Here in the UK they use the original BB's version of God Only Knows for celebration of 60 years of the VW Vans , and now a new advert with a cover of Wouldn't It Be Nice for their new Hybrid Car - Great Stuff

AND there is a snip of the BWPS version of Our Prayer in an advert for a new ITV Production for ( I think ) a new holiday programme....

Have to say hearing God Only Knows in that vw ad recently reminded me of why I'm a fan. Something about hearing it out of context made me listen with fresh ears. There's nothing else like that song.

Caught the our prayer use as well. It really took me by surprise! Wish they'd used the original though! Makes you wonder if we'll hear more smile once the sessions come out.

Just seen the WIBN ad -  not a short ad either… had to put my daughter to bed during verse 2 but it sounded like they use the entire song.

here's a list of advertisments/celebrities that I think should use Pet Sounds songs as their theme..(even if it's just a line)
1.wouldn't it be nice-Pampers diaper company (with the line "wouldn't it be nice to be older then we wouldn't have to wait so long")
2.you still believe in me-the vatican
3.that's not me-Chaz Bono
4.Don't talk-national association of the deaf and mute
5.I'm waiting for the day-Harold Camping (the dooms day false prophet from florida)
6.let's go away for awhile-travelocity
7.Sloop John B-Alcoholics Annonomous (with the line "drinking all night got into a fight this is the worst trip I've ever been on")
8.God Only knows-the southern baptists
9.I know there's an answer-the game show Jeopordy
10.here today- the hair club for men
11.I just wasn't made for these times-Borders books
12.pet sounds-The california zoo
13.caroline no-north carolina telling you not to go to south carolina

That's advertising Joanna Lumley's Greek Odyssey
