This isn't of any earth-shattering importance, but I really like the song in the VW Vapor commercial. Anyone know who the artist is? Doug IP: Logged |

That guy had stuff on, er, mp3.com, but I can't find him now, can't remember his name. He emailed me once, but I don't have time right now to search my email accounts. :P, :( ------------------ IP: Logged |

Bog and Arse, I just looked through about 15 CD's full of mp3 con stuff, couldn't find the file. It was the music for the "Jetta" commercial, I think it is the same guy- sounds similar but for the girl singing. Rotter! ------------------ IP: Logged |

If I didn't know for myself how good a lot of the talent is on MP3c, I'd think you were crazy! The song sounds to me a bit like Drebin, ( www.mp3.com/drebin ) but I know it's not them. Doug IP: Logged |

weAponX- were you thinking of Ben Neill? He did a bunch of other VW ads. He's not at MP3c but two artists claim they sound a bit like him. I've never heard Neill myself, CD Now describes him as the "mad scientist of dancefloor jazz." Doug IP: Logged |

I don't know who does the song, but I really like it and that Vapor color is way cool.  Too bad we already bought a Beetle last year (black). Does Fisher do the Verizon Wireless commericals sounds just like her... I think it's a national commerical... Tonya www.realnetradio.com ------------------ IP: Logged |

The official VW website used to give lots of info about the music on their commercials and even had some downloadable MP3 files a few months ago. I'm not sure if they still do this, but you might want to check that out Doug. ------------------ IP: Logged |

JahNericMC- Thanks for the suggestion, but I was already at the VW site- that's where I got Ben Neill's name. Oh well, there's a lot more music out there to listen to that I know I can find... Doug PS to Tonya: Black is cool - That must be one tough looking Beetle! IP: Logged |

BEN YOU ARE THE MAN!!!  I am listening to "Renaissance Affair" at this very moment due to the power of the, uh, INTERNET. Now I think I'll buy the album. Thanks! Doug IP: Logged |

Yah that is a nice song. I don't mute the TV during that commercial... I guess it wasn't the person I was thinking of. ------------------ IP: Logged |
