Eurostar ad tune

[beweypm]

I asked a question recently about the tune played on the latest Eurostar ad.

Thank you to those who replied but since then I have ad this response fromthe Eurostar PR team:

The song we use in our current television advert was originally sung by Jakko M Jaksyk. We re-recorded the track for the advert.

Excellent! Now Ray Davies knows who to sue for royalties :-)

He won't need to sue, he'll get them, it's all above board ;). And Jakko M Jakszyk is the guy who has re-recorded the music for the ad sung by Suzanne Barbieri. It was originally sung by a French artiste called Virginie in 1965. Shame Eurostar didn't actually know this!
