Just happened to see commercial on TV. Oh no. The song has been appropriated to the point where it's a joke rather than an apex of rock writing. Fun for the kids haha I say sarcastically to myself. This kind of stuff was what the lyrics of Satisfaction was railing against. There's the rush of hearing the studio version of the classic and you run to the tv and it's about dog food and cartoons. OK for many I'm sure. Not for me. I like all four verses too but that's another story...

LOL

It's funny to hear Sympathy playing over the cartoon dogs. That was my initial reaction. Nobody takes anything seriously anymore. All these old classic rock songs that are so great.. between the movies, tv and commercials, they're almost all used up. Dire Straits "Walk of Life" on the constipation commercial is the funniest.

The band has never been adverse to the use of their songs for commercial purposes, they obviously approved the use of Sympathy for this cute little movie. They even wrote a commercial jingle back in their early days,
