Has anyone seen that M&Ms commercial with an Iron & Wine song? I'm usually all for music licensing, but this is just a terrible pairing. Who wants to buy melancholy candy-coated chocolate??? Big nuts to Sub Pop and whatever agency for this disgrace.

I dunno, I think Iron & Wine could be used to push all kinds of product. It's so pleasant and hypnotic, all it needs is to be embued with the right subliminal messages...

Feist is also shilling some sort of cologne. But it fits the commercial a bit better.

there's also no appropriate wine pairing for milk chocolate, incidentally.
