Does anyone know what the name of the song is that is on the VH1 New Music Commercial? It sounds kind of techno and has the verse 'hey you, what's that sound, everybody look what's going down.' Thanks in advance for your help!

The lyrics are strikingly similar to Buffalo Springfield's 'For What It's Worth' - song from the sixties. It may be a remake? Here are the lyrics: http://www.clarkson.edu/~winklebh/vietnam2/buffalo.html

Thanks for the lyrics, but this sounds like a remake... I'd like to know who did the remake :)
Thanks!!!

Try this, a band called Les Rythmes Digitales has a version that has the lyrics exactly as you stated... Is this it?? There are audio samples on the page.

Yes. The music part of it (not the 'Hey, hey you...' sample) is a NYC band called Fischerspooner. The song is 'Emerge' and it's about 3 years old. I was a DJ in NYC for the past 12 years. Hope this helps.- Rustyn

I think it's a mix by Fisherspooner and this song you sent me to. I wish I could find the combined version, but thank you SO much for your help on this!!! You rock!

From what I know, the song is 'I Wish' by Skee-Lo...I could be wrong, but I have downloaded on my computer as that. I actually was just wondering what that song was called, as well. I saw it on the VH1 commercial and it caught my attention, so I came downstairs and just went to google.com. I typed in the lyrics that I knew (in quotation marks) and then searched it. That's always how I do it, so, for future reference, it's a lot easier! I hope that helps! ;D

The main song is Fischerspooner's Emerge (the 'hey you..' is something they mixed in, possibly Les Rythmes)
Hope that helps

> I've heard the 'hey you' vox in Les Rythmes Digitales' 'Hey You (What's That Sound)', but I suppose they're probably sampled from the Skee-Lo track. I'm guessing this was just a mashup created for the commercial. Several UK adverts and radio stations use bootlegs from GHP, DSICO, Left Handed Bastard, Andreas Churchill, etc. So, it's a long-shot, but it's possible a third party pirate could have created this song, and VH1 bought the rights to air it in the commercial. However, as Viacom usually doesn't work that way, I don't think that's the case.

Does anyone know the name of the song that the guys on That 70's Show were playing on the Valentie's episode (Eric pulls down Donna's Pants) when they were getting high? It had no words, it was just music (rock).
