Title: New Gameboy Commercial
Post by: DigitalAngel on August 18, 2004, 03:04:52 PM
Anyone know what that song is that plays during the new gameboy commercial, where it shows a boy standing on a corner playing gameboy and the camera is spiralling around him as game character icons pop up all over?  That song is just so groovy!

Dear Mario, please come to the castle.  I baked a cake for you!  Yours truly, Princess Toadstool -- Peach

Haven't people asked this question about five times now? Anyway, I'm sure the answer is in the latest mailbag or two.

“I’m a stupid fatty and I love to play with my Easy Bake oven.”

The song is "Situation" by Yaz. Now don't ask again.

That commercial isn't very new either, I've seen it since Mid-July.

I think I know what she means. There's another version with a song I didn't recognize. Only saw it once.

>.<  Sorry, busy life you know.  Can't check the forums ALL the time.  I figured if anyone would know the answer, this would be the best place to ask.

Oh and I probably should have said "newEST" instead of "new."  At least it's the newest one I've seen.  Forgive me for not being so darn precise.  Sheesh...

Sorry but "Situation" by Yaz is wrong.  Perhaps the commercial has a different track than the one I have seen again and again in the past week.  But the one I was looking for and found is "Strict Machine" by Goldfrapp if anyone is curious.

Oh, cool. I couldn't make out what they were singing, so I was stumped.

Neither could I, Deezer.  After I found the song, I looked up the lyrics...

"I get high on a buzz
Then a rush when I'm plugged in you
I connect
When I'm flush
You get love when told what to do

Wonderful electric
Wonderful electric
Wonderful electric
Cover me in you

I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love with a strict machine"

Makes perfect sense in relation to Gameboy--I know how much I love mine.  : )
