Title says it all though the point is that even though the music may be something you'd normally abhore, you still enjoy the ad because of the images mixed with it.

I've done this in 5 mins and obviously forgotten tons of classics but, hey,that's your job... I don't do prep.

Public Enemy - Harder than you think for Channel 4 Paralympics


Guaglione for Guinness


Phil Collins - In the Air Tonight for Cadburys


Starship - We Built this City for 3 Network


Schla La Las - 1234 for Maltesers

Generally find the use of music I like in adverts devalues the music for me, but the use of Bach's Air On The G String in the old Hamlet cigar ads always seemed to lend itself very well.

I await the day Carmina Burana pops up on University Challenge so I can wow myself with my musical knowledge while ignoring the origins of this knowledge - an Old Spice advert.
