The Cure

I noticed this today..

I was watching tv and a commercial came on for Ashley Furniture (not sure if it's nationwide-US only) but the song in the background was a woman humming the tune to "Let's Go To Bed" but it was kind of techno/synth sounding.The music was very faint and the commercial was for bedding. I was surprised, and I wonder if anyone else has noticed this or seen this ad?

I don't think we get that over here :-( but it's great that they've used a Cure song! Nivea use a version of Close To Me here :-)

I don´t really like it when cure-song are used in commercial. But our government-owned tv-station has begun to used cure songs as background intros to some programs....

here's the thing,the song it wasn't "Let's Go To Bed". It was like they borrowed from the melody of that song and put it in a bit of their own song. Kind of like when Vanilla Ice said he didn't rip off "Under Pressure" by David Bowie and Freddie Mercury for his song "Ice Ice Baby".
