Brand New Mazda 3 Commercial

mctwist03 · 05-21-2008, 05:20 PM

Hi! A brand new (As far as I can tell anyway) commercial for the Mazda 3 features a great song. I figure it'd be easier to describe what's happening in the commercial, rather than what the song sounds like, so here's a rundown:

A dude bumps into another dude, and they swap keys. The guy gets the key to the Mazda, sits in it, has a moment, dude who owns the car shows up, other dude locks the doors in glee. Commercial ends.

Any idea what song this is?

Thanks a bunch.

Well, gonna bump since I've recieved no reply so far.

I just saw the commercial again. It has realy heavy bass, which is the draw, but honestly if you've seen the commercial then you'll know exactly what I'm talking about, the only variable being whether you know what song it is or not.

So, does anyone know?

Found this though, I can't testify as to its accuracy: According to Mazda "the music was post-scored specifically for the commercial. It was done by the music house Beacon Street"

I'm looking for it too. And while it may be from Beacon House. My memory says I have heard that song before. If I figure it out I will post it here.

This commercial is great because if this song! The song is a dance-like/popped out version of Sonic Youth's "Washing Machine". I have a feeling it was made just for this commercial. Does anyone have a link to this ad? I NEED to show it to someone!

Here's an alternate cut of the commercial. Is it the same song in the other version? If so, it's "You Sexy Thing" by Hot Chocolate.

It's not the Hot Chocolate song. That one I know for sure.

You may be right about the Sonic Youth song tho. I need a better sample of the original song to be sure tho. The Amazon one, is not long enough for me to tell.

Here's a link to hear all of Sonic Youth's "washing machine".... one of my favorites, from one of the best! Listen to it many, many times before making any judgments. If you know good music, this will become an instant favorite. http://www.last.fm/music/Sonic+Youth/_/Washing+Machine

Very, very cool song, and while I do hear a similar riff in the beginning. I still think there's another song out there that it sounds like. Ironically the song that's running thru my head does have a female singer. May even be another Sonic Youth track??? All I can remember of the lyrics is ...I don't wanna... But so far Google hits on that lyric have hit no artists that it would fit in.
