Lowe's Commercial Songs: 'Good Morning' and 'Naked Eye'

I did a post earlier this year about a Lowe's commercial with a catchy song that kept getting stuck in my head.

Well, Lowe's is at it again, with two commercials making the rounds earworming their way into my brain.  Lowe's must be the new Apple as far as that goes.

The first commercial is titled "Fresh Cut Grass" and shows the aroma of cut grass waking someone up to go do yardwork.  The song featured is "Good Morning" by The Kicks.  

Here's the full song from youtube

It's very catchy and familiar sounding... Quite honestly I think the chorus bears a striking resemblance to Mott the Hoople's "All the Young Dudes".  Not that I'm complaining, I love that song.

The other Lowe's commercial floating around is a pretty cool concept.  It's titled "Coloring Book".  The commercial shows a man and woman in a new home, sketching out plans on their blank-canvas walls and the real things popping out.  And the girl looks just like Aubrey Plaza from 'Parks and Recreation'.

The song featured is "Naked Eye" by Oxford, and features a catchy 'do-do-dododododo' chorus.

The song itself is very bubbly and light with a quick beat.  It centers around some nice acoustic-guitar playing and a nonsense 'do-do' chorus.  But catchy nonetheless.  

I never thought I'd say this, but at this point I'm kind of looking forward to the next Lowe's commercial.

Lowe's Commercial Song: April Smith "Colors"

(EDIT - April 2nd: Looking for the newer commercials?  Check out this post)

So we finished the move for my uncle's dental practice.  Ended up getting all of the functional pieces moved and installed from the old location to the new in 3 days.  It was crazy, workmen were still going hooking things up into Sunday night so my uncle could open on Monday.  We really probably could have used an extra day or two, but we got everything done.  I just can't move my arms today, no big deal.

I've sort of been lounging around all day trying to recover.  Been doing some studying, reading, had the tv on in the background the whole time.  There is this one Lowe's commercial that keeps playing with the catchiest song.  (For anyone who may be unfamiliar, Lowe's is a home improvement store very similar to Home Depot)  It's really wormed its way into my brain, and won't get out.  The song is "Colors" by April Smith and the  Great Picture Show.

Check out the commercial here:


This is one of those scenarios where I'll probably end up buying this song, but won't be sure if I like it because it's good, or because I hear it all the time.  The classic case for that being any song used in an ipod commercial.

Oh well... I also found this acoustic version of the song, which still sounds really nice.


Now share in my pain of having this song stuck in your head.
