Title: M Ward commercial feat. Jim
Post by: aMD on Dec 21, 2006, 09:34 AM
I saw a really cool commercial last night featuring "Magic Trick" by M Ward.  I'm almost positive Jim contributed vocals and guitar for that one.  the commercial was basically a music video that featured nearly the whole song and the company's logo at the very end.  The company is Zune, which from what I can tell sells mp3 players.  You can watch the commercial on the company's website.  Here's a link (it's listed as SSSR by M Ward):

Thanks aMD! It sure sounds exactly like Jim. Btw,  I love this tune, it sounds like a modern/retro classic!

Alt. version of Magic Trick in full here:
http://aquariumdrunk.blogspot.com/

"The M. Ward A side, "Magic Trick," with My Morning Jacket's Jim James supplying guest vocals is an alternate version from Ward's Post-War album with an even further understated production element. Perfect for all y'all completists out there."
