Help with this tune please

Hi all i hope someone can help me identify this tune i heard it on the Trigger Happy 3 DVD where the guy goes into the restaurant and pulls out a gun and shoots another guy (sorry if you don`t have this)
This is driving me crazy it starts off with a japanese girl singing and fades to a guy who starts to tell a story she comes back in every often to chorus
if this makes sense to anyone please put me out of my misery

thanks in advance

Dial 2580 from your mobile (i know it works on o2, not sure about the others) and hold your phone to the speaker until they hang up, then wait!


Doesn`t always work and costs about 50p

No probs!

Does seem to be dodgy but its a damn good service that i think should get more publicity!

I work for The Link :-)

Some sort of computer i think, recognises tones/etc to get the tune, i tried it with some random hip-hop song i`d never heard of before and it got it after listening to only 15secs of it, cracking!

I would recommend a site called www.commercialbreaksandbeats.co.uk

It lists thousands of commercially available songs used in ads on British TV and AFAIK intros for dramas etc.

I`m so impressed with this, even though I still haven`t tried it. Check out the website of this 2580 company:

http://www.shazam.com/shazam/do/home

They claim it works on 02,orange, vodafone,one2one.

You can register (for free) on the site and any songs you have `tagged` will be remembered so you can buy them later if you like.

Nice.
