Music in Marketing: Weber “You Light Me Up”


Jingle writers do not get the credit they should. A good jingle is one of the most powerful tools in all of marketing. In Weber grills’ latest commercial, they have set a new high. Apparently it cost too much to license an actual Black Eyed Peas‘ song, so the Weber Grill people put it to some professional song writers to write a sound alike track. What they came up with was “You Light Me Up”. The track is so good that I think they should force these song writers to turn it into a full length track. Check out the 30 second song and tell me you don’t want to hear two minutes more of this infectious jam.

    Catchy tune but I’m surprised the copycat lawsuit hasn’t been filed yet, which it might if released as a single.

  • Brent says:

    I ‘new high’? More like a new low. Weber shamelessly ripped off I Gotta Feeling, and the jingle writers should be embarrassed by their lack of originality.

  • Dorothy says:

    Yes, yes, yes!!! I love this song! Make it into a full length song!!! Thanks!
