Target

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know what song that is, in the new Target commerical? With the sandals, bikini, etc..?

I believe that is an original composition, but I'll see what I can find out for you.

Hey, since you're looking into it, would you mind telling me where I could look up another Target ad? I've received mixed answers on my question about the Swell ad, one person said it was commissioned for the commercial and someone else said it was "Havanna Horn" by Eat Static, but according to the band they sing no such song. If you have a source or know of a way to find out for sure about Target's ads I'd love the info. Ta!

[ragingfish]

Yup, lemme see what I can dig up for ya!

[ragingfish]

I was unable to locate any info on either ad on the web anywhere...I have e-mailed target with both your questions, and will post the response here as soon as they get back to me! 8)

Are you talking about the one with "Complicated Fun", by Minneapolis' "Suicide Commandos"?
