Jack White's Coke ad leaks online

Jack White's song for a Coca-Cola advert has leaked onto YouTube, with White previously defending the commercial as a songwriting opportunity.

That previously reported Coke ad featuring a song by Jack White has been leaked onto the internet, and is currently available to view on youtube.com. The track glories in the lyrics: "It's the right thing to do, and you know it, it's inside of you, so just show it, love is the truth."

When justifying his decision to write the song for Coca Cola the star told NME.com last year that far from selling out to a multinational for lots of cash, his decision was all about the love, saying: "I've been offered the opportunity to write a song in a way which interests me as a songwriter. I certainly wouldn't want a song that I'd already written to be used on a commercial. That seems strange. But to be asked to write something particular along one theme of love in a worldwide form that I'm not really used to appealed to me. I've written a song and I wrote it really quickly and it's an interesting commercial that's been made. I was inspired by the commercial."
