Identify those songs I recognize in TV commercials

its one of my all time favourites.

I’ve seen this advert a few times now ..

and i luuuuvvvv this song .. hard to believe its nearly a year since i last posted an entry on here by the same organisation, that time it was all about Christmas and a cute little kid .. this time it tells the story of love and relationships through time and whatever else happens people will always fall in love .. the company compares this to the promise it made to its cutomers in 1925.

As much as i love Paloma Faith whose singing this version, heres the original ..

Marks and Spencers is a well known leading high street department store in the UK .. theres a sweet little story about its beginnings too .. set up in the nineteeth century by a polish jew called Michael Marks and an English bookeeper called Thomas Spencer .. it started out as a penny bazaar with a small sum of money lent to Michael Marks and so began the beginnings of the high street chain of department stores that we know so well.

Turn up the volume ..

I saw Joss Stone perform this tune with James Brown .. totally awesome.

Every time I hear this advert it makes me want to boogie ..

Not quite a teenager when this was released but i can quite see ..

Marc Bolan the stuff of teenage dreams .. :) .. fruit juice seems alittle bit tame for this lyrical artist.

o2 is a mobile phone network .. my son works for them and my phone contract is with them but thats not why my ears perked up when i first heard this tv commercial, it was this girl’s voice ..

Originally written by Malvina Reynolds in 1962 .. she was dubbed the ‘poetess of protest’ .. her words are about suburban development and the conformist attitudes that went with it .. this is her version ..

o2 changed the lyrics towards the end of the song to bring out the positivity and possibilities if we seek the changes of doing things differently and is performed by Sniffy Dog and Adrienne Stifel.

Twinings has done it again and how can anyone fail not to know this song ..

This well-known Fleetwood Mac song is covered on the advert by this girl ..

First i heard the piano, then the voice its kind of soothing .. its used on a thomson holiday advert displaying beautiful images of golden beaches, crystal blue waters and striking sunsets .. i can close my eyes and imagine myself far away

Where is my mind originally sung by the pixies and covered so many times .. this one is Sunday Girl’s cover ..

Everytime this advert comes on everything seems so much brighter, its such a happy little tune ..

A recording by the Turtles released in 1967 appropriately called ‘Happy Together’ .. the song is double the time of the advert but theres not much more to it !!
