Simple Minds Spotify Bus Advert Featuring Virginia Turbett Photo!

Posted on April 25, 2018October 3, 2023 By Priptona No Comments on Simple Minds Spotify Bus Advert Featuring Virginia Turbett Photo!

Wow! This is just ssooo awesome! I don’t usually go gaga over advertising…but…just, the way I got into discovering them fully…it was all down to Spotify. And them using one of Virginia’s photos…it’s all just so…WOW! They are all over the country! People have been sharing pics from Bournemouth, Edinburgh, London and Leeds. I hope to spot a few myself when I travel to Worcester on Thursday.

Thanks to Martin Felton for use of the photo he took of the bus display in Bournemouth.

The Leeds bus.

And, well, I bet when Jim was writing/saying these words that he’d ever actually see himself on a bus quite like this! Metaphor made manifest!
