Interstella 5555 - 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem
While Cart was in Singapore, we happened to catch a Nokia 5300 commercial while watching tv.
me: I really like this commercial
cart: Thats because you like Nokia phones :P
me: I do, but I also do like this song alot. Its got a great beat and feel to it. I wonder what song it is?
After a while, I forgotten about the advertisment.
Only recently while doing a search for a certain Daft Punk clip on youtube, and clicking on random links when I stumbled upon the song ‘Digital Love’.
Hey, isnt this the song that they used for the nokia commercial?
I remarked to Cartcart, “Look! Its the same characters as ‘One more time’. I’m pretty sure that they made it into a full length anime”
“They did. Do a search for Interstella 5555″
Watching the movie, I’m quite impressed at how the visual and the song blend so seamlessly. It was a very enjoyable watch. It even has a pretty good storyline!
It isnt easy to make a clip to revolve around a song, but the animators has done a really spectacular job. Now I want and need to have a Daft Punk Discovery CD.
Go on and watch the movie and let me know what you think. My personal favourite is ‘Something about us’ :)
p.s If you like music with a storyline, I’d recommend Dream theater’s Scenes from a memory. Go on an listen to it, uninterrupted and picture the story in your mind. The ending is a great twist.

Hello! Random-but I have been trying to figure out what song it is in that commercial because it gets stuck in my head every time I see it! I was incredibly unsuccessful in figuring it out until I stumbled upon your site through some googling! So, thank you!

Thanks for dropping by my blog. Yes, Its a great song :) Surprisingly, it wasnt easy to find the discovery cd by the Daftpunks in Singapore, it took about 2 weeks for the good people of gramaphone to find a stock actually.
But I think its worth waiting for :)
