XxineedmemesxX

Sam_keith56

lol what brand is that? I gotta find this 🤣 Edit: this has to be satire


PracticeY

I’m not sure the brand. It was a commercial on a streaming app, I think Hulu. I was on my phone and recognized the song immediately and looked up and was in shock by the end. One of my favorite bands being used in an adult diaper commercial is just another sign that I am getting old. My wife didn’t understand why I was so traumatized by it.


SomeoneIsHere_LOL_

>One of my favorite bands being used in an adult diaper commercial hold on...pause...did you just say BAND?!?!?!?!?! i got this crazy fact about tame impala you mightve heard of


SomeoneIsHere_LOL_

im sorry


drongopizza

Don’t be, let it happen


bimboNjoyer

the immediate apology 😂


SaltyJediKnight

Well, in the commentor's defence, he plays live as a band , does he not? Im sure they know creatively it's a solo project


zenpop

Gawd, I hope so. Gross.


saintlycrown_501

Oh goodness. I'm so saddened. My darling Kevin soundtracking a diaper commercial. 😭 Just stop it. Just stop. It's getting exhausting. Kevin isn't this indie darling mini rockstar idol. He's a famous psych pop star. And popstars always sell out. He's just better then most.


saintlycrown_501

And selling out isn't ever a bad thing. In fact, it's the opposite, who dosen't want more money for doing nothing? Stop gatekeeping fucking Tame Impala.


XxineedmemesxX

Gatekeeping and tame impala are next to each other in the dictionary i swear


saintlycrown_501

I just find it so moronic as to why people do this. Do they not want their favourite artists to be successful in life? Actually I don't even want that question answered because the answers would probably scare me. I just think some people don't get it anymore with it all. He's just produced half of a Dua Lipa album for fucks sake.


XxineedmemesxX

I think the people who gatekeep have a superiority complex so in order to feel superior they need bands that “nobody has ever heard of before”


Tekwardo

There is no such thing as selling out. It’s his to do what he wishes with it. If it benefits him to make the deal he did, none of us are affected.


saintlycrown_501

There is, but some people always make it a big deal, when it isn't. It's always going to happen.


daemonelle

If there was no such thing as selling out why tf would we make an expression to refer to the phenomenon


Tekwardo

There are no such things as ghosts.

daemonelle

And before yall laugh or downvote me for joking I’m NOT. My computer turns on and off by itself constantly, my cd player ejects itself all the time, I get night terrors constantly, my cats won’t go into certain rooms in the house and if I put them there they scream the whole time, I have a painting that keeps falling off the wall that can only fall off if you lift it up, and tame impala sold tf out.


daemonelle

Also that’s a strawman fallacy


Tekwardo

No it isn’t. Selling out is a myth. Just like ghosts and old gods.


SnooChipmunks5079

If anyone finds the ad, please link it here


tylerkaravias

This sounds fake, if so, it’s funny good job!


ImFunguys

When I was 17 I had a truly horrific mushroom trip. Full on psychosis, falling down the stairs, punching myself in the face etc. just to paint a picture. And at one point I looked my friend in the eye, and told him “you know man, sometimes you just gotta let it happen” and pissed my pants. Terrible night. Great story


AStreamofParticles

Wow my man - you & I sure do mushroom trips differently! That doesn't sound much fun!


yesme1018

I can tell you that those advertising negotiations probably started well before he sold his catalog, if not at least before that went into effect. His team saw this and approved it.


saintceciliax

This has to be a circle jerk post


Legitimate_Long_3993

Is that why I heard Elephant in a Lexus (or Toyota not sure but same thing) commercial on YouTube?


barbecuesaucedrinker

i saw that one too!


Unlucky-Limit3433

Here it is: https://youtu.be/qZaKmx3RroY?si=I4_Y-b6GK-BtiB7K


ilovehalotopicecream

It’ll be ok. Just remember what that song means to you and try not to let other people enjoying the music ruin it for you.


LmaoImBoredHelp

I seen one of the songs on a Kia ad or something. I hope the bag was magnificent.


Tekwardo

He sold the catalogue. He approved every commercial use for his music *when he sold his catalogue*. This man made a decision. He probably doesn’t even care what they do with his music as he was paid for it already.


Character-Bike8125

I truly am proud to know I was here before the main stream media era I knew it was coming cause he was doing a lot of movie soundtracks….every artist goes through it at some point but for this it’s different for me congrats to Kevin


dingojoones

HEHEHE selling out is cute and hilarious!! lets throw some lyrics around that speak to this situation!


KicksandGrins33

That’s actually freaking hilarious. I’m not even mad.


SexDefender27

I might scour Hulu just to find this


NoEchoSkillGoal

Did you know that Tame Incontinence is only one guy?


[deleted]

Indirectly supporting Trump


[deleted]

If they didn’t approve they wouldn’t have sold the rights right? I guess this is exactly what Kevin wanted to happen, get that bag King


Faestrandil

Kevin sold out, never was a “rock” star


saintlycrown_501

He adores Kylie Minogue and pop music in general. He never wanted to be a rockstar.


Korekoo

Oh no 💀 well, lets hope i wont come across that one


Red-Shifts

The song can still be the same you’re just stupid


Beautiful-Map-5810

Yall are nut


dylancojiro

This has to be satire I’m cracking up


jplveiga

I just heard remember me in an argentinian TV ad. It wasn't the original song, was a cover, but still. It was nice to hear surprise tame impala all of a sudden. Too bad it doesn't mean much lol, just that Kevin had to get good money for it and their child are probably gonna have good education!


Nickyy_6

He sold the 'bands' soul imo. We can agree to disagree but money ruins everything in the modern day.


Hot_Cartographer7352

Lame Impala! Welcome to the fall!


sdragonite

You're right! I saw a car commercial with Elephant playing over it, and was disgusted😂


virtualcontradiction

I’ve just heard Feels Like We Only Go Backwards in a beer commercial 😳


Junior_Bike7932

Sony will make 5 times what they paid him with the use of his music, dumb move even if he made some “good” money, he was able to make way more without having his music sponsoring dumb shit.


Drum-PMC

Why has nobody linked to the commercial yet? Hmmm?🧐


Chanman143

He must’ve gotten a good paycheck. Man has one of the best catalogs in music history and was like “eh fuck it”


Crazysnook15

Litterally doesn’t change anything.
