740.0. "Latest FIAT advert" by SYSTEM::GOODWIN (The sensitive rock) Thu Sep 13 1990 17:06

    Anyone know the music behind the Fiat Tampara (not sure of spelling!)
    advert. The latest Fiat's been on telly a lot lately, and I find the
    background music striking. Anyone know what it's called, who it's by?

740.3An update...at lastEAYV01::BARRONThu Dec 20 1990 17:1810
    At long last ..........................I have a tape of the music,
    got it last week.  It still has not been released to the general
    public.  I have one spare copy, if you want I can send it to you,
    just let me know your mail stop.
    
    I forget the name, but George Michael has a hand in it somewhere  
    producer or something.
    
    Anyway, just let me know.........Frances in Ayr

740.6And the name is...GALVIA::STEPHENSGreen Eggs and HamTue Jan 08 1991 11:552
Any idea what the song/singer is, so that we'll know when and if it is released 
commercially?
740.7Its called.....EAYV01::BARRONThu Jan 17 1991 12:266
    Yes, its called "Only You" and its by Praise.  The outside of the
    tape box that I have gives no more details than that, neither does
    the inside for that matter! It will be released sometime this year.
    
    Regards

740.8don't know if it's true....CUCKOO::SPENCERtiggers hate mondaysThu Jan 31 1991 16:414
I'm sure I've heard on the radio somewhere that George Michael had something to 
do with it (writer/producer?) but I can't remember where.

    Is that the gorgeous haunting music that's had the disgusting bass and
    percussion put to it?  Or was it like that anyway?

    I saw it on TOTP and surely its had the "treatment".  Don't remember
    the disgusting bass and percussion from the advert.
