11/14/2005 Entry: "Jose's Sony commercial"

Lucky TV viewers in the UK, Europe and Australia have a chance to see the new Sony TV commercial with 250,000 bouncy balls bouncing down a San Francisco incline, while the soundtrack to this magical imagery is none other than Jose Gonzalez's cover of The Knife's "Heartbeats", which appears on Jose's debut album "Veneer" and The Knife's album "Deep Cuts". Here in the States we await Sony's decision to run the ad in the U.S., hoping to see a quarter-million bouncy balls on their magical journey across 750,000 TV sets, maybe even during The Superbowl. That would be nice! You can check out the commercial at this special site, and hear Jose's version of "Heartbeats" and The Knife's original version here.
