Polo advert - The Spencer Davis Group
4 Answers
Is the song "I'm A Man" actually sung by the Spencer Davis Group?
I got a copy of the song (Obviously I didn't download it as that would be illegal)!!!! but it just didn't sound the same.
Any ideas?

It is common for advertising companies to re-record a version of a popular song for use in adverts.
This is for two reasons - firstly they may not be able to secure performing rights for the original, or the use of the original may prove too expensive, so a deal can be worked out for paying composer royalties, and re-recording their own version using session musicians, which is considerably cheaper.
