Various General Motors vehicles are shown in a montage, while the song "AM Radio" plays. In an interesting twist, the ad also includes a mention of XM Radio, which is offered in GM cars, trucks, and SUVs.

Sound Familiar?

I was reading a play-by-play blog of the 48th Annual Grammy Awards, and the author made a comment about the advertisements:

My favorite so far was the GM ad using Everclear's "AM Radio" (a '70s nostalgia piece which samples from Jean Knight's "Mr. Big Stuff") to have a look back at 8-track tapes and soul classics.

You can give a listen if you want to compare
