The WTF Post!

Was on YouTube earlier, showing Viki one of the Hamlet Cigar adverts (all because my brother was telling her about the Hamlet music yesterday), and then I started finding other adverts from the past... and then I came on one that said something about "The Funniest Beer Advert Ever", so we clicked PLAY... Absolutely brilliant!

And this leads me on to a plea... and a possibility for a regular post (if Lou doesn't mind that I'm nicking her idea) - great adverts of the past and present (I'll warn you, most of the ones I'm thinking of are for various beers!).

Anyway... The plea! Does anyone know where I can get the music from this classic McEwan's Lager advert?

It's by an Edinburgh band, Win, from the late '80's and is called "You've Got The Power". I can't find it on iTunes. Anyone got it that they can send me? Drop me a comment and I'll get back to you. Thanks!

I don't mind Ally :) I've got a stack of ads lined up so we might clash at times.

I had a look for that track but no luck as yet I'm afraid. If you can find a video of the track on YouTube etc, I can rip an an MP3 from it.

Update - now in possession of MP3 some very nice person had it on YouTube. I'll send you the download link via Facebook as SN appears to be down again.
