Washington Mutual

[spartacus4x]

There is a commercial for a bank / investment / financial advisor company circulating tv that has a classical sounding music track. The name of the company is escaping me, but their logo is yellow and blue and I think resembles a house. The commercial and music ends perfectly on an upbeat piano solo. Anyway, I was wondering if someone new what that song is, or at least what the name of the company is. Sorry for being so vague.

was there actual lyrics or was it just music?

No lyrics, just music.

I'm racking my brain trying to remember what the commercial is about. :angry:

 

[ALDR123456789N]

this is for a US bank commercial?

 

[spartacus4x]

Yeah, 99.9% sure.

but you remember how it goes, right? if so, do you think it was made solely for the ad itself or is the music famous?

WASHINGTON MUTUAL! BOOYAH! TAKE THAT, BRAIN!

Well at least I got the blue and yellow logo part right! Maybe if you turn it upside down it looks like a house.....uh, maybe not.

Anyway, the commercial is the one with an older balding gentleman standing in line and he looks to his right, does a doubletake, and sees a rather portly man opening a door for a woman. He goes through the door, is served a glass of champagne, and says something to the efect of "Wow, imagine a regular guy like me getting treatment like this from a bank." As to which the waiter says, "You're a regular guy?" The man is then escorted out.

Now to just find the song! To answer your question, I sounds like a famous piece. Obviously I could be very wrong, but it sounds like a "high end" piece, something that wouldn't be made for just a 30 second tv clip.
