As I watch TV, there's some songs that I get to hear snippets of that I'd like to hear the full length version. I don't know if all of these songs have full versions or if they were just conjured up for the commercials themselves, but I was wondering if you folk recognize the songs or know where to find out what the song is. I have a preliminary list, I'll probably add more later on.
Game Boy Advance - Mario Golf McDonald's - Boob/Salad McDonald's - Boob/Stepometer Molson 6.0 Cold Shots - Red Fridge/Hungry Eyes Moosehead Lager - Party/Swimming Moose
Now I realize that these are all viewed on Eastern Canadian TV, but I have a satellite dish so I figure some of them might be from US channels.

Thank goodness McDonald's now sells stepometers. No longer will people continue to gain weight after eating Big Macs and fries. I can't recall ever seeing any of those commercials on DirecTV satellite here in the United States.

Well the funny thing is that the stepometers are the "toy" in the new adult happy meals. And I can understand US TV not getting the last two commercials, as they're for Canadian beer...

Well, the commercials focus on witty comments on women's t-shirts, and of course the comments happen to be where the breasts are when the shirt is worn. In one commercial the women are walking, and we later see its for a stepometer. In the other commercial, we see the shirt and a salad that the woman is holding.

Better than the "new food, new people" adverts for McDonalds we're getting now. A woman who goes there to eat the salad options deserves immediate death and hurting.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

What's disappointing is that they have the words "adult" and "toy" in a marketing campaign and a step-o-meter is the best they can come up with. That was just comedy waiting to happen and they blew it.
