Hi guys,
I am desperately looking for the song that features in the new SKY advert for Cricket. Featuring the English cricket team, in close up slow motion, with a scene where the bat handle cracks.............
It has featured both on and is running in cinemas now!
I need to find out what the track in the background is? Its a very eastern sound with heavy percurssions and a flute of sorts
Please help!
Thanks
NEW SKY ADVERT: ENGLISH CRICKET TEAM SLOWMO VERSION!

Hi, thanks for the reply but there are two versions of the advert out........the one in the cinema has no orchestration to it....itz very modern....eastern sounds, with thumps, beats and flutes...percussions also where one of the batsmen breaks his bat grip handle facing a fast ball...........
Very modern sound.....not classical.........
Oh, well, thanks for trying........appreciate it!

I contacted sky sports editor whos yet to reply to me...
‘Dreadlock Holiday’ will be the soundtrack to Sky’s international and domestic cricket coverage for 2006 and will be heard for the first time this Sunday 23rd April, during Sky’s opening C&G Trophy match.
The song, which features the legendary lyric 'I don't like cricket, I love it, was written by Graham Gouldman and Eric Stewart and was released by their band 10cc in 1978, reaching number one in the UK chart.
Sky Sports has had the music re-recorded by and the lyrics amended to ‘We don’t like cricket, we love it’.
Six different versions of the music will be heard throughout the summer including a classical version for Test match coverage and a break beat version for domestic one-day competitions.

GOT IT! Heard it agian for the 100th time last night.
It's a brief instrumental sequence from:
'Anywhere on this Road' by Lhasa De Sela from 'The Living Road' album which is available on ITUNES.
A latin artist. Lhasa's roots extend through Mexico, Canada and the States, and the songs on "The Living Road" reflect this. With lyrics in French, Spanish and English, as well as a very natural-sounding combination of all kinds of musical traditions, it crosses borders in various ways. There's a weariness in all the wandering though, and an undercurrent of cultural dislocation. It's as if the record is an attempt to find harmony in the bewildering chaos and pace of a modern, urban world
