The CLIO Awards, the most prestigious awards in advertising, will be given out tonight in New York City. Of course you won't hear commercial ads on WFUV, but from time to time you'll hear a song that you recognize from a TV commercial. It's become routine for bands and record labels to turn to commercials to get exposure for their music. What are some of your favorite examples of that? Pitch them below and we'll spin a set.

Here's what we played after 9am:

The Ting Tings "Shut Up and Let Me Go" (Apple iTunes)

Trio "Da Da Da" (Volkswagen)

The Clash "London Calling" (Jaguar)

Carly Simon "Anticipation" (Heinz Ketchup)

Squeeze "Tempted" (Burger King, Gap, Heineken)
