I'm a little bit miffed that Freelance Whales is in this commercial, I'll admit. They're a gem that I always wanted to keep to myself. But, you have to realize, them gaining popularity is only a good thing! Maybe the world will finally open their ears and listen to fantastic music for a change, and Freelance Whales will get the recognition they deserve.

@typar91 No I shouldn't. Read all the comments below, half of these kids have to rely on a GD Starbucks commercial to find good music. I despise Starbucks, and for all of us who take pride in our musical taste; are picky about the bands we listen to; avoid "pop" music, continuing to listen to a band who sold out is immoral.
@ifyouwereapirate4425 if you can't support a band because they are becoming too popular, then you aren't a fan at all. I was a fan of Mumford and sons before they hit it big. Bands don't play music for the person who gets angry because 'their' band gets discovered. It pisses me off when people complain about others not being fans just because they heard the song on an advertisement. You can go ahead and be a cry-baby and disown the band, they have more true fans that will listen and keep track
@ifyouwereapirate4425 No, we new this band before the commercial. We were just so excited that are favorite band is on a commercial. FREELANCE WHALES!!!!!!
@tomboyfimls28 I'm not sure if your first reply was intended to be snarky or not but I was a fan of the band before the commercial too.i believe a band should gain recognition by making groovy tunes, being a unique band and what not. Not by selling out to effing Starbucks of all places! Most people don't like sellouts.
And for your second reply, no. Some kid was being ridiculous and said I wasn't a Freelance Whales fan so I decided to be obnoxiously sarcastic. :)
How is this a postal service wannabe? They are in a similar genre but I'd say I actually prefer some Freelance Whale songs to Ben Gibbard. (although, yeah, he is pretty cool)
@ShizensWorld Not at all. the vocals mabe a little but the overall persona of the song/band is completely different. Like the banjo. Owl city would never think about using a banjo haha.
@clearlycolorful ah! ive always wanted to be the person to tell that person who needs to know the song, its called "First floor generator" by Freelance whales! :D
@clearlycolorful Its We Could Be Friends by Freelance Whales. Only the most f*@#ing awesome, chillest, indie bands in this whole entire vernacular world! Isn't it just magic~ :D
@clearlycolorful It's "Generator 1st Floor by Freelance Whales! Awesome band! If you like this you'll love the records "Starring" and "Generator 2nd Floor!"
@clearlycolorful Generator (First Floor) but if your a real music listener you'll get their whole album and listen to it all the way through! They are the best! Especially live!
@clearlycolorful First Floor Generator by Freelance Whales. they are my favorite band and im obsessed with Starbucks and when i saw this commercial i screamed of happiness!!!! Just when i thought i couldnt possibly fall more in love with starbucks........... <3
