TV's Chart Toppers

When DJ Fresh hit the number one spot with ‘Louder’ it made us think of Lucozade, which then got us thinking about all the other tunes that charted at number 1 having been featured in a commercial. From the faintly irritating ‘Crazy Frog’ to Aqualung’s haunting ‘Strange and beautiful’, TV ads have been making tracks legendary for years, often sending consumers out in their droves to buy the single.  As the song later thunders through the charts many of us will also think of the brand associated with it. All of which can’t be bad for advertisers, can it?
