Actually, I think that the song from the Chase commercial is the version Robert Downey Jr (the actor) recorded in 2004 on his album "The Futurist" so I wouldn't say that Yes sold out. |

Nope, I heard it again, it was definitely Yes! Even if it were a cover, they'd get the royalty. So why not?

I remember a Yes song was used in the TV trailer for the Tim Burton movie "Big Fish" some years ago. Can't remember which song. I do remember then watching the movie and being disappointed that the song wasn't part of the soundtrack, though it was a pretty cool movie.

According to Wikipedia, "Flash had a minor hit with "Small Beginnings" (1972, #29 Billboard Hot 100 chart)
which was featured in the movie, Record Review."
Never saw the movie, but that's cool! Great song! Here's the newly-reformed Flash playing "Small Beginnings" in practice: Ray Bennett really nails the 6-string guitar on this tune, and Colin sounds great!!

If I ever made a movie or TV show I would have prog songs playing in the backgrounds (like if it was in someones room or car)

I've seen it crop up occasionally on that '70's Show. I think I remember Laura Prepon's character wearing a Kansas Point Of Know Return t-shirt once.

Yep, it was for the new Forza racing game.....I couldn't believe it when I saw the commercial - I actually did a 'rewind' on the DVR and watched the commercial a second time to be sure I wasn't having auditory hallucinations. |

The one with the Kanye West song that samples Schizoid Man, or is there another that actually has the King Crimson song?

'Atlas' appeared on a Honda commercial awhile back, too. And 'Music for a Nurse' by Oceansize was used by Orange. |
