I'm actually posting a music video...
Have you seen the new MacBook Air commercials? My daughter and I love the theme song - it's called New Soul by Yael Naim. So for my first time ever I'm posting a music video! *Am I hip or what?! ;)
P.S. Congratulations to Craig Ferguson for passing his U.S. citizenship test! I think he's so funny and love his monologues and overall goofiness :)
*Just so's you know - I am actually the furthest thing from hip when it comes to music and am completely dependent on my daughter to keep me in the current decade so posting a music video makes me feel pretty groovy, oops, I mean, cool, no, that's not it, um, awesome?
Thank you for posting this song. I just love it. You are so much more hip than you know!

I feel like a fish out of water. Don't know the commercial, I don't watch tv...hmmm,rarely! Never heard this song...maybe I did, but we loved to watch it. My son says.."how did she get that? Tell me mommy, how??" He wants to know how can she push down the walls like that!!!! He is amazed! He is going to dream about it tonight! Very cute clip.

I absolutely love that song. I just never took the time to find out who it was. Thanks for letting us know.

You are totally hip. Thank goodness for our daughters for keeping us that way. My daughter introduced me to this song on Saturday. I love the song and the video, which I just watched for the first time. Thanks for posting it!

I really do like the songs Mac chooses for it's commercials. My youngest loves Feist's 1234, which they used for Christmas. Very catchy too! Thanks for a new song to love.

Thats so funny that you posted that video. I rarely pay attention to commercials, but every time that one came on, it would always grab my attention because of that song. I had made a mental note to find out more about that song - so thank you for doing the legwork!

this "not so hip", old soul thanks you (and daughter, of course)
...loved that song and it is the first music video I actually like, her art and orchestration goes with the song, something I can relate to...who knew I could be hip, too. "New souls" need old souls, too.

I enjoyed that ad and the song, it is very catchy!
What abot the MacBook Air ads parodies, did you see them? There are some of them at http://macbookairad.com. Some of them are very funny, people are putting their old black notebooks to envelopes :D

LOL! Talk about coincidence! I JUST bought this song and a few others then went to catch up on blogs and read this! It's a great little song. :)

My husband and I saw the commercial last week and immediately had to get this song on iTunes! Very cool video...thanks!

I'm with you on this one. In fact, I'll admit that I don't really even understand what facebook and many of these other services are/do. My kids aren't old enough yet to help me with it...! Heaven help them when they realize how behind the times I really am...!
