Animal Planet flying squirrels

[mig329]

what's the name of the song playing? the lyrics were something like (4,3,2,1, earth below us. drifting falling). the commercial has a squirl jumping off I think is a tree. i saw it on the animal planet channel. The song sounds like it's from late 80's or early 90's.

Hello, the animal planet commercials now have a song where part of the lyrics is just someone counting down "5,4,3,2,1...". I've heard this song before but never could find it. Anyone know the name of the song? Thanks.

It's "Major Tom (Coming Home)" by Peter Schilling.

Animal Planet had a commercial with 80's music in the background....maybe New Order or something. I heard it a couple of months ago, and I knew the song, it was popular, but then it escapsed my mind, and I still can't think of the name :/

I could be wrong but ...

I seem to recall the use of ...

Peter Schilling - "Major Tom (Coming Home)"

There's a newer version of this song by a group called The Travoltas, as well ...

Right or wrong ...
Enjoy!
There you go.
