Les Rythmes Digitales - Jacques Your Body (Make Me Sweat)
A great and catchy tune, even if you're not into electronica, heck, even my mom loves it!

Featured in Citröen's C4 commercial, which has been shown here in Europe for quite a while.

See it here: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...itroen&pl=true


And a spoof, featuring the old Citröen 2CV: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...itroen&pl=true

Yeah, that's the same with Moby's "Play" album. It was/is the most licensed album ever and pretty much every track made its way onto a movie or commercial. His music was hard to categorize and play on the radio so the commercial avenue gave him the exposure to make this album a huge success.

Well, that song is from an artist called "Chambao", whom produces a mix of flamenco and chill out.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Patriot, I appreciate your help...I was looking for that info for some time

The little snippet of music in the commerical made me want to check them out a bit more. Do you happen to know the name of the song they use in the commerical?

Thanks, cheers

EDIT - The song name is "Ahi Estais Tu"

Seems to me that Apple put Jet on the map with their Ipod commercials, that was a very well made, very cool commercial that made "are you gonna be my girl" hugely popular...
