I don't see anything wrong with it. They've aired this for years now. *shrug*
It's always great to hear a Motown artist featured in a television commercial. What could be wrong with that? Thanks for locating and putting this on the forum. Whenever I hear things like this I am not tech saavy enough to locate these to put on the forum
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,i love this commercial..the chocolate get with the peanut butter,they put some marvin on and-boom-reeses peanut butter cups..haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-brilliant!!
I think the real question should be is this a good use of Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On"!!?

I think the problem is when the association becomes permanent in your mindQuote:

That said this commercial doesn’t have that effect on me, neither did the California raisins commercials
Others do, the ones that comes to mind are Sly Stone Everyday People makes me think of Toyota and Rock you Boat by Hues Corporation makes me think of Pepsi

Rather ironic given the umbrage that family take$ with use of Marvin'$ mu$ic. It'$ all about the ca$h with tho$e Gaye$.
Would you say the same for some members of Diana Ross' family if her music gets played in commercials? You seem to really have it in for the Gaye family.Quote:

I'd say any use of a Motown song can only be positive to keep all age groups aware of the wealth of talent!
That's how it was for me as a child. :)Quote:

"Let's Get It On" is the ultimate sex song. It's always the one they use in TV shows and films to say "these characters are getting it on".
"Sexual Healing" is on similar level of sexiness. :D
