About a year ago a bank had a commercial on TV (not a local LV one, but one of the mega-banks). In this commercial there was a pillow fight free-for-all on a city street with some really dandy music. The song was in French, sung by a male singer, and featured the words "boom-boom" every two bars. I really want to find out the name, and singer, of this piece. It sounded like French Cafe music of the 30's and 40's. Anyone have any ideas? TIA.

OK! That was impressive TMB. An answer seemed like a long-shot, when I read the question.

But, should I be more amazed that Chuck thought a vodka ad was for a bank?Thomas Maurice Booth wrote:The commercial is for Absolut Vodka.
