4. "Videotape," from "In Rainbows" is used in this ad for an English homeless charity (in which a house covered with cards is seen, hmm). It's narrated by Samantha Morton.
5. A stranger ad for another charity, The National Coalition for the Homeless, uses "M1," also from "In Rainbows." In it, a decked-out model staggers through the empty, early morning streets after what looks like a hard night pounding appletinis, only to dive into a dumpster and settle in for a nap on the sidewalk.
6. While we get worked up over limply art directed "OMFG" "Gossip Girl" posters here in the U.S.A., the British equivalent of the show, called "Skins," actually crams an orgy, a guy arabesque-ing in his underpants and a suicide into the ad for their debut season, all set to Radiohead's "Nude."

I think the absolute best one is missing... Fake Plastic Trees (full track) during last 3 min of an episode of Entourage (2008). Not only beautiful but perfect for the scene (those who watch the show know)...so much meaning. Amazing. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_type=&search_query=radiohead+entourage&aq=f
