Speaking with Songfacts in an interview, Iversen explained how the song got in the Apple commercial: "We have this company working for us in the States called Synch, and they got in touch with Apple. I think they had this meeting with Steve Jobs himself, and he picked that song out of the bunch and said, 'This is it, this is the new track for the iPod Touch.' Apparently he just loved that track, but we never saw it as one of our singles. We have some other songs that we thought would be great singles, and that would work cool on for the radio, but he really loved that song."
The Asteroids reached instant global exposure when their song Around The Bend was featured in an Apple iPod Touch advert in late 2008. Their music also appeared in US hit TV series Gossip Girl, CSI Miami as well as Chuck.
Around The Bend was also chosen as one of the key tracks to the R.J. Cuttler documentary "The September Issue", based on Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.
Their song The Golden Age is featured in the latest Heineken advert The Entrance from 2011.
Their first show ever was as opening act for Amy Winehouse in their local Copenhagen and Katy Perry chose The Asteroids as opener for her European tour summer of 2009.
The band spend most of 2009 touring all around Europe and the US with their six piece live band which includes trumpet, saxophone, drums, guitar, keys, bass and more...
The press says:
Addictive quirky soulful Pop Music with attitude,
sweeping musical arrangements with one of the hippest vocals around, Known for their infectious live shows, shiny, shimmering, upbeat pop, albeit with a horn-infused, slightly psychadelic edge, C-walking, up rockinโ leg-splitting and hip-shaking their way through, infusion sound like no other,
effervescent music that reminds you of a dozen glorious summerskaleidoscopic monster, bubbly and hypnotic...
At the moment they are busy recording new material for future releases and getting ready for playing their "FRUIT" spring/summer tour around the world for festivals and club shows.

Cloak & Dagger
The Asteroids Galaxy Tour Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A classified infiltration,
A secret little occupation to always keep an eye on you.
Information,
I know that I can for the right nation,
So easy got your information gonna take you out on cue.
I get high, so high till the break of the morning.
Somehow it feels like a warning.
As I'm watching the rain, I get nothing but peace of mind,
Gettin' naked for your killing tonight.
Undercover,
With shades and wake I am your lover.
Devoted to be undercover, you would never get my bluff.
I don't bother,
To live my life as if I'm another,
To blow your mind, I really don't bother, glad you got my life shake up.
I get high, so high till the break of the morning.
Nobody see me in the night.
Somehow it feels like a warning.
As I'm watching the rain, I get nothing but peace of mind,
Gettin' naked for your killing tonight.
Uhuu... cloak and dagger,
Uhuu... cloak and dagger in the night
Uhuu... cloak and dagger
Uhuu... cloak and dagger in the night
Uhuu... cloak and dagger
Uhuu... cloak and dagger in the night
Uhuu... cloak and dagger
Uhuu... cloak and dagger in the night
The lyrics to The Asteroids Galaxy Tour's song Cloak & Dagger drip with espionage and intrigue. The first line sets the tone with the mention of a "classified infiltration" and "secret little occupation." The singer, who could be a spy or undercover agent, has a mission to keep an eye on someone, and they're not above using deceit and manipulating information to accomplish their goal. The use of shades and the description of being a lover seems to suggest that the person being watched may be a romantic partner or someone the singer is using for access to sensitive information.
The chorus has a distinctly ominous tone with the line "Somehow it feels like a warning," as the singer watches the rain and prepares for a potential confrontation. The use of the phrase "getting naked for your killing tonight" makes it clear that this is a dangerous mission, and the singer is willing to put themselves in harm's way to accomplish their goal. However, it's not entirely clear who they are working for or who they are trying to take out. The repeated line "cloak and dagger in the night" reinforces the idea of secrecy and subterfuge.
Overall, the lyrics to Cloak & Dagger paint a picture of a shadowy world where nothing is as it seems, and danger lurks around every corner. The singer is on a high-stakes mission, and even they may not be entirely sure who they can trust.
