What commercial song can't you listen to anymore?

Vice Admiral
I seriously, seriously hate Modern English's I Melt With You because of the Taco Bell commercial. Blargh! But on the good note, I love Ludo's Love Me Dead due to its use with House. Fantastic song.
 
The freaking cheese commercial has forever ruined Captain & Tenille's "Love Will Keep Us Together" for me...
 
DSF ruined rockstar not sure but the firm might have just gone under but i could be getting confuse with MFI.
 
In my first year of university I roomed with a guy who played the Greatest Hits of Diana Ross and the Supremes over and over for days. I can't listen to anything by her now, with or without the Supremes.
 
"Bad Moon Rising" ruined by K-Tel for one of the first late-night "music collection" commercials, ironically, The Best of Creedence Clearwater Revival.

Also, the jingle "Nationwide is on your side." I want to throw my shoe at the TV.

And virtually ANY song that Microsoft tries to be "hip" with. They'll always be a bridesmaid and a follower.

Bob Seegar-"Like A Rock" I will never listen to the actual song again-ever.
I never liked that one much, to begin with.

I honestly can't think of a song I once liked which has been ruined for me by a commercial, but that may mainly be because I mentally tune out the overwhelming majority of commercial content. It might as well not even be there, for all I notice it.
 
I never really listened to Surfin Bird by the Trashmen, but after Family Guy this week, I don't think I ever want to again.
 
^They're national nowadays. I don't think that used to be the case 20+ years ago, but I'll bet they went national as a result of WGN becoming a common cable channel.
 
Back in Black - Iron Man did it in for me.

That's funny, because while it was used in the trailer, I'm pretty sure the vast majority of Iron Man television commercials used "Cochise" by Audioslave.
 
A shitty song is a shitty song regardless of which advert it's been in. If I can't listen to it it's because it's rubbish.
