A Rush classic is featured in a new advertising campaign for the 2013 VW Passat.
“Fly By Night” provides the soundtrack to the latest tv commercial for the brand. The ad features a middle-aged businessman stopping at a traffic light and rocking out to the song – full air drums included.
The Passat was named the 2012 Motor Trend Car of the Year.
The title track to Rush’s second album was released as a single in May of 1975.
Rush are currently touring North America in support of their latest album, “Clockwork Angels.”
