somehow controversial because the kinks wanted to say with "people take pictures of each other" and "picture book" that you can only take one little consecution of your life with a photograph, but not the feelings and impressions, didn't they?
well, i like it when there's a song of the kinks in a commercial all the same!..:)
what's not the original? The song? Or the commercial? This is the 1 minute webspot. The TV spot was different. The song though is the Kinks version from "Village Green Preservation Society" not a coverband.
Picture book, ananananana, ananananana, scooby doobie doo!

I used to get so excited when this 1 minute commercial came on. It was three years ago, but feels like yesterday. HP should bring this one back.

Most effing brilliant use of images married to music, ever. Seriously. I wish I'd done this.

Don't Forget "Drivin' " , this could be for any automobile commercial.

haha- wow, green day totally stole this for their song "Warning"

well they already ripped off Chicago on the other song (forgot the name) so why not rip off the Kinks as well. :)
Village Green is one of the best albums ever and the Kinks are SOOOO criminally underrated.

lol, "Warning" is not the only time that Green Day "ripped off" The Kinks.

I think the TV spot did use a cover. Sounds like The Young Fresh Fellows from their "This One's for the Ladies" CD.

if you mean this particular rendition it´s the original one and only from "The Kinks are The Village Green preservation Society"
