Subject: Help please!

Written By: Brianne on 05/12/08 at 8:36 pm

Ok, I'm not sure when the song actually came out, but does anyone know that song that sounds like humming and it's set to banjo music ? no not the crash test dummies!  I usually hear it played when they need a "feel good" type a song like they might show a person swinging on a tire swing in or taking a walk in the woods, I have heard used in a ton of commercials and movies and it's driving me nuts that I don't know what it is, please help!!

Just a shot in the dark...

"Roll To Me" by Del Amitri?  Not exactly a banjo, but it's uptempo, string-heavy, and popularly marketed.

I was thinking "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole.  It's been used in a few commercials, as well as a few TV shows and movies (ER, Finding Forrester, 50 First Dates).  It doesn't have a hum but a humming "wooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" at the beginning.
