He has been in the limelight so often for things other than music that it can sometimes slip your mind that this guy really knows how to rock. Geldof has the charisma that’s part of the job description of all great rock ’n’ roll frontmen, avivid latest presence that draws the eye and makes you hang on his every word. He’s blessed with patter, too with an easygoing manner that has a hint of steel – clearly, this is not a man who suffers fools gladly. Bearing this in mind, it’s hardto gauge whether Geldof is kindly in- dulging the man or whether he’s album setting the fellow up for a fall when he invites a local Stars in Their Eyes imitator on-stage to sing i Don’t Like Mondays. Geldof and his band have just finished a tremendous, New songs satisfy fans vital version of the song that has all the impact and immediacy of the GOMEZ could live to be a recorded original, and when the million years old and they ROCK would never, ever be cool.

It evokes the strongest emotions almost inexplicably, leaving listeners unaware of its more complex, indecipherable mechanisms. It may make listeners feel angry, dejected, joyous, or even a mixed, nuanced emotion that they are unable to describe. Advertisers, aware of music’s ability to elicit particular thoughts and sentiments, use it to their advantage. A commercial for Coca-Cola depicting a group of elated friends drinking its product may feature bubbly, cheerful music. An advertisement for Harley-Davidson’s motorcycles could incorporate boisterous classic rock to convey its message. The purpose of this project is to explore how music in advertisements affects consumer perception of the advertisement itself. It additionally explores both the conscious and subconscious tactics that advertisers deploy when selecting music for their content. It covers the various functions of music and how advertisers use them, theoretical concepts within music and how they work in conjunction with advertisements, and a discussion of how music’s emotional characteristics affect consumers’ beliefs about a brand.
