forgot to add the link oops

Hello, I found a link where you can download the singing in the rain remix!!! Apparently its a fraud but it sounds pretty good to me. feel free xxxx

Can someone give me a link so I can download that amazing Volkswagen Golf GTI advert for free ‘I’m singing in the rain…doh,doh,doh….! :o)

My brother is part of the VW in house advertising team. before the “singing in the rain” concept was decided up(at a very late date) They were going to go with a summer concept and this was the track they inteded to use:

http://www.web13030.vs.netbenefit.co.uk/video.html”

It is from a little known artist and the song infact debuted several years ago

“[url=http://www.lucycarr.com]http://www.lucycarr.com[/url]”

was the one who did it.

Add your support for the release of the tune here :-)

does anybody think the audio track

is like lemon jelly

Yep Ive been listening to it over and over, just want a copy of the vid to keep

Somebody already said this, btu anyway, more detail.

The first guy, is Jay walker, the quick scene, then its David Elsewhere, who does the jerky hands move, but then its B-boy Crumbs, who does the lampost hold thing. Then the guy who jumps into the puddle is Jay walker again, then B-boy crumbs does the great finale.

Speaking of the new Ford Mustang commercial. It’s been in the US since October 2004 and is about to start airing in the Great White North. I think it’s the best commercial of all time. Steve McQueen rocks! I found the website of the Canadian actor (David Stuart) who stars in the spot (he’s the live one). He has a copy of the 1 minute commercial on his site as well as awesome spots for Kyocera, MSN, Excite.com, Greyhound and others…check it out at http://www.david-stuart.net

go to limewire do a search for mint royale singing in the rain..tra la la there u go!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D Thanks for the link to that track Socom:D

dancing around in the room right now shame it’s not longer but hey it’s great! :D cheers

A fine ad idea, with cool music…..I am really ready for love (& a Golf GTI)

you can always look for the video on the P2P networks such as emule.

thanks Phoebe been looking everywhere for that tune!!

> Then the guy who jumps into the puddle is Jay walker again, then B-boy crumbs does the great finale.

The turn in the puddle is SO one of Elsewere’s moves!

I’d be pretty pissed off if I was Crumbs or Jay Walker. All the publicity I’ve seen has been about Elsewhere.

The official line on the ad is that they tried to recreate the old film set (walls, streets, rain etc.) and techniques as exactly as possible. I want to know if they put milk in the rainwater like they did back in the original.

this one worked for me! its about 3 minutes long and pretty good quality

Das Movie ist einfach schön gemacht, schade das es nicht noch länger ist. Einen schönen gruß aus Ratingen. (Germany)

I just have a comment about the GTI ad and the post from TIM Feb 1, 07:18 PM…you need to get a life…that production is probably some of the best you will ever see.

If there is one thing that really winds me up, it’s when someone who is unable to achieve what they strive for, feels the need to belittle anothers creative output to compensate.

You can find the highest quality encoding of that video on the author’s website, the direct url is:

It’s slightly better than what’s pasted above.

Hey guys, you can watch the video of

Singing in the rain (FuzzyGroove remix) – Mint Royale

here //www.faithandhope.co.uk/jukebox/SIR.swf

If anyone can supply a download link for the song i would be much obliged :)

hey guys, i downloaded a pretty neat video version on the website of the ad producers: http://www.ne-o.co.uk

enjoy

I think that this a good web site.

The Mint Royale video is available here . It is in it’s way a take on the ad’s theme and very nicely done, though not on par with Mr. Elsewhere, IMO. :)

Waiting in the rain is not the same song. They have now released the full version and it’s on iTunes as Singing in the Rain.

http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=74768857&selectedItemId=74768817

I downloaded the Mint Royale track via Limewire… But it seems that the track was remixed by professional engeeners to be used as the ad’s sountrack. The Equalization, ambience and overall sonic quality (as well the kick and snare drum samples) are much better in the ad version.

the songs iTunes for all who care under the name “waiting in the rain”. search for mint royal. its just 99 cents!

thanks for that it was the bees knees send in more. come on the arsenal. kelly brook is sooooooo buff.

Definitely a blue mask [maybe green] for editing. You can see also, when he’s moving away from the lampost, how the face does kind of lag. You can see it chasing after the head a little. That’s minor anyway, because I didn’t even notice it until after I looked hard [I thought it was all done by a super-cool dude who LOOKED like Gene Kelly].

