Thanks mate.

I also have an old copy of Lujon, by Henri Mancini and it turns out this is what it was sampled from.

Thanks for your help.

It's actually either a rehash or blatantly stolen from of the final song in Babe (the film about the pig). Everytime I heard it, it was getting on my nerves where the song was from, and I suddenly thought of it last time I saw the advert.

Towards the end of the trailer is a version....but one more like the advert is in the film.

This is actually a song from 1977 by Scott Fitzgerald and Yvonne Keeley called 'If I had words'.

It was driving me crazy too for days and then I started to sing along to it in the shower this morning so I googled the lyrics and came up with the answer!

The music in the Thompson ad is the from the last movement in Camille Saint-Saens Symphony No.3 in C minor for the Organ, and was rearranged in modern music for the film Babe.
