With all the Lindsay Lohans and Britney Spears running around is this the message Disney's clean cut girls really want to be delivering to their fans. The sad thing is that those same fans have no idea who originally sang this song. Why couldn't they just cover the Jonas Brothers and really send the crowd into a frenzy. Gander On!
A song by Shocka feat. Honeyshot entitled "Style, Attract, Play" has been banned by Radio ! after finding out it was an advertisement for Shockwave hair styling products.
The group created by the advertising firm Saatchi and Saatchi. The title of the song is the same as the current advertising slogan for Shockwave. A radio 1 spokesperson had this to say.
"The track was presented to Radio 1 in the usual way, via a legitimate promotions company and we were not award that it was a promotional tool for a hair product.
"As this is created by an advertising agency with the sole purpose of selling this product, and we do not play adverts, it is not something we would play again."
The latest in advertising trickery. I ahev to say it was a great idea but when your not upfront about things you tend to be frowned on. The song was also played by XFM as well as KISS.
Gander On!
