K.Michael Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Does anyone know what the song is from the Pole Position ads? It doesn't sound like the song from the old cartoon, but I also can't find it anywhere else. Was it written just for the ad? Does anyone know the band?

Nutsy Doodleheimer Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I tried googling it, but no results unfortunatley. It was probably a local bar band or some unknown group. I know this was only written for the ad. I however thought this commercial was awesome and hilarious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Ewww... skid marks on your soul? Great commercial! Never saw it before - thanks for sharing. Music reminded me a little of Nugent's Cat Scratch Fever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss 2600 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Found this on Wikipedia: "The game was also featured in a TV commercial shown only on MTV (originally called Music Television). It was part of a series of TV spots that Atari created in the 1980s exclusively for MTV.[13]" The reference was to this site: http://digthatbox.com/classic_1980s_atari_mtv_commercials.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
