Kia Optima Ad - Name That Tune

[Dreamer1time]

Its lady gaga...lmao

[azneck1]

Sounds like Andy's style...

[azneck1]

I'm thinking it's Andy McKee...

[youngslimgeezer]

It's not Drifting but it might be Andy Mckee.

[pittsburgh199]

i thought modst mouse with the latest one out. Although i know all of their songs besides the possible new material they are working on.

[baygeous]

I need to know what song this is. It's like a really bad itch that needs to be scratched. If no one knows, can someone at LEAST put the whole 30-seconds of the commercial so I can download it and melt to it while I shower or something?

[iamhomeagain]

i know it's stupid, but i would buy a kia optima if it promised to come with this song.

[CampRockOfficialFan]

Andy McKee -Drifting ?

[milkbox41193]

@CampRockOfficialFan hell no

[SOUTHMSD]

Jon Darling wrote this track. He titled it "Letter" but it's never been released. You can watch a few videos of Jon writing on our channel.

[KiaBUZZ]

Dear all, the music was scored specifically for the commercial. Unfortunately there is not a full music track available. Thank you for your interest.

[neohxc]

@KiaBUZZ can you guys please make a full version of this song ??

[mscottleonard]

@KiaBUZZ You guys really should have made a full track available for download. Having people drive around with "that song from the Kia commercial" buried in their playlist would have been golden for LT engagement.

Well, that's just my two cents. I came here months ago looking for the song info immediately after seeing this ad on teamcoco, and even now I still find the tune memorable. From no won this is going to be the case whenever a good ad has good music. Go with it.

[kayciandkaytee]

@mscottleonard I agree with you! AND there is a whole different Kia Commercial with a track people were asking for too and they were also told it was specifically made for the commercial only. Whoever is making the music for their videos is in high demand.

[HolyBajebeers]

A friend of mine sent me here to see if I could name the song... and I actually have it on my itunes. Though the song and artist escape me I will click through the songs this week and see if it comes up...

[rooandron10]

@HolyBajebeers well what is it?

[Jayke0108]

@HolyBajebeers Did you find out the artist and title?

[Jayke0108]

Any update on this song? I also love it and really wanna know if it is a real song, i hope someone finds it!

[ratcnc1962]

I heard this complete song/instrumental within the last few weeks. It was only when I saw this commercial that I went to the internet to find its name. And, apparently, so have a lot of people. Now I'm really curious because I've heard this tune somewhere.

[musiclovertoc]

same here, i heard the song and fell in love. its so frustrating not being able to get it!

[smooshmagoosh]

sounds like a stephen bennett really sweet tho

[00Allsmiles]

omg I've been looking for this song as well! and when I google the same commercial with different songs show up

[rawink13]

Love the music, can't find it anywhere either. Shazam can't identify it, and none of my usual sources can point me in the right direction. Oh well... if Kia would tell us who it is, maybe the songwriter/artist will get some recognition and record some tunes.

[ohsoemilyy]

ahh i went crazy trying to find this song.

[disintergrationx]

Sounds like Joseph Arthur...but I don't know either :( I really wanna know if it's a real song.

[deathismywish]

I don't know, but kia might hired Andy McKee to do their commercial music. xD

[GoldenMusicGuru]

When you figure it out, let me know. Just spent half an hour searching - no dice!

[ddbeauty20]

i love this commercial & song

[rmccle02]

It totally sounds like Iron & wine to a T, but no clue as to what the hell this track is! I'm in love with this sound clip n' dying for the whole track if there is one!!!

[tgardner227]

I'm in love with this song. I've been searching everywhere, but, with no luck. Someone's gotta figure it out!

[lax80684]

sounds like a candyrat artist

[jessissleepy]

I keep hearing this commercial and the song just makes me feel incredibly calm and content. I hope it's a full song and not just commercial music...I guess we could just loop the audio clip, but I bet that would get annoying pretty quick. :p

[oANONYMOUSo]

i can't find it either...i've tried finding the tune on shazam and soundhound but it didnt work. i tried lookin on the kia website, nada. everyone's assumptions of what the song might be didnt help either.

lol i love how we're all shitting bricks just to try to figure out what this song is. but i agree with PerfectHandVideos i feel like it's just commercial music D:

[oANONYMOUSo]

i want this mother effing song O;

[21cayao]

it sounds like a mix of mango tree by anugus and julia stone and boy with a coin by iron and wine

[ewoot]

i'm pretty sure its fast car by terry chapman

[dc9theory]

@ewoot its not fast car by TRACY Chapman

[larrydav1d]

does anyone know ittttttttttttttt i want the full song so bad

[superman2k06]

Did anyone ever find anything, just saw the commercial and I haven't found an answer yet....?? It's gotta be an actual song, the way it ends sounds like it's lending into a verse

[rhelseth]

It sounds a lot like Andy Mckee, Kaki King or another similiar artist. When I first heard it that's what I thought it was.

[drewdorman]

yeah boy with a coin by iron and wine does sound very similar. too bad its not the same song

[drewdorman]

this is bs. i need the name of this tune.

[apollorocker]

this instrumental for 14 seconds has such an awesome droning sound to it but what the hell is it? I wanna know

[skihighdon]

why doesn't the KIA franchise just tell us already!!!

[Grandmasterkw]

I hope someone can find out if this is a real song, its too awesome to never know. I've been trying forever and I can't get anything.

[rjkennedy98]

@Grandmasterkw its definitely a real song. they use to play it on the O.C.

[disintergrationx]

@rjkennedy98 I think you're thinking of "honey and the moon" by Joseph Arthur...cause I just went through all of my O.C. music and couldn't find this.

[kissofdeathisraja]

haha, i was searching for the tabs for this and ended up here... amazing what the internet allows us to do today.

[wattse2]

It sounds very similar to Iron & Wine to me.

[MikeySaint16]

i looked on the kia site but couldn't find anything :(

[TheFletch827]

I want this song. It's so captivating. Thanks for posting this, I've been trying to find it.

[PerfectHandVideos]

I've come to the conclusion that this is just commercial music. :(

[adelicatebalance0]

@PerfectHandVideos

you just broke my heart =_=

[mouse264]

Oh awesome! I'll ask on Yahoo! Answers and tell you guys if I get a result.

[notatrufairytale]

i wanna know the name of the song too! :(

[mikeemorales]

ive been trying to find this name of this song for a while now! if anything comes up, ill let you guys know. btw, shazam on the iphone doesnt work for this. -_-

[knnguyen262]

[tempxanga]
