Dream Satin Liquid Foundation from Maybelline

Dream Satin Liquid F..
Watch the ad…

I have no problem with this advert (except that I still find it odd that women paint their faces) and I swear I am not picking on Maybelline (I wrote a post a while back about Reece Wetherspoon and Maybeline) but for such a large company you would think that they would just pay the money and buy the rights to use On The Radio by Regina Spektor, rather than making a piss poor Poundstretcher version which could be confused with some one smacking a piano with a fish whilst wailing at the same time.

Click below and close your eyes and listen to how it should be.

whowhat

I knew it was her…. I would hear the beginning of this ad, get a little excited, and think “That sounds like On the Radio, but noooo.. it doesn't.” and then “Why??”

It's like those new Comcast commercials that are ripping off Kimya Dawson..

bleh.

I completely agree! You're the only person on the internet who has actually noticed this according to Google. I'm half tempted to write to Regina - she must be livid. It's a SHITE version too . I just saw the ad now and was nearly sick! Hear hear!
