Ford Fiesta Zetec advert showing at the mo

[Spikey88]

Anyone know the music used in the Ford Fiesta Zetec advert showing at the mo? sounds very 80s and is driving me nuts

If this is the advert, then the song is Walking On The Sun by Smash Mouth. If it's the other thread (In the Adverts section) started by Clare3, that one is proving harder to locate.

Is it the ad that was asked about and answered here?

Could be, judge, although that advert may have been a while ago.
I remember a car advert this weekend which featured a much more well known old song (from maybe the 80s)- but I can't now remember what it was

[Stephen_G]

It's definitely not the song Janglin'.

The advert I've seen most recently is of a car driving past a funfair and then a petrol station. I'm sure this footage has been used before, but with a different tune in the background. I think this is the one Clare3 has asked for, with the "Think, think about" lyric. The search continues.....

[Spikey88]

No it isn't any of those, it's very early 80s sound, & now my mind has gone blank for a similar sounding group lol!Thanks for the suggestions though :o)

Big Things by Fiction?

[Stephen_G]

Well done factor. That's definitely it.

This is the footage I've seen (With a part of factor's song over the top), but not the song on the vid. factor is definitely right.
