Are marketers soiling the Beatles’ image?

Some Beatles fans are feeling down about the latest use of a Fab Four song in a commercial — the 1967 peace anthem “All You Need Is Love” highlights a new disposable diaper campaign. “I just cannot see a Beatles song being used for trivial things … not Beatles songs!!!!” fan Andy Bonnell said […]
