Didn’t expect a new iPod/iTunes ad with no new product to tout, but there is a new one featuring the song “Shut Up and Let Me Go” (iTunes) by the Ting Tings.

Sample lyrics
Now I’ll go easily
You’re over me
Gone is luck
It’s me that ought to be
Moving on
Your nose is horrible
I want something unignorable
I ain’t freakin’
I ain’t fakin’ this
I ain’t freakin’
I ain’t fakin’ this
I ain’t freakin’
I ain’t fakin’ this
Shut up and let me go
Hey!
Shut up and let me go

Brendan Benson’s song “What I’m Looking For” is being used in the current iPod Touch commercial (the one with the iPods on a wooden table). Some of you might know Benson from the Raconteurs - he had two great albums before that. Check them out.

“What I’m Looking For” Lyrics - iTunes
Well I don’t know what I’m looking for
But I know that I just wanna look some more
And I won’t be satisfied
‘Till there’s nothing left that I haven’t tried
For some people it’s an easy choice
But for me there’s a devil and an angel’s voice
Well I don’t know what I am looking for
But I know that I just wanna look some more

Well I don’t know what I’m living for
But I know that I just wanna live some more
And you hear it from strangers
And you hear it from friends
That love never dies, love never ends
Now I don’t wanna argue, no I don’t wanna fight
‘Cause you’re always wrong and I’m always right
Well I don’t know what I am living for
But I know that I just wanna live some more

I used to be involved, and I felt like a king
Now I’ve lost it all and I don’t feel a thing
I may never grow old, I may never give in
And I’ll blame this world that I live in
I visit hell on a daily basis
I see the sadness in all your faces
I’ve got friends who have married
And their lives seem complete
Here I am still stumbling down a darkened street

And I act like a child and I’m insecure
And I’m filled with doubt and I’m immature
Sometimes it creeps up on me and before I know it
I’m lost at sea
But no matter how far I row
I always find my way back home
But I don’t know what I’ve been waiting for
But I know that I don’t wanna wait anymore

Looking for…
What I’m looking for…
Looking for…
What I’m looking for…
Looking for…
What I’m looking for…
Looking for…
What I’m looking for…
Looking for…
What I’m looking for.

As much as I’d love to talk about how much I’d love to have a Macbook Air - it’s all about the music here. The new Macbook Air commercial is using a cool song from Yael Naim called New Soul (iTunes). The commercial is below.

New Soul Lyrics

I’m a new soul I can do this strange world hoping I could learn a bit about how to give and take.
But since I came here felt the joy and the fear finding myself making every possible mistake

la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la…

I’m a young soul in this very strange world hoping I could learn a bit about what is true and faith.
But why don’t please trying to comunnicate finding just in love is not always easy to make.

la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la…

This is a happy end cause’ you don’t understand everything you have done wise everything so wrong

this is a happy end come and give me your hand I’ll take your far away.

[Refrain]:
I’m a new soul I can do this strange world hoping I could learn a bit about how to give and take but since I came here fellt the joy and the fear finding myself making every possible mistake

la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la…

la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la….

The new Apple iPod Touch commercial uses the song “Music Is My Hot, Hot Sex” by Brazilian band Cansei de Ser Sexy(CSS).

Lyric excerpt:

Music is my boyfriend
Music is my girlfriend
Music is my dead end
Music is my imaginary friend
My music is my king sized bed
Music’s where I meet my friends
Music is my hot hot friend
My music is where I’d like you to touch

The new Apple commercial for the new video iPod Nano (the fat nano) features Feist’s song 1234 from the album The Reminder. She sounds a lot like Bjork.

Lyrics to 1234 by Feist
One Two Three Four
Tell me that you love me more
Sleepless, long nights
That was what my youth was for

Oh teenage hopes are lying at your door
Left you with nothing
But they want some more

Oh, oh, oh
You’re changing your heart
Oh, oh, oh
You know who you are

Sweetheart, bitter heart
Now I can’t tell you apart
Cozy and cold
Put the horse before the cart

Those teenage hopes
Who have tears in their eyes
Too scared to own up
To one little lie

Oh, oh, oh
You’re changing your heart
Oh, oh, oh
You know who you are

One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, and ten
Money can’t buy you back the love that you had then
One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, and ten
Money can’t buy you back the love that you had then

Oh, oh, oh
You’re changing your heart
Oh, oh, oh
You know who you are
Oh, oh, oh
You’re changing your heart
Oh, oh, oh
You know who you are

The new Apple iMac commercial is using a song called Exodus Honey by Honeycut.
