I’m a bit of a sucker for hearing snatches of songs in an advert and then immediately wanting to get hold of it.
Sometimes it’s not so tricky. If enough of the lyrics are played then it can be fairly easy to find the tune by using google to search for the song’s words - there’s normally enough sites detailing song lyrics to make it appear.
But for those times when that doesn’t work than I’ve found a site to help. It’s called Commercial Breaks and Beats and hails itself as The UK Television Advert Music Database.
You can find it here.
And for any of you wondering what the song is that’s playing in the mobile phone advert where the man keeps being transporting back to work away from his sweetheart it’s The End by Nancy Sinatra.
