wimbeldon musique

[trouble16]

what is the msuic to the new wimbeldon ad, the music is fairly new and its the one with the two tennis players and one of them falls and breaks, like a china doll. it goes sumthing like:

" i was 5 and he was 6"

" i wore white and he wore black"

" he shot me down"

"bang,bang"

"my baby shot him down"

I thought it was Cher who did the original. I know Crazyhead do a great cover of it

[netibiza]

I agree it was Cher.

Not sure which was the original, but it was certainly Cher who had the big UK hit with it many years ago. However, Nancy Sinatra also recorded it and it is her version that has recently been heavily sampled (well, virtually remixed really) by The Audio Bullys.

o.k thanx guys  will look into it, do you know if she/them have released an album or are atempting to?

[littleoldme]

Depends what you want, really. The Nancy Sinatra-only version, called Bang Bang, is on a 1995 album called How Does That Grab You, which seems to still be available. Cher's version is available on both The Very Best of Cher and Cher: The Greatest Hits.

The version by Audio Bullys & Nancy Sinatra, called Shot You Down, is only a single at the moment. I guess they will be doing an album soon, but it's not out yet. They do have an earlier album, from 2003, called Ego War.

I need a lie down now. :-)
