Overview
- The ROG Xbox Ally launch trailer features a deconstructed take on Bruce Springsteen’s “Dancing in the Dark” sung in a tenor voice that resembles Geese frontman Cameron Winter.
- Pitchfork reported the identification based on auditory similarity in a piece published Friday and invited listeners to judge for themselves.
- Neither Winter nor Geese has acknowledged any involvement, and their representatives did not respond to requests for comment.
- The trailer’s description lists no music credits, and no licensing details or official statements from ROG, Xbox, or Microsoft have been reported.
- Coverage situates the spot alongside recent Geese promotion and recalls Brian Eno’s May criticism of Microsoft to frame ongoing questions about artist–brand collaborations.
