The Beep Beep Song
January 1, 2008To me, TV commercials are a form of art. Good, well-thought out television commercials are a joy to watch. Sony, with their paint, bouncing balls, and claymation commercials for their flat-screen TVs, is at the top of the game when it comes to this art form, if you ask me.
There is one other brand that always knows how to tickle my fancy. Audi. Their new campaign for their R8 is just… Stunningly good. The combination of the music with the almost soothing imagery… I love it. It’s not an easy commercial to grasp though, you do need to know a thing or two about the R8 before you ‘get it’ (hint: the supercar is built by hand).
The music is The Beep Beep Song by Simone White - I love the song. It’s so pure, so sterile, and her voice… Dear lord, what a talent. If Fiona Apple and Sufjan Stevens had a baby daughter (of course, this is never going to happen, since Fiona will be marrying me, naturally), she wouldn’t be too far off from Simone White. Check her MySpace page for some more songs off her latest album. Anyway, here is the video for The Beep Beep Song.
Dear lord. It’s barely 2008! Which reminds me, happy new year everyone.

Yup, I don’t like that kind of music at all… It strikes me like weird.
