Just because a band gives their song to a commercial or a movie, it doesn't mean they sell themselvs. They just made a song, someone like it and asked their permission and they accepted because this way more people will hear of them. I like artists who make music from pure pleasure and love and that don't care about the charts and commercial side, because music comes from love not from material desires,but I see nothing wrong in having your song in a commercial as long as the song is true.

@BisayaBoii 15 Step was used in the credits for one of the movies. Not a fan of the movies, but that's the truth.

@timmay301 Of course you do. You always have a choice.

@timmay301 you choose weather to be a commercial musician and be in it for the money, or someone who does it for the love of music.
he is not saying that because he already has the money, he is saying that because he doesn't do it for the money.

Then why put your music in the shittest film of the decade, Thom? *Disappointed*

@timmay301 a lot of bands i like i didn't hear on the radio or ads. i had to use the internet to listen on youtube or downloading. if i like a cd enough i'll buy it after i download which i do regularly. the people who download and listen endlessly without buying it in the end prob wouldn't have bought it in the first place. the only part of the music industry which is being hurt is the commercial side. bands that have good music will still get recognition + make a living from music

@BisayaBoii you just did it lol
@JackLloyd17 Twilight and Radiohead should not be said in the same sentence.

well, i hate to play the devil's advocate but it's easy to be all holy when you are a brilliant musician with a soul piercing voice and an awesome band which got famous in a time where there was no downloading. He doesn't sell himself out because he has a choice. Many musicians have none.
