Wow! Never thought I'd hear Motörhead song used for a commercial for a Kia Soul with a baby hamster. Just saw it and flippped out hearing Motörhead. Wonder if Lemmy is flipping in his grave?

No. Hwhoever is handling his estate and his descendants loves the money coming in. Kia used Motley Crue songs too. What does it matter?
When these guys were young they were all anti-establishment and flipping off "The Man". As soon as they signed that rock and roll contract the establishment and "The Man " had them by the nut sack.
I wouldn't care. Wanna use my song in a commercial? Show me the money

KIA does great Soul commercials. Best in the industry IMO.

where's all the vitriol for the Hyundai ad w/ Neil Diamond that's getting tv play?

Neil Diamond songs have always been commercial so no surprise there.

It's entirely up to the artist how they want to go here. I do have a bit of a problem where the artist is dead and has no say. Especially where their image is used. I hope they state their wishes along the way somewhere to the family. I have no idea how Lemmy would have went here. I imagine he would have taken the money.

I read where Iggy Pop has said he was glad to finally have a few bucks in old age. I have mixed feelings about this all becoming so mainstream but meh, I suppose.
