Some songs can’t be ruined by advertising

This list of pop songs ruined by commercials is pretty sad, chiefly due to the expectations of the contributors. Anyone who doesn’t expect shameless commercialism from Madonna, of all people, will be let down. For that matter, Kraft couldn’t have destroyed EMF’s “Unbelievable” any more than than EMF did, and that goes double for Oasis’ “All Around the World,” bits of which still pollute AT&T spots today. The rest of these “tarnished” pop songs are so marginal that the bands responsible should be kissing their agents’ feet for keeping their names alive outside VH1 nostalgia specials.
