O2 Advert.........Anyone know the music on it?

elephant (Competent) posted this on Friday, 16th May 2003, 19:13

Hi there folks, Does anyone know the song and artist on the O2 phone ad? It`s the one with a woman going along some Nevada highway in an open top car and then dancing amongst some neon signs.
The tune starts off slow like an Aqualung track and then gets a bit technoey.
Cheers for your help from Ele.

all I know is that those symbols are a complete cash-in of the Playstation ones. Which also happen to be the symbols I`ve got tattooed on my spine..

(I`m getting them covered over next month)

The symbols are for the logo`s of the 4 main UK mobile companies -
Red V = Vodafone, Orange Square, Pink T for T-Mobile etc...

I think someone mentioned it being by DJ Shadow but not sure of the name of the track.

It is indeed DJ Shadow and the track is called "Blood on the motorway" I think. Can not remember the album mane but it has a white cover.

All the best,

The 42%er.

And it is a superb album too. I also recommend, if you like that kind of stuff, just about any of his other albums. The Brain Freeze and Product Replacement albums are superb, and you should also check out "The Horror" or "Deadringer" by RJD2.

You can listen to samples of some of the tracks at

I`m sure I`ve heard track 11, You Can`t Go Home Again, somewhere, but cant remember where, I think it might be used in a footy programme.
