Oh, this IS one of Mark's greatest songs of all he has ever written in my opinion, it would fit to almost everything - and I am sure this spot has exactly
the "Get Lucky" intention that Mark had in mind when writing the lyrics.. . :lol :lol

It is strange, because even though it is a nice commercial, i don't like MK songs (anyone's songs to be exact) to be  associated with any other meanings, such as this. Betting is not a very good thing after all. I also remember a Greek commercial 15-20 years ago that used "So far away" for Head and Shoulders".


Hey that would be a good thread, to mention any commercials with MK songs!



I remember the outcry of some Bob Dylan fans when he used "like a rolling stone"? for a female underwear commercial... 
Come on, it is not funny anymore.

That is just bizarre for a self proclaimed socialist to associate his music with gambling. I dont wanna get political but that is bullshit. Im in no way a socialist but why would MK let his music be used by a trashy gambling firm.
