I wasn’t paying attention, and I am not one hundred percent sure, but I think I saw a commercial for a power tool company the other day featuring the Bad Company song ‘Feel Like Making Love’…
The thing is… Hey, we haven’t had a thing lately, have we?… I am not really upset with them for selling out… Wait, I mean making a few dollars by letting one of their songs serve as a commercial jingle. I love Bad Company. They are underrated and overlooked by many music snobs. But they are the best garage band in rock history. Their songs are primal and not overthought. Paul Rogers sings with passion… And Bad Company is not Bad Company without Paul Rogers… Their rhythms grab you and do not let go…
All that being said, it just seems like a strange choice of song for a tool company. I can’t describe exactly what it is that bothers me. But it does.
Pouring My Art Out 
That’s a great song but…yeah, my first thought was that it’s a strange song for a power tool commercial, or…kind of appropriate in terms of innuendo.
Then they should have showed Paul Rogers.. with an electric screwdriver…
I don’t know who that is
The original vocalist for the classic Bad Company. The only real Bad Company.

What? Power tools don’t sexually arouse you??
Ok, my Dremel I use for carving tikis does a little
It makes sense. After all if you don’t use power tools safely, they will grab you and won’t let go. I’m thinking circular saws, chainsaws, etc. 😉
Screwdrivers…
Duuuude…. I love Bad Company. More power to em for making some money for their art, I guess. I’m gonna flick some on the ipod and have at it, at work and all. Gonna be sweeeet. Someone get me some more coffee.
You go, boy.
it’s odd the songs that are chosen for ads. My favorite though was Counting the beat by the Swingers for a Target ad run in Australia.
I might have to do a post of funny song choices for commercial products.
I’d like to read and hear that. ❤
I am putting it on the list for the rack squirrels to chew on.
