Hey,

My mum is asking me about the song in the background of this advert.

I have told her that it is probably a commissioned piece by McDonald's themselves and even my fiance has said that it's more than likely legally distinct song that's not "real" and just made for the advert. However my mum is determined she used to dance to it in the 90's.

I have sent her the theme to mortal combat (which sounds similar to me but she is very unlikely to have been dancing to it) and I sent her No limits by 2 unlimited but it's not it either would anyone be able to help us?
 
It's likely made just for the advert and is made to sound like typical 90s EDM.... The "Mortal Kombat" theme ("Techno Syndrome" by The Immortals) is a good choice you made -- it sounds very similar.

She definitely would have danced to it in the 90s it is by an act called Quadrophonia I think the song was called Quadrophonia.

"Quadrophonia" by Quadrophonia

Does that sound like the same song? I'm not hearing it. (There is a lot of other sound effects going on in that McDonald's ad to mask the song.)

I have told her that it is probably a commissioned piece by McDonald’s themselves and even my fiance has said that it’s more than likely legally distinct song that’s not “real” and just made for the advert.

Actually, you’re mistaken on this and your mum is correct. As a musical savant and after much searching, I can tell you with 100% certainty that the track used for this advert is most likely the instrumental ‘Rave’ version of ‘Twilight Zone’ by 2Unlimited, which was released in January 1992 as part of the group’s debut studio album Get Ready!

I am so grateful, my mum absolutely loves adding stuff to her never ending list of "liked songs" in Spotify and this has been annoying her still for weeks but I forgot to check back here! I can't believe how close I was with "no limits by 2unlimited" haha seems like a lot of 90's music has similar themes. I didn't mind being wrong when I told her it was probably just a commissioned song. I'm not all that into old music or even branching out my musical tastes I have 2-3 bands I like and it stays that way haha. I can tell her the credit goes to Naughty Auntie haha thank you so much for helping and searching <3 xo
