Music Heard in AT&T Blooming Flowers Commercial: Daydreamin'

Had a few questions about the AT&T commercial where the phones are blooming like flowers. Doma asked:
"what is the song in the new at&t commercial where the phones look like they are blooming flowers?"
And "R" also asked:
"on the new At&t commercial, the one with the high-tech flowers...does anyone know what song that is and who sings it? im not sure if it is an At&T commercial (i think it is) where the song sounds a little older and says something about 'dreaming' there are men singing and a woman that sings over them...sounds a little like Chrisette Michelle?"

Claire had the answer:
"The song in the AT&T commercial with the flowers is Daydreamin' by Lupe Fiasco featuring Jill Scott."
As did Ariel:
"its by Lupe Fiasco and jill scott"
And Beth:
"The song where the phones look like they are blooming on the at&t commercial is by Lupe Fiasco featuring Jill Scott. It is called Daydreamin' on his album. Go to Lupe Fiasco's website. you can view the whole song and video!"

Ii is indeed "Daydreamin'" by Lupe Fiasco with Jill Scott from the CD "Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor.

Thanks to everyone who helped out Doma!

Music Heard in AT&T Go Phone Commercial: Love You Till the End of Time

I just caught the tail end of a new commercial for the AT&T Go Phone with Unlimited Texting or Talk (not sure) commercial (may not even be AT&T). It had a Dad and a son in the garage singing a song together. It srarted with the father singing, then the teenage boy starts and joins him singing "I'll love ya til the end of time, I love you till the end of time!"

Well, I knew I had to post about this song. In case you don't know it, the song is homage to "Paradise By The Dashboard Light" by Meat Loaf , from the "Bat Out Of Hell" CD . The song is really long, and has 3 main sections (Paradise/Let Me Sleep On It/Praying For the End Of Time), the last of which is featured in the commercial. Great song, great CD! And by the way, I am pretty sure that is Meat Loaf himself as the Dad singing in the commercial.

And for those who are looking for the "Kelly Moore" commercial, the one where the Dad is looking for his daughter at make-out point, yelling "KELLY MOORE!!" here it is! Click Read More to see it...

Music Heard in Dancing With The Stars: Carry You Home

Aw, poor Priscilla Presley. Got sent home this week on the ABC show Dancing Wiith the Stars. But at lease we got a muscial treat. This week ABC's guest music star was none other than James Blunt.

He sang "Carry You Home"
from his new CD "All The Lost Souls." You may remember James Blunt's other hit, the highly over-played/annoying "You're Beautiful."

Now...who will be booted off next week?

Music Heard in Madonna Sunsilk Commercial: Life Can't Wait

There is a new Sunsilk commercial playing that features clips of Madonna, from some of her older videos, in very bright purple and green colors, while a great song is playing. Have you wondered what the song is? Geekzoid, from our foums, wonders:
Is there anybody who would know the song on the new commercial for Sunsilk Shampoo? It's a real bouncy, danceable song and the commercial is animated with psychedelic images like circles, a "Saturday Night Fever" guy and several of Madonna.

Hey Geekz, I can take this one for ya! The song is "4 Minutes" by Madonna featuring Justin Timberlake and Timbaland - downloadable at Amazon MP3 or iTunes If you'd like the video, you can grab that at iTunes also.

By the way, this is the first single from Madonna's new CD "Hard Candy," due out on April 29th, 2008. Pre-order it at Amazon today.

Music Heard in Kohl's Merry Go Round Commercial: Girls Riding Around in a Car

John asked about a recent Khol's commercial for 'Simply Vera" by Vera Wang: Looking for the name of a song from a Khols ad, four girls riding around in a car with the top down, sort of in a desert, they get out of the car and then go out to a merry go round that is sitting in the desert.

Bud had the answer:
The song with the 4 girls in the convertible and going to a merry go round is by America - Horse with No Name.

The song "Horse with No Name" can be found on the first album by America, titled simply "America." By the way, this song wasn't on the origingal UK release, it was added later for the USA version of the album.

Tom wrote in to ask:
What is the name of the song that plays in the toyota commercial where everyone is flying down hill on big wheels??

By the way, that is a REAL event, not just a goof for the commercial (see video at end of post). So to that, "krellkraver" had the answer:
That's "Mongoose" by Fu Manchu

This commercial, called "Anything but Ordinary," was shown in Super Bowl 42. The YouTube description:
