Songs For Saturday: As Heard On TV - Britney Spears, Pet Shop Boys, Beach Boys and Rogue Traders

 


Today's theme for Songs For Saturday is "As Heard On TV" featuring songs that have made appearances in TV shows and commercials. 

First up is Britney Spear's "Toxic" which made a surprising appearance at the end of the Earth in the 2nd episode of Doctor Who Series 1. 




Next up on today's playlist is the Pet Shop Boys with "Opportunities", a tune that has come to renewed prominence from its use in an Allstate commercial. 


Here's a deep dive into the Beach Boys' discography with a tune called "Darlin"  which got a new lease on life when it became an earworm stuck in Sheldon Cooper's head in the Big Bang Theory episode, ""The Earworm Reverberation"



Wrapping up today's playlist takes us back to Doctor Who where at the end of Series 3, the Master is ready to subjugate the Earth and unleash hell to the sound of drums to the sounds of "Voodoo Child" by the Rogue Traders. 


I hope you enjoyed today's play list. 

Until next time, remember to be good to one another and to always keep the music alive.
