"This is what it's like on a fantasy..."

Returning to posting some songs that have been featured in commercials lately, I noticed that husband and wife duo, Mates of State, were included in an AT&T wireless ad. As a fan of male-female shifting vocals and the slight disjointedness of their composition, it delighted me to see/hear them in 14 seconds of commercial. Maybe some ad exec will take the cue from this and toss the Stars a contract in favor of their rebounding vocals as well. Hey, you never know.



I found it strange that they chose "For the Actor" for this ad, though. With the Kenna commercial, at least a song was chosen that people hadn't been exposed to yet, and that helped garner some interest in the forthcoming material, but this album's been out for at least a year.
