Lazaro's Dog is one of those bands which everyone has heard a song of, but never heard or seen the band at all. Like Yello's "Oh Yeah" from the film Ferris Bueller's Day Off, everyone I know can sing Home Entertainment System word for word. This is not at least caused in part by the appearance on the Sony advert.
I predict that The Caesars with Jerk It Out will be another such song. Although it appeared in FIFA 2004 it's most famous for it's part in the iPod Shuffle commercial. Ironically, the CD is copy controlled in Australia which means that even if you bought a legitamate copy in Australia then you couldn't actually play it anyway... at least not through iTunes - yeah, good work Sony.
