Led fucking Zeppelin...
I love Led Zeppelin and Bob Dylan. However, i also like this comment made by Trent Reznor on the subject of BD and LZ putting their songs in stupid commercials, just to make money:
"If an artist owns the controlling rights of their music, then it's their decision to do what they please. I wonder if Dylan could understand the sinking, hollow feeling I had when I heard his music in that context. How much money does Led fucking Zeppelin need? Do they realize (or care) that when you hear their track now you visualize a shitty car whizzing by? Do they understand the significance of what their music once held for people--or is it really all about how many units you can sell and commerce at any cost?"

Right on, man. It's weird cuz I was ranting and raving to my mom just the other day about how I hate that song by LZ because of that Mercedes (i think that's what it was)commercial. I can't even listen to that song anymore.
