MFN in T-Mobile Ad
« on: September 20, 2011, 10:07:47 PM »
Just been surprised by the use of MFN in an advert for T-Mobile on the TV featuring traffic wardens if you please!  Both the drum intro and guitar intro are used, slightly edited but all the same quite nice to see it in an ad that one would reckon will be shown a lot.

Possibly ecourage MK to perform it on tour...

No! :lol

That's great!
T-Mobile doesn't do anything like that here in the States.

I might be a little slow but I don't understand the connection between MfN ("I want my MTV") and T-Mobile  :P

No, you are not slow, it seems more you might be a little deaf if you don't literally hear the terrific build-up of the aggression of the people pictured in that phantastic intro, until the moment the (bandana-)lady at 1:34 finds the money and looks totally astonished in the very moment the guitar riff starts - that is so greatly done that I can't imagine any other track for this idea. And after all, it's money for nothing, isn't it...  ;)

"Excellent..."

It's not I want My MTV that's important, it's "Money for Nothing".
