The commercial Target debuted during tonight’s Olympic opening ceremony is “We Belong in This World Together” (iTunes) by Stereo MC’s.
“We Belong in This World Together” Lyrics (iTunes)
nside you are hollow
inside you are hollow
inside
we belong in this world together
what’s going on?
we belong in this world together
what’s going on?
what’s going on?
what’s going on?
gotta check myself
my own back yard
my calling card
don’t take it hard
if you fall
you’ll be wiser
after all
what’s the use without
invention in your mind
come on down
treat me as your kind
i’m a face in the human race
good for nothing
a hopeless case
there ain’t no time
there ain’t no space
ain’t no place for us to go
face to face
we’ll trace our step
side to side
from east to west
the feeling strong
i’m feeling strong
what’s going on?
what’s going on?
what’s going on?
we belong in this world together
don’t we belong?
staple make the diet
mental attitude
staple make the diet
and my mental attitude
staple make the diet
and my mental attitude
don’t we belong?
we belong in this world together
we belong in this world together
we belong in this world together
we belong in this world together
we belong in this world together
what’s going on

The most recent Target Commercial promoting the Milla Jovovich Carmen Hawk clothing line is using Brian Jonestown Massacre’s “Got My Eye On You” (iTunes) in the background. Very hard to hear.

As much as I know about music, I didn’t know this one. Great Kinks song, Everybody’s A Star (iTunes) being used in the current Target commercial advertising the Converse One Star brand.
Everybody’s a Star Lyrics
I am a creator,
Inventor and innovator.
I observe the people,
The ordinary people
No matter what your occupation is
Everybody’s in showbiz.
‘cos i’m a star (gonna make you a star),
And i can make you a star (gonna make you a star),
I believe that everybody’s a celebrity,
And we’ve all got personality
And individuality.
We all read lines,
And we all act a part,
We all need a script
And an audience to play to.
No matter what you do,
Or who you are,
Everybody’s a star.
I’m the magic maker,
I’m the image maker,
I’m the interior decorator.
I can take any man
I see standing in the road
And put rouge on his cheeks
And put some powder on his nose.
I’ll teach him how to act,
I’ll remould and reshape him.
I’ll put him in a stage suit
And i’ll teach him how to pose.
I can turn the most ordinary man in the world into a star.
I’m a starmaker (gonna make you a star),
Yes, i’m gonna make you a star (gonna make you a star)
No matter how dull or simple you are
Everybody’s a star.
I’m the magic maker,
I’m the image maker,
I can make or break you.
L’m a star maker (gonna make you a star)
Yes, i’m gonna make you a star (gonna make you a star),
Gonna make you a star,
‘cos everybody’s a star.
