Help locating a song from a commercial? (HARD MODE)
« on: January 19, 2017, 07:45:17 am »

Its hard mode because I dont know either the name of the song or what was being advertised. I recall the slogan was "share something more", and it might have been about booze. The line had been worked into the song as well but it might be an advert specific modification. The advert might be anything from 5 to 15 years old.

Can't find it. The voice sounds familiar, but I don't know who it is, and googling the lyrics only comes up with "how to end your relationship"

I could not locate it either. Went the hard way round, looking for credited attributions for the commercial, but could not get even a record of the commercial, other than the canned instance from youtube.

Try a DMCA request on the video, claiming you own the song.

Midomi doesn't come up with anything. It's possible it was written specifically for the ad. Try contacting Baileys and asking about the song?

In the comments there's some Spanish which translates as:

Somebody correct me, but in reference to the musical cut of the ad, I will inform you that it is a jingle; That is to say a music made specifically for an ad in concrete "share something more", since over the time I have tried to find it and it does not appear in any database of public songs.

You know what you should do? Get all the top 40 charts from 1997 and work back, check out all the songs. If it's not a real song, I think it's some admakers take on a popular song with perhaps a few changes.

You might not find the song, but I can bet you'll find some interesting and unusual songs you didn't know about.

It fits the commercial pretty close, are we sure it's not just a 30 second ad jingle?
