Thomson advert 2011 "Time for a holiday?" 90"

A demanding job, the household chores, the school run, walking the dog... with a 'to do' list like that, is it any wonder we struggle to fit in quality time with the people we care about most? If that sounds familiar, our new TV ad will strike a chord. It shines the spotlight on spending time with your loved ones, and looks at those special moments you have on holiday together -- you know, the sort of moments that flash through your mind when you're racing through the day, ticking off jobs left, right and centre.

At Thomson, we get that holiday time is precious. It's that rare window in your calendar when you get to stop the rushing, relax, and really focus on your nearest and dearest. That's why we're the only travel company that designs holidays so that every bit, however big or small, is just right for you. Just take a look at our different ranges and you'll see what we mean. There's everything from Thomson Couples, a range of contemporary, adults-only hotels, to Thomson Family Resorts, which go all out when it comes to family holidays. It means all you have to do is sit back and enjoy yourself, with those that matter most.

@iluvshanedawson170 Where is my mind. It was originally a guitar piece by the pixies, then Maxence Cyrin did a piano adaptation, this was an edited version of Cyrin's cover. Also there is another piano cover with lyrics by Sunday Girl. Hope it helped ;) x

[iluvshanedawson170]

what's the name of that piano song ?

[TheSpillinator]

Going away with Thomson this saturday to gran canaria with my boyfriend, so excited!

@daystilljersey It's not Coldplay, or the Pixies, it's just a cover by Maxence Cyrin :)

I want to see the version where the girl swims up to the boy in the pool and surprises him and eyes go wide.
