A few years ago I phoned Eurosport in Munich asking who and where the decisions are made for underlaying surfing films with music. The guy told me that this is done in Paris / France. My French isn´t good enough to do a phone call and negociate. Maybe here are some members who are willing to phone Eurosport in France and ask them why they don´t use real surf music instead of modern non-surf tunes??? Offer them to help with suggestions!!! RuediGer No worries Ruedi, VW does pay for the music. Rev — Canadian Surf http://www.urbansurfkings.com/ Top

The added benefit is exposing a lot of folks to surf who might not otherwise hear it. — Everybody up! https://www.facebook.com/TheHydronauts https://thehydronauts.bandcamp.com/album/interstellar-clambake Top

If you like the ad, why not leave a pleasant comment on their Youtube page. It can't hurt the surf music community.

Really like the commercial, too - it's very effective! Love this Beetle! What a great color, too - it reminds me of Adrian Smith's signature Jackson Strat, which I think is just gorgeous.