Here’s the best-quality one I can find

I’d REALLY like an HDTV widescreen capture of this commercial though. The 750MPH site gives a lesser-quality video than what I’ve already seen. If you need hosting, maybe this site will help you: Found it somewhere…

My question is this: has this commercial been shown in the US yet? I don’t watch much TV, so I wouldn’t know. This’ll definitely be one of those videos that I’ll never get rid of! I also think they [Mint Royale] should make a music video based directly on the theme of the commercial, since it would make an excellent music video on its own.

One question.  If the dancers are elswhere, jay or crumbs, how the flying fajitas did they get gene’s face on him?  especially the close up scene jsut after the lampost stunt.

hi, i just found out that the single of “singing in the rain” will be released in june just before the album.

the release comes on hope&faith in conjunction with direction. have fun.

Socom, you are a true legend! Top marks bro :o)

J, you say you video’ed the ad…

Is there anyway you can record it digitally in it’s HIGHEST quality?

I would love to have this ad in its

full splendour.It’s so hard to find (high quality).

I video’d the ad the other night and I must have watched it 50 times, I realy need that music. Where can I get it ?

I thought it was david elsewhere but the backflips made me decide otherwise but that could always be another person just doin the backflips

Yea i was thinking the same thing myself, David Elsewhere is the bomb. he dances like him, but Elsewhere is one scrawny guy and that guy doesnt look scrawny enough, but then again, it looks like thats 3 layers of clothing he has on.

Can anyone confirm this is breakdancer “David Elsewhere” doing the robot dance moves?

That site ain’t coming up fast enough. I want that tune like yesterday :(

I just hope it’s a longer mix than what’s on the 30 second commercial.

Oh my god! that advert kicks ass! how sad is that! but it really does. ive just downloaded it and ive been watching it over and over again for the past 2 hours.

The music was remixed by Mint Royale (http://www.mint-royale.com) but you won’t find it on their site.  Some of the news sites are saying that when VW launches the new GTI website with this ad campaign, a club remix of the song will be available for download.

There’s a moment “he is” wearing a white gloves.. OPS! XD

I couldn’t find a copy of the song, so I ripped it. Contact me on my site if you want a copy and I’ll send it to ya.

For the audio on the VW ad try these peeps, they made it!

No idea, but yes it’s pretty neat. I guess you could always rip it from the Mov file. :?

Anyone know who did the audio remix?? it’s wicked I want it!!!!!!!!

I found a link to the Ford Mustang ad. No way near as nice as I hoped it might have been, and not a patch on the Puma ad.

That VW ad is amazing isnt it!

“footage of Kelly from Singing In The Rain is seamlessly melded with new footage”

It is good but it is far from seamless.

I’ve not seen the Mustang ad, but Ford used Steve McQueen in the original Puma ads here in the UK. I’ll have to see if I can dig out a link…

I read somewhere that there was actually 3 different dancers in that clip

There are some nice video clips on the ‘Milk and Cookies’ site showing David Elsewhere in action, pretty amazing stuff.

Found a remix here

For those of you trying to get hold of a rip of the track try this guy.

I really, really, really want that remix, i cant find it anywhere on the internet and i cant record it from the advert clear enough. Does anyone where i can get it?

yea it’s a Mint Royale remix of the orig Singing in the Rain.

I got a smile on my face!

Hello , does anyone know where to get the song ?? I like the Ad but the music is fantastic !!!

Anyone got a copy of that song they can send me?  Thanks.

Any word yet on the music, or any idea how long till the new Golf site goes live?

its true everytime you see the song, IT GETS BETTER!! hehe :P

hey just wanna say Mint Royale did the song but i cant find it!! :P plz send it me… thanjks :)

i also want the music from the ad, i watch the ad so many times and every time i like it better!

Hey, i thought that they used keyframe animating to get some of the more amazing moves on the ad, like they animated gollum on Lord of the rings. 5they recorded the actor (andy skerkis) perfoming as gollum and to make him more nimble they animated some parts of him. watch the 4 disk DVDs. i want that music!!!!!

Have u seen the film ‘U got served’?

Elsewhere plays a nice part near the end. Looks like a spider!

hello mummy im on da internet

Thanks for letting us all know Mike! :)

Well I had money riding on it being Elsewhere doing at least part of the dancing in there – and now im 20 bucks richer :D

I actually emailed the directors of the ad and apparently the first person is J Walker, then the second is Elsewhere (can’t deny the style) and the last one is Crumbs.  :) cheers.

While a neat ad – it’s too much like some older ads – most recently the one for the new Mustang with Steve McQueen back from the dead. 

I personally liked the exploding Polo ad much better.
