Who Sings That Song?

Welcome to the Super Bowl edition of Music On TV. There were numerous fantastic commercials that debuted at Super Bowl XLVI this year. We have the best ones here for your convenience. Music On TV is a website that I launched out of frustration with not being able to find out who the artists were that had the great songs being used in the tv commercials. It was taking me upwards of an hour just to find out basic information about the bands. Deciding that it just was not acceptable, I've launched the site as a way to help get the word out about some amazing musicians. Each ad has a link to the band's website, the song title and options to purchase mp3's of the featured song in 12 different countries.

(International Request : If you do not reside in the United States and think there are some great commercials currently running on your television, send me a link and I'll add it to the mix. I enjoy the international commercials just as much as our domestic ads and would love to include more countries)

    I don't watch much TV and so miss the commercials and most of these would be paired with sports which I also don't see much of. So, I just had the best break in a long while with your amazing commercial production...wowzers! I kept changing favorites along the way...enjoyed the old world feel of the booze commercials, did a little dribble, danced with Dish and Bud, had my hopes raised with iPhone, my mouth watered with Cee Loo Green...really want a 7-Up and its The Bull that captivated me. As a side note, Captain Morgan's coconut rum is amazing in fruitcake!

    I'm a dead loss on this as I spend so much time at my computer and almost zippo time with the television.
