You should all know it.

Bedouin Soundclash : When The Night Feels My Song

Its a Reggae track, very Bob Marley, and you should all know it from the T-Mobile advert where all the buildings and vehicles 'flat pack' as the people are walking along.

If you're unsure, check it out on iTunes or some other sampler.
Its these kind of songs that get brought back to life from years ago that make number one/do extremely well. And for some reason, it seems to be phone adverts that do it. Ive seen about 3 or 4 songs from phone adverts come back onto the scene from like 5-10 years ago. Cant think of them specifically right now but anyway.

I'm not really into Reggae personally, but i love this song.

The Only Ones - Another Girl Another Planet

"Space travel's in my blood, there ain't nothin' you can do about it..."

Adverts have always made songs popular, not just mobile ads. Like that Levis song Spaceman from ages ago.
