Arcade Fire has a song stolen for a commercial yet again, this time it’s ‘Reflektor’
Does this new PokerStars commercial sound familiar? It should. The song in the background sounds quite a bit like Arcade Fire’s Reflector. Several people have called PokerStars out for this in the YouTube comments, and PokerStars were quick to respond saying the song is called Our World by Andre Abshagen. A google search for that particular song comes up with almost nothing prompting me to believe PokerStars said “hey Andre, give us something that sounds like Arcade Fire’s Reflector. Thanks!” Listen for yourself below:
