TV advert from 1980s/90s?

[bixa80]

Does anyone remember a TV advert from the 1980s or 1990s that had Native American Indian lyrics along the lines of - Oh, oh, aye, ee, ii, ee, ii eee, ooh - and what the advert was for?

Thanks in advance

Probably not much help but I think the lyrics were the vanishing race which was done by Johnny Cash. May help you search.

Don't know what the ad was but is the song Enigma's "Return to Innocence" here, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4NSMd7v2y4. It's a Taiwanese chant by the way.

In 1996 the song was in a television advertisement to promote the 1996 Summer Olympics.

I can remember the music but not what the ad was for. You are probably right grasscarp.

Doctor, doctor - people keep ignoring me - 'Next'!

[grasscarp]

Lankeela. I didnt notice you had already posted the answer when I added my bit. Quassia obvioulsy didnt notice you either. Have you had this problem for long?

[lankeela]

Yes, before that I kept thinking I was a pair of curtains and the doctor told me to pull myself together.

[grasscarp]

Did you also say to the doctor that you thought you were turning into Tom Jones, and he said "It's not unusual"?

Thanks for your replies. I've played the YouTube links and the song I was thinking of was Enigma's Return to Innocence.

Well done for working out what I was trying to ask in my question - I admit it did sound a bit like Old Macdonald had a farm!!!!
