So, there's a new m&m's commercial, and it has a really, really cool song in it. It almost sounds like John Mayer. I'm not a big John Mayer fan, but this song is soooo quiet and peaceful sounding, I think I might really enjoy whoever this artist is.

Does anyone know what song or artist is playing on the newest m&m commercial?

By the way, there is an archive of m&m commercials on their website, where you can watch/listen to them, but this newest one apparently isn't up there ther. So that's a no-go.

I haven't seen the commercial, but I believe this is what you're lookingfor:

Iron and Wine - Such Great Heights

P.S. It's a Postal Service song first. It's been "covered" by everybody and their mama.

P.P.S. http://adtunes.com/ is your friend.

P.P.P.S. It's on the Garden State soundtrack.

Just curious -- if you've not seen the commercial, how on earth would you have any idea what I'm talking about? :D Adtunes, I guess?

You mean to say you haven't heard the Postal Service's version before?

I'm trying to clarify which one you're referring to.

The Postal Service is on your radio or the (*referrs back to upper post*) Iron & Wine?

Postal Service.

Yeah, that's over two years old.
Released: February 18, 2003 according to Amazon. I'm quite sure it's their song, not that I can find credits of who wrote what on either band's page.

edit:
"I think 'such great heights' is the first time I've ever written..." from The Postal Service's website. So I'd assume it's theirs.
