Volkswagen makes statement on Beach House accusations
In a Wall Street Journal article Volkswagen was asked about their commercial that sounds exactly like a Beach House song. They had this to say, and we aren’t buying it:
“We greatly respect the talent of Beach House and never set out to replicate a specific song of theirs or anyone else’s. Most important to us was to find a track which matched the narrative of the advert, telling the story of the daughter’s growing up and the evolving relationship with her father, and we believe we have achieved this in the final edits,” VW said in the statement.
