Help! car commercial song.

jdhidalgo · 09-18-2007, 08:55 PM

I heard it in a car commercial about a year ago, sadly, all i remember is that part of the commercial said something along the lines of "what if a car could do more than just get from point A to point B". I Must know the name of this song! Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated.

I remember the commercial vaguely...

But I don't remember the song. It's not Nth Degree by Morningwood, is it?

YouTube - Morningwood - Nth Degree

thats not the song, but i think i've heard it before. Anyways , i'm still struggling to find it and have reached no success, if anyone else has any ideas, or at least knows what commercial i'm talking about, please comment.

I believe the point a to point b ads were for the Land Rover / Range Rover vehicles. Though I don't know the songs for past ads, the current ad features "Do You Realize" by The Flaming Lips.

Update: Another I have found is "Have Love, Will Travel" by the Sonics.

Thanks a lot, but that is not it either, i remember it was a commercial with lots of images showing parts of the car, landscapes and other things. A man spoke throughout it(the one who said "from point a to point b") as the music played in the background. The commercial was VERY similar to this one:

Toyota Camry Hybrid Commercial

any ideas?

logan01 · 10-23-2007, 06:33 PM

Do you recall if the song had lyrics? Anything else about the song, male, female, genre, etc?

jdhidalgo · 10-23-2007, 06:53 PM

I remember that the song had no lyrics, like the one in the commercial of my previous comment, and I don't think it's too old , the ad came out about last year.

logan01 · 10-23-2007, 08:30 PM

Could it have been a Garmin gps ad that happened to include a car or are you certain that it was an auto ad?

jdhidalgo · 10-27-2007, 11:20 PM

=) good news. Not only am I certain, but I also remember a few more things. It was definitely a car, not SUV or truck, and was a hybrid. I also remember that it came out around the time this one showed up:

by the way, thanks a lot for all your help so far, logan01 & ashsashsalfaldwn

Guys, its been a while and I still cant find this song. I've posted all I remember and will post more if I can, but please, don't let this thread go to waste: If you find anything that could help, please post.

does this help http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V86wJWtP8Y

kukuhead · 12-04-2007, 06:48 PM

maybe it's in a hummer commercial

Cayman · 12-07-2007, 04:04 AM

Could it have been a Volvo?

jdhidalgo · 12-07-2007, 06:53 PM

Neither of the two, but thanks. I'll keep looking too.

atmaster · 12-08-2007, 06:24 PM

My wild guess is "From Point A to Point B" by Modest Mouse

jdhidalgo · 12-09-2007, 05:06 PM

Not that one either, but I have a great idea: if anyone knows a way of looking at a list or something similar that showed all the commercials from the past year(s), i could probably identify the one I am looking for...

so.

Any ideas?

jdhidalgo · 04-12-2008, 10:13 PM

I apologize for the double post but it has been months since this thread has received any attention.The commercial i am looking for was rarely shown during its time on tv but i know that i am not the only one who has seen it. I will greatly appreciate any ideas, suggestions or comments. Please reply.

fantasy coach · 04-15-2008, 11:05 AM

Not quite sure what you mean by a to b, but this is a great song from a car ad about a year ago

jdhidalgo · 04-17-2008, 09:08 PM

I'm pretty sure it was one of their Toyota Camry commercials, i remember hearing this:

"when does a car become more"

http://daveibsen.typepad.com/5_blogs..._decides_.html

it was also very, very similar to this commercial:

btw, thanks for the post fantasy coach.

fantasy coach · 04-18-2008, 01:08 AM

Here is another to try http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIJn2...eature=related

jdhidalgo · 04-18-2008, 01:24 PM

Ok, listen to the narrator of this commercial:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9GPyFM6lT0

THIS IS NOT THE COMMERCIAL I AM LOOKING FOR, but the things he says are exactly the same as those in the commercial i'm looking for.

C'mon guys. I cant be the only one who saw the commercial. The song was a beautiful instrumental, similar to the one from fantasy coach(previous post)...only better. Of course.

Musicismyfirstlove · 04-19-2008, 04:01 AM

Someone else 's been looking for a song as well and wrote to the agency that makes those commercials , and this was the reply he got ;
"All the Camry music was done by a music house in New York City, and was scored specifically for the spot. There is no song title, artist or album on which it could be purchased."

Had the same problem a while back with a Opel commercial , turned out to be written for the advertisement only...

jdhidalgo · 04-19-2008, 01:01 PM

i believe you, and what you say definitely makes sense, but the reason why i started looking for the song in the first place was because I had already heard it somewhere else a long time ago...If what you say is right, then i guess i wont be able to get it here. Nevertheless, thank you and thanks to everyone who posted something in this thread. It can be closed now... bye!

I'm also looking for a car commercial that I saw around middle to late 2007. I can't remember which car was being advertised - maybe a Maxima or an Infiniti or an Altima...It was at night and the man was driving while the woman was in the passenger seat. He was making sharp turns and I think she was holding a glass of water which was not spilling while he was making the sharp turns. I think she was also doing other things, like putting on makeup etc. The music was very catchy, very upbeat - problably dance music - there were no lyrics. I'm trying to get the name of the song as I think I had heard it before. Does anyone know the commercial??

SavioMo · 04-21-2008, 05:52 AM

Is this the 'Ad?
http://www.duncans.tv/2008/saab-rele...ower-of-nature

and the song Release Me by OhLaura

nate1 · 04-23-2008, 08:22 PM

no, that's not the ad. There were no lyrics and it was a techno beat - very lively, upbeat music. I have done endless searches but I can't find it and it was on just late last year, even early this year as well. I'm thinking of writing to the different car companies but i don't even know which car it was!
