BP - Babies commercial

Summary: Cartoon babies drive to a BP gas station.

Video:

Description

The babies (Abby, Michael, Frankie and Sal) are driving happily when they notice they're low on fuel. They pass by a bunch of run-down gas stations, but finally stop to refuel when they get to a BP station. It is lit up brightly with white and green colors, and the gas pump whistles cheerfully to the music that is playing.

The commercial promotes BP's new Helios Power campaign.

Text:
gas stations, a little better, baby

The music was written for BP by Beacon Street Studios. The song is performed by Message of the Blues, and there is another version of the song entitled "LA". Check out their myspace page - http://www.myspace.com/messageoftheblues

Lyrics:
Say hey
Make the day a little better
Say hey
Make the way a little better
Say hey
Say hey, a little better
It's the place where I want to be
Say hey
[whistle]
Make the day a little better
Say hey
[whistle]

They ran off without paying for the gasoline, and now are sitting in a correctional facility for minors.

I wrote to Beacon Street Studios, and they said they'd be releasing a full length version on an upcoming album. As soon as we know, we'll update the info here.

say hey...when will the full song come out, or is there one?!?

I'd like people not to jump to conclusions with Message of the Blues. I'm trying to confirm this but I believe Message of the Blues is a codename that Beacon Street Studios is using, and is made up of Beacon Street members Andrew Feltenstein and John Nau. The song "LA" hasn't been released for sale yet, and I'm still trying to find out more about that.

They are now selling the song through Indie911/Hoooka - http://www.indie911.com/directory/alt-rock/message-of-the-blues
