[James] Where can I find the version of the kids singing this song?!
 
archive
[Tim] Did you find out? I want to know to.
 
archive
[coldhandshake] I like commercial alot.: Does anyone know the media/marketing agency that produced it? I'm sure MS outsourced it.:
 
archive
[Andy] I saw this on TV. Awesome song. Awesome commercial.
 
archive
[hellaboy] Mass Effect!!!!!!!!!!
 
archive
[Patrick] WHo did this song!!!!!!!! It's funny when the guy throws the Xbox from a parachute.
 
archive
[ichi188] ha ha great commercial. i thought it was for general public then i saw the game slide and hot girl playing and knew it was for hard-core gamers! ha!
 
archive
[Mike2] they should put game slide in EBgames
 
archive
[Phillip] who sings it
 
archive
[jay1324] That song is from a band called Poison. Haven't heard the kids version before.
 
archive
[Stephen] thank you jay. ya Poison, awesome band. I think the kids version was made specifically for this commercial and that is why none of us have ever heard it before.
 
archive
[Patrick] The kids' voices in this song are highly annoying. They have a bizarre, over-reaching (southern?) accent, especially on the word "nothing." Creepy.
 
archive
[Danny] love it!
 
archive
[Alex] For reasons that are still unknown to me, I hate this commercial more than I've hated any commercial in a long, long time. The sound of children singing usually bothers me a little and I'm tired of video game commercials that don't show or have anything to do with video games but there must be more going on to make me so very angry. Something subliminal maybe? Or just something too subtle for me to recognize?
 
archive
[Albert] It's actually a very effective marketing strategy; they're trying to expand their demographic outreach with this more "fun"-looking experience depiction.
 
archive
[matt] cooooool. i want a game slide.
 
archive
[XBOXROX] Southern? LOL. That is very contradictory to my guess. I truly believe it is the African Children's Choir (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3_IMDH25jI), and I say that just because BillG and Melinda are strong supporters of them.
The kids are what make the song catchy, I don't think it would have the same effect if Poison would actually sing it.
 
archive
[Lolly] I don't care where the kids are from. I want to know where they are doing this so i can steal Mass Effect from that table and fly away on the parachute.
 
archive
[Kathy] Hi there. My kids are among those singing. We're Australian & the song was recorded here.
 
archive
[Nerida] G'day everyone! I'm the music teacher of the kids singing. We only had a couple of days to learn it and we think we did a great job! We are just kids who love to sing and we had a lot of fun doing it! Thanks to those of you who liked it.
 
archive
[iggy4mayor] If you two are really in relation with the group, would you provide a full length recording?
 
archive
[timsahjdee] id like one
 
archive
[guy] yeah, recording please
 
archive
[anonymous] hey there
the cover should be available on itunes in a couple of weeks
will swing by the message board and let you know when its uploaded
the full version is rockin :)
 
archive
[Ric] I'd love to hear the whole song by the kids too. I agree with whoever said that had Poison sang the song, it wouldn't have seemed half as cool.

Any info, Nerida? Did you guys do the whole song, or just those few verses?
 
archive
[anonymous] That was kind of strange... But atleast it's sort of creative. :/
 
archive
[anonymous] it kick ass need full song asap
 
archive
[Hannah] Nerida- That's so neat that you're in charge of the group of kids who sang the song! What a success! Congrats!

Please update when a full version will be available, thanks!
 
archive
[Andrew] HA! Here I am, an Australian in LA trying to hunt down a copy of the kids version of the song. Great to hear, I loved it!!! Go Aussie! Can't wait for the album to hit iTunes, you have a supporter here. P.S in response to an earlier comment...your right, I don't think you can get more "Southern" than Australian!
 
archive
[kag] has any one figured out how to find the whole song?

are they going to release it for download?

those kids rock, it is so much better (more original lol) than the original

if they get enough buzz maybe they will do an album of covers
 
archive
[tor] wow great commercial there is no current download on itunes yet but i think it will be available soon
 
archive
[anonymous] Anyone know what marketing company created this ad?
 
archive
[me] Give me that song!!! ahhhhhhhh!@!@@@@
 
archive
[me] evryone send a "song request" to Itunes!
 
archive
[Nick Jerkinov] Please somebody find this version of this song by any means possible...this better than the original version by Poison(not that their's is bad).
 
archive
[truth] Microsoft contracted New York based NeoAdvertising to do this commercial. They have done a couple other of microsoft's commercial including the Believe series of Halo 3 commercials. The song was made specially for this commercial and there is no record available.
Someone may Tivo it and post it.
 
archive
[Agent Spud] They tapped into something with the kids singing it. It's fresh and they should have played the song out for release.
 
archive
[ED] you bunch of idiots
who cares if you got the full song you would all be so sick of it after you play it twice and that would be end of it all
go find something better to than sit on youre as and look up tv songs
what has the world come to

[Thomas Pain] A terrible song from a terrible band.
A choir of annoying sounding kids.
A lifewasting video game.

In summary:

A grand slam of cheese garbage.
 
archive
[The Real-i-tor] the guy who said it was a new york ad agency was wrong. i saw it was a new one in san francisco call TAG. Looks like they did the Halo 3 Believe commercials too.
 
archive
[JK] i want that sooooooooong!
 
archive
[JR Loeb] I WANT THAT SONG!
IT'S SO CATCHY!
 
archive
[The Benanator] G'day everyone!
I'm one of those kids in the choir that sang.
I think we owned it!
All of those who liked it THANKS A BUNDLE!!
And Im sure (once I get famouse and win an award) I'll mention all of you!!!
'Thomas Pain' Do you even know what your saying mate??!?!?!?!?!
LoL.
 
archive
[Gigi] The best!
 
archive
[Blake Crossley] I want a copy of that song!!!
 
archive
[Gman] The song is light, fun and fresh. To all those negative comments above, lighten up! If you take something like this that seriously I have to wonder about your health. The kids singing the song instead Poison makes it positively different and lively. Thanks to the kids, music teacher and ad agency that put it together.
 
archive
[G BONE] hey gman why are you thanking these little looser they suck and now you do too
 
archive
[TP] "Gman" you've hit the nail on the head!
Nerida is the music teacher of our kids in Melbourne Australia. She also is lead singer in her own band 'Blush' which ROCKS! The kids do some awesome cover versions already at various performances. Finally to all the negative people here and everywhere G.A.F.L.!
 
archive
[asher] Nerida and TP PLEASE put that amazing song out somehow

it is absolutely fab

Or harass whomever you recorded it for and get a copy for all those of us who love it

Do you have a website for your other music and these kids singing
