"Bossanova" is one of my all-time fave albums.  Splendid stuff.

How many of you remember music by the comercials that it plays on. Like the Royksopp - "Remind Me" from Geico insurance.

Ha! I really like that song! I didn't know that's what it was called. I downloaded "This is the Day" by The The after it appeared in an M&M Commercial. And back in the day that "Da Da Da" song in Volkswagen songs was pretty catchy.

one commercial song that always made me cringe (because of the obvious clash of what the song meant and what was being depicted) was those carribbean cruise line commercials showing all these people having vacation fun while the song "Lust for Life" played in the background.

Yep, I guess I shoulda mentioned Alvin Lee.  Fairly compared to Hendrix. I couldn't believe I found this on YouTube. But apparently everything is YouTube now. This is my personal favorite TYA song. "I'm Going Home"

Edit - This one is better, from Woodstock 69
