TV & Film Music—Unchain My Heart
Beer giant Anheuser-Busch has made great use of the "fire-dog" Dalmation that jumps onto the Budweiser (band)wagon in the famous Super Bowl commercial.Now Miller Lite is walking the dog. In the 2007 TV ad, "Sparky" (or "Spot" or whatever his name is), changes allegiance from Bud to Miller to the tune of the classic blues/rock song, "Unchain My Heart." "Unchain My Heart" was a Top 10 hit for Ray Charles in 1961. The version used by Miller is Joe Cocker's title cut from his 1987 album of the same name. "Unchain My Heart" was officially written by Bobby Sharp and Teddy Powell. "Sharp, a drug addict at the time, sold the song to Teddy Powell for $50. Powell demanded half the songwriting credit. Sharp later successfully fought for the rights to his song." —Wikipedia
