Sometimes they play great music on TV commercials.

Go to this page: http://www.cezame.co.uk/liste_titres_album.php?id_album=950

Click on track 6 on the RHS.

Nice innit?

Now tell me which current TV commercial it is used with.

I'll give you a clue: it's a car commercial.

Isn't the quality of the track amazing?

Ah it's the Citroën Grand C4 Picasso advert with the floaty spacemen - I love that. I agree - that music is wonderful.

Easy - the Macbook air, Elbow's One Day Like This. Class act, class band and a song that's become an anthem. Absolutely love it.

Well done, EllieB - spot on!

Some of the UK's most creative film-making talent is employed in the production of commercials. And while 99% of commercials are fairly ho-hum, every once in a while something comes along which is really special. Either visually, or the music attached to it, or ideally, both.

One of my favourites at the moment is the First Choice "All You Can Is All We Do" tv commercial. Firstly for the imaginative spectacle of the advert - wouldn't that just appeal to kids? - but also for the music.

Watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8ukh40X8vU

This advert is a development of the previous year's advert using the same track. I loved that one at the time too:

Can you believe, 280,000 people searched on YouTube, simply to watch a tv advert!

Both these First Choice ads have a 1m duration, so they will have been big budget.

A quick look behind the scenes of a production in progress & John Lewis has come up some great adverts with a great choice of music

Norv, that clip was absolutely stunning! Have already sent to everyone on my mailing list :-) Thank you for posting.

I still think this is one of the cleverest tv adverts ever, but shame about the horrible obscene comments below the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ku5MW-Ks4w

Advert shows protective father taking care of his little girl during the early years of her life…and then continuing the process in her late teens by buying her a 'safe' VW Golf. The great track really adds to the story.
