hi, I' dont to speak English.

Oi, gostaria de saber qual a musica que toca na chamada do comercial do programa Defensores de Baleia (Whale Wars) no Animal Planet?

Estou a procura deste tema musical, já sei que não é Muse - Knights Of Cydonia e nem The Smashing Pumpkins Bullet With Butterfly Wings. não é a musica do programa e sim do comercial. tem uns "gritos" até semelhante a Smack my Bith do Prodigy.

Obrigado

Unfortunately, it's not off any album. It was created specifically as a score cue for film/tv/commercial use.

[vikkeharper]

I have also been wondering where that beautiful voice originated. Just a small snippet is not enough!! I want the whole song track! Oh, well.

[rmkane1]

The vocal was created specifically for FILM & TV placements. It is controlled exclusively by a Music Library called Associated Production Music and not for sale on itunes. If you go to their website and search under GUEST MUSIC SEARCH "Tiocfaidh", click on "track title", it is track 1.

Thank you so much for this info! I've listened to it and passed it along to others asking about this song. It was this song, in this ad, that got me to watch Whale Wars for the first time. I guess advertising works, when done right. :-)

[worldwar2madman]

what the fucking hell! why are they putting up whaling wars on animal planet. stop fucking killing the fucking whales you fucking twat-faced whalers!

This a lovely gaelic song, I just got online to look for it too, I saw the commercial its a beautiful sounding Gaelic song, Id love to add it to my myspace page. Cant find it at all.

[Ferociousfeline2002]

The lyric is "Tiocfaidh ár lá" Gaelic translated as "our day will come" Not sure about the song... but that might get you started

I just spent 3 hours going through Karen Matheson songs on YouTube and couldn't find this song! I really want to know what it is.

Reply from Animal Planet-

"While our databases contain a great deal of information, unfortunately,

they do not contain information regarding the music used in our programs or

commercials. However, the music is usually listed in the show's opening or

closing credits. Also, we recommend directing your search to the Internet,

WTF..how can they not have that info, ugh!

[PeaceLoveEtc]

thank you so much for contacting them! but they're wrong, why a song in an ad be in the opening or closing credits.

and you are definitely right about Karen Matheson, i was thinking about maybe contacting her people, they might know.

[buail21]

No Prob! I know, I thought it was weird they wouldnt have the answer. Contacting her record label is a good idea tho.

[buail21]

Ive officially contacted the discovery animal planet network with the question and I will keep you posted lol!

[buail21]

I have been searching for it! I know for a fact 100% its Karen Matheson, she is from Scotland and the song is in Scots-Gaelic, however I cannot find the song to save me..

[Rabbishlover]

Poor whales!

[TennisChamp59]

I REALLY want to know too! Someone find out the name of this song!

[AnimeFoxx]

It's such a beautiful song. I'm searching too. I'll be sure to comment if I find it :)

[MedicalOfficer]

Gah, I was hoping someone knew this song's title. I'll comment if I find it out.

[buail21]

[lilpuglet123]
