The National Kidney Foundation ad music sounds like Mad Men

I know that the National Kidney Foundation was probably going for a 007 kinda thing with their latest ad’s background music, but to me it sounds more like the opening theme from TV’s Mad Men. Every time the commercial comes on I think I’m in store for some sexy retro drama, but instead it’s just an ad telling me to take care of my kidneys. I don’t even know how one goes about protecting their kidneys. Not selling them to pay the rent is about as far as I intend to go in that regard.

You can watch the TV spot (“Time is Now”) on the NKF website’s media page, or download it instantly by clicking here. And just for comparison, the Mad Men intro can be seen here.

    Oh, with the fuse imagery, they might have also been referencing “Mission Impossible.” It’s…er, possible.
