I heard it on Universal channel few years ago, in background of a commercial. It was commercial for multiple TV shows, popular TV shows that were airing at that program at that time, including Medium. As part of a commercial, near the end of the commercial, man’s voice said “They rule the world on Universal’s way” but it wasn’t part of a song. Man, young man I think was singing the song, it sounded like a pop song, pretty modern like released in 21st century, lyrics were something like “ready you ready stay awake until it’s dawn”. Does anyone know the name of that song or can you at least let me know where I can watch that commercial again it is off air now? Google and YouTube search engines were from no help at all, and I doubt that it was made for a commercial.
I’m not in the US and hadn’t heard of a TV station called Universal - do you mean NBC? I think they are the parts of the same company (NBC Universal) but have only previously heard the TV channel referred to as NBC.
If it was an NBC promo, they have a website with about 14 pages of songs that they have used in promos and on their shows. It seems that you can listen to samples of the songs, but as I’m on a dumb phone I couldn’t listen to any to see if your song is there.

Finally, I managed to find a video on YouTube… and I managed to hear the song… but I still don’t know the name.
Type “Toto je UNIVERSAL CHANNEL 2012_cz.mov” in YouTube search and you will find the video with that title, one minute and one second long, please watch it and say do you recognize the song. I would post a link but I don’t know how to do it.
Never mind.

Maybe Simona (I don’t know if that is male or female) might answer. I don’t know if they speak English, so maybe including a Czech translation might help.
I tried using Shazam on the video, but there aren’t any stretches of the song (without talking) long enough for it to grab. And the lyrics weren’t clear enough for me to Google. Sorry!
Tried some googling to no avail. Sounds like the first line is “You ready get ready, fast as she can (could?) go.”
After listening to it a few times, I’m wondering if it’s not in English but my ears are trying to hear English words.
