Lyrically Speaking 2022 - Day 10
July 8, 2022
Freaky Friday


LS salutes PrimeTime commercials!

Below are twelve popular rock songs that have been used (in part) in TV commercials. Some of these were more effective than others. Some made no sense at all. Regardless, there are many points to be made because a special PrimeTime bonus awaits at the end.

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist

(Note: The version of the song used in the commercial may have been slightly different, so please provide the most obvious artist for each song)


1. You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up
And turned you around
Turned you into someone new

2. Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you want to do

3. I love my sunny day
Dream of far away
Dreaming on my pillow in the morning

4. Don't want to wait 'til tomorrow
Why put it off another day?
One more walk through problems
Built-up and stands in our way, ah

5. I knew right from the beginning
That you would end up winning
I knew right from the start
You'd put an arrow through my heart

6. Rode down the highway
Broke the limit, we hit the town
Went through to Texas, yeah, Texas, and we had some fun
We met some girls
Some dancers who gave a good time
Broke all the rules
Played all the fools

7. Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time

8. It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring, it scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin?

9. I shouted out
Who killed the Kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me

10. I said hey, what's your name baby
Maybe we can see things the same
Now don't you wait or hesitate
Let's move before they raise the parking rate

11. So many people have come and gone
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
As clear as the sun in the summer sky

12. You know that chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor, shakin' what she's got
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean, she was steamin'

Granted, Sam Adams Brewery only used the instrumental introduction to that song in their commercial, but that part is so much better than the rest of it, IMHO.

Did I manage a derangement?
1. You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up
And turned you around
Turned you into someone new

2. Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you want to do

3. I love my sunny day
Dream of far away
Dreaming on my pillow in the morning

4. Don't want to wait 'til tomorrow
Why put it off another day?
One more walk through problems
Built-up and stands in our way, ah

5. I knew right from the beginning
That you would end up winning
I knew right from the start
You'd put an arrow through my heart

Shot Through the Heart, Bon Jovi

6. Rode down the highway
Broke the limit, we hit the town
Went through to Texas, yeah, Texas, and we had some fun
We met some girls
Some dancers who gave a good time
Broke all the rules
Played all the fools

7. Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time

8. It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring, it scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin?

9. I shouted out
Who killed the Kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me

Please Believe Me, Rolling Stones

10. I said hey, what's your name baby
Maybe we can see things the same
Now don't you wait or hesitate
Let's move before they raise the parking rate

11. So many people have come and gone
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
As clear as the sun in the summer sky

12. You know that chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor, shakin' what she's got
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean, she was steamin'

(Note: The version of the song used in the commercial may have been slightly different, so please provide the most obvious artist for each song)
