Information regarding song use in popular culture[edit]

I am adding back in the information a previous user removed under the auspices of removing trivia. Information regarding where a song has been used in more recent times is an indication of the song's lasting influence, is valuable information, and is certainly not "trivial".

The licensing of classic rock recordings for use in advertising and television has become a regrettable although lucrative business practice in recent years, but it is not so much an indication of lasting influence than simple familiarity and nostalgia, and is first and foremost dependent on which recording artists have offered their catalogs for sale. And yes, a brief snippet of a song heard in the background of a television commercial that ran for a couple weeks is trivial. Piriczki (talk) 15:34, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
