Title: Are Volkswagen in love with Pet Sounds ? Post by: Rob Dean on October 09, 2011, 11:31:55 AM 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.... Title: Re: Are Wolkswagen in love with Pet Sounds ? Post by: Rob Dean on October 09, 2011, 11:33:48 AM or even VOLKSWAGEN ::)
Title: Re: Are Wolkswagen in love with Pet Sounds ? Post by: buddhahat on October 09, 2011, 12:00:39 PM 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.
