I’ll give you one:
The Ion car commercial where they’re driving around and kids are all over swinging on dozens of swing sets, and in the end, they drive by a sign that reads, “Leaving Childhood”.
The song begins with a piano line that sounds like it’s being played on a toy piano.
That song is We’ve been had by The Walkmen
The song I’d like to know is on the only Holland America Cruise Line ad I’ve ever seen.
Anybody know that one?
Now that the work week has started, perhaps I can get more responses on this question:
What’s the song on the Holland American Cruise line ad?
Anyone?
Anyone?
I have no idea.
I tried looking it up. Nothing.
You can e-mail the cruise lines, but I don’t know how helpful they’d be. You can try it. I’ve done this with several corporations, and they almost always reply.
It would be really good to email the advertizing agency that handled the spot, but I couldn’t pin them down either. Maybe you’ll have more luck.
I found a reference on another message board that says the song is “Edge of the Ocean” by Ivy.
“Edge of the Ocean” by Ivy it is!!!
Thanks Max!
Thanks for your efforts as well Karomon.
My turn - I should know this - but what’s the piano-only song in the Cisco Systems commercial? The one that slows down and speeds up a few times (the song, not the commercial).
The commercial is one of those “We make the network that the world uses” kinda spots.
Here’s the commercial I’m referring to:

Looking around a bit, it appears it might be a orinigal composition for the commercial. It sounds really familiar though.
I’ve got one…What song is played both in the Target Swell ad and the Starz/encore spot for ** 40 Days and 40 nights**? I’d figured it was something Target made up until I heard it in the other ad.
