Haven't found the answer to this one yet, but here's a better quality video link for the "Features" ad:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2W_B3VR4G3s The song is used in other recent Verizon/Palm Pre ads too, such as this "Sticky Notes" one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2uhBNBbrhU |

According to the YouTube comments the father is Anthony DeSantis and the daughter is Elsie Fisher. Will double check this, then add the credits to the page. |

Topic: Ad Forum /
Song availability
At the YouTube page for this ad, I found this comment particularly amusing:
--- shebbumpin: I just stopped my evening and spent a half hour googleling who made the newest kindle song. Can someone up at amazon make some power plays and get Marcus and Ashley on iTunes already?? We're demanding over here! --- Maybe they're trolling, or maybe they're really blissfully unaware that the last thing amazon is going to do is to make a song that's custom-made for them available at their competition - the iTunes store. There's a chance it might be available in amazon's MP3 store sometime, but don't hold your breath about it being sold at iTunes. |

Song availability
The song was written for the commercial. As of the time of this posting, I'm not aware of amazon making this song available for download or purchase.
Their previous stop-motion Kindle commercial had another song by Annie Little, and they sold that song in the amazon MP3 store. But that one has since become unavailable and this new one is not even listed. |

Can't find a video for this ad, but pretty sure the premise is a kid is playing a driving video game, and the voice-over talks about new drivers on the road. 99% sure it's for the Hyundai Tucson and that the classical song is "La Gazza Ladra" by Rossini. |

Actor in geico commercial
Pretty sure it's not him. We can look into this, but wanted to correct the spelling of the actor you're referring to - Alan Dale.

This one? Where the woman gets her hair done but it gets all messed up when she rides in the Jeep.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1IMXtpN5fo A YouTube comment says "Vaporizer- Vick Lavender feat peter Jericho" And there's a link to: http://www.traxsource.com/index.php?act=show&fc=tpage&cr=titles&cv=30552 Which includes information about the song and the ad. |

It's my understanding that the commercial was from 1991, which makes sense since the Super Nintendo / Super Famicom came out around then.
Here's a web site that talks about this ad and the song: http://zeldapower.com/index.php/features/articles/lttp_-_the_commercial_to_end_all_commercials.php To summarize, it's by a Japanese hip-hop group Scha Dara Parr, based on their song "Game Boys". They redid the lyrics for the ad. |

Topic: Site Suggestions /
how to use this site?
To address what I think might be the confusion, the "Ad Forum" is for topics associated with ads already in our database. For convenience of browsing the existing topics, it's included on the forum list page, but you can't add new topics that way, since every new topic needs to be associated with an existing ad. So, as I explained in my previous response, if you browse or search our site to find the specific ad you're looking for, you can ask your question from the link on that page.
All the other forums (e.g. Open Song or Open Actor) can have new topics added from the forum view. |

Step 1 to asking a question here at splendAd is registering in our forums. And you've done that.
Next, Is it a question about an ad that's already in our database. If so, you can go to that page and click "Ask Question". (near the bottom of our ad pages) If the ad isn't already in our database or you're not sure then go to our OpenActor forum and create a new topic there. Just make sure to provide enough information about the commercial. |

We used to have information for this Kohler ad "Music was composed by Pete Nashel at Duotone Audio Group."
However, we received feedback from someone who wrote to Duotone, who said they didn't do the music. We will try to confirm that. In the meantime, the credits have been taken down. |

The Hutch/Vodafone ad with the pug uses a song "You and I" composed by Rupert Fernandes for the ad.
http://www.business.in.com/article/real-issue/dog-sense-in-jingle-jungle/1452/1 "... there was a disagreement between Rupert Fernandes, the composer of the 'You and I' tune, and Vodafone. ... Vodafone finally agreed to pay Fernandes more than 40 times its original offer price." |

Honda Civic Nation
We received feedback asking about the song in the ad here: http://www.civicnation.ca/united.php
The site itself is a promotion for Honda to mix beats and instrumentals to make your own song. I'm not sure if the song in the ad is specially made or is derived from the samples. The samples available in the mixer were created by Saukrates. Here's info from http://www.civicnation.ca/faq.php?language=en How are Saukrates and DJ Starting from Scratch involved in this project? Saukrates and his team produced all the loops exclusively for this mixer. Both Saukrates and DJ Starting from Scratch will judge the top 10 tracks as voted by the Nation, and pick one winner. That winner gets two weeks of airplay as the intro to Starting from Scratch's "Traffic Mix FlowShow" on 93.5 Flow fm. |
