    Spot on Simply Red.. played it through my iPhone speaker into the application Shazam and got this:

    One of the best reasons to have an iPhone... it's so fecking accurate too so if anyone needs any tunes recognised, give us a PM with a sample, or link to a sample.
    This one has been killing me for a while. Keep hearing it around but can't remember what it is. Sounds like film music:



    Starts around 1:39 if you can't sit through Jeremy Clarkson. :)
    Ran yours through Shazam and got this:

    Video for song in YouTube below:



    Any more challenges for it?! :D

    Dancey song-

    woman sings "what do we do?"

    Man raps (english accent) "usually drink, usually dance..."

    woman sings "all I wanna do, is tell you I love you" Or something similar..

    Its a new ad for some sort of cheese....with a kid coming home from school in the rain and sitting at the kitchen table with a cloud over his head....

    Sounds kinda like Regina Spektor....lyrics were something like "Why do birds fly when dragons breathe fire" or something.

    It's Vivienne Long. She's a cello/piano/singer/writer player. She used to play with Damian Rice. She had an E.P out about a year ago called bird-song. The song on the ad is called Happy Thoughts. It's not on the EP. But she does play it regularly live. She plays live often...Whelan's etc. and crops up in the Dundrum monthly Bamboo sessions. She's at present recording her first album.
    She's a bit twee (D. Rice seams to have a bit of a penchant for whimsical twee birds). This isn't to under-rate V.long's ability in bringing a tune together and her live shows are affordable and worth a pop in. I just wish Ireland could produce someone that can write like her but have big balls in their personality. Makes the live viewing less cringy.
