The song "Matchstick Men," performed by the band Status Quo, draws inspiration from the artwork of British painter L.S. Lowry, known for his depictions of industrial scenes and matchstick figures. The song reflects themes of working-class life and the gritty realities of urban existence, much like Lowry's paintings. The title evokes the simplistic yet poignant representation of people in Lowry's art, highlighting the struggles and stories of everyday life.
What else can I help you with?
Background music in the target commercial?
There are many Target commercials, but for the May-June 2011 Target commercial, the background music is from "Pictures of Matchstick Men" by Status Quo. This was the only hit Status Quo had in the U.S., in November 1967. Interestingly, two versions of this song were made, mono and stereo. The wailing "wah-wah" guitars are only heard in the mono version(and in this commercial). The lyrics for this song can be found on Lyrics.com. The "matchstick men" that are sung about repeatedly in this song refer to the people in the paintings of L.S. Lowry, from England. He painted large landscapes, but the people in the paintings always appeared small and without detail, hence, matchstick men.
