Summer Event Ad Song?

What is the name of the song in the Mercedes-Benz Summer Event Radio ad? It is very catchy.

Who sings it?

Great song - I was in a rock band years ago and we used to play that.

I guess if I want to hear that ad, I'll have to give NPR a break and see if the AM radio works

Sings? I remember it as an instrumental...

Yeah by the way, they are totally "americanizing the car" first it will be the ads with american flares.
Soon the entire car will be American made over, Im not liking the trend here. Go back to your European roots.

I don't think MBZ will ever leave its European routes...but if they would of just shown the car driving around Munich, it wouldn't of struck such a chord with the public.

BMW released a retarded "we rethink stuff" commercial or something like that.

I love the MBZ commercial, it is trying to attract younger crowds to the lineup.

BMW is a yuppies car,
MBZ is an established, distinguished persons automobile.

Big diffrence.
