    This has been driving me mental all morning. A friend of mine who lives in America now sent me this YouTube clip and said:

    "this has been wrecking my head, What advert was this in?"

    Sorry about that! :o

    I have an image of a car cruising down a main street, with a guy winking & pointing at women (Lotto, HB, Jacobs are in my mind). I'm on my 12th listen now.....not the worst song to get stuck in your head.

    Sounds like something that would be used in a Jeans commercial.

    The more I listen to it, I'm almost certain it was a Club Orange ad. Although I can't remember which one.

    Club Orange sound right to anyone else?

    I have an image of a character (non-human) walking down a road and all girls stopped in their tracks, and stared at him.

    I think this is why I initially though "Softmints" - I had the "Mr Soft" character in my head.

    Yup. Almost certain it's Club Orange. An ad set in a park from about 10 years ago.

    It was either about a guy thinking a hot girl was waving at him but was really waving at her friend or about a guy trying to hit at a bee but a hot girl thought he was waving at her.

    It's 11:54 now. I've been listening to this on repeat since about 9:30. I AM AWESOME.

    If Iam wrong about this, I'm not sure I want to be corrected ;)

    I was hoping that someone would have solved this. It's been kinda bugging me since I heard it!
