Subject: "You Take My Breath Away" in Gain Commercial

Written By: sray2k on 01/14/09 at 2:26 pm

I am hoping someone will know who sings the  cover of "You Take My Breath Away" by Berlin in the recent Gain Laundry Detergent commercial.  I know it is not Jessica Simpson's version this is different...Can't explain it. I just saw it last night.
I searched the web and had no luck on the singer/nor finding the commercial on the net.  This is really starting to annoy me !!!

Thanks...

It's probably just an (unknown) studio singer who performs it.
If they can't get permission from the artist of the original song they will just record another version of it.
Sammy Hagar said that about Right Now when it was used for the Crystal Pepsi ads in the 90s. Van Halen was told if they didn't  give their permission to use it, Pepsi would just make a knock off version of it. Van Halen decided they might as well get paid for it.
