show and is the new theme song. The same song was also heard in the trailer and soundtrack for THE GIRL NEXT DOOR, in a HP "Change" ad and in a trailer for AMERICAN BEAUTY. And the striking song from KILL BILL Vol. 1, "Battle Without Honour or Humanity," is backing the "seven deadly sins" of the 2005 Jaguar XJ8L in its "Can You Resist?" ad.

 Victoria's Secret Uplift
You might not have noticed the music in the new Victoria's Secret ad for the "Angels Uplift" bra. The ad shows a group of VS models wearing colorful lingerie and large, white feathered wings and ends with the tag line: "Even angels need a little lift." The song featured in the TV commercial is by Keane and is called "Somewhere Only We Know."

 Hip Hop Honors
In a series of ads for VH1's Hip Hop Honors are black and white images focusing on different items. One ad shows a turntable and features the song "It's Just Begun" by Jimmy Castor Bunch. The tagline reads: "You see a turntable. They saw a band." In another ad, featuring a boombox, the song "Apache" by the Incredible Bongo Band is heard. (Although, that version of the song isn't available on albums in the US, a Fatboy Slim remix of the song samples from that version and sounds very similar to what is heard in the ad.) The tagline for that ad reads: "You see a boombox. They saw a block party." Both commercials end with the line: "You see a mic. They saw respect."

The instrumental song, "Apache," was originally recorded in the 60s by a UK group called The Shadows, but has since been covered by a wide range of artists including a popular US cover was done by the Danish jazz guitarist named Jorgen Ingmann. A notable version was by the hip hop legends The Sugar Hill Gang in the late 70s.

The Hip Hop Honors awards show, set to air in October, will celebrate hip hop's 30th anniversary. The show will feature the hip hop artists that broke ground with their new style, and will honor artists like Run DMC, Tupac Shakur and Public Enemy, with performances by the Beastie Boys, Sugar Hill Gang and more.
