Lana Del Rey's cover of 'Once Upon a Dream,' which is Sleeping Beauty's theme, for Disney's 'Maleficent' is vintage LDR.

Microsoft has a brand new Surface 2 tablet commercial, complete with brand-new song. While the commercial itself is only a shortened version of a previous ad, the tune that accompanies it is a wholly new one. But what is it?

There are a lot of things wrong with the world in 2014, yet there are many things that are right. One of the things that's most definitely right with it? The soulful, passionate and unforgettable front porch performance of a blues-infused, folky rock song that powers the 'Today Is Pretty Great' Honda Civic Coupe commercial. Who is the band?

Pitbull and Jennifer Lopez are enjoying a very fruitful, collaborative partnership. In addition to his features on her successful singles 'On the Floor' and ' Dance Again,' they are teaming up with Brazilian artist Claudia Leitte for the 2014 FIFA World Cup anthem!

Was the first halftime in a football game the product of pretty girl, distracted players and the desire to consume some Pepsi? That seems to be the case in the cola brand's 2014 'There Since the First #Halftime' 2014 Super Bowl commercial. It's revisionist history but it's cute. What's the song featured in the vintage-themed spot?

Like her chart-topping sister Lorde, little sis India Yelich-O'Connor seems to want to break into the music business. The 15-year-old recently uploaded a cover of A Great Big World and Christina Aguilera's 'Say Something' to SoundCloud.

What's worse than a flat tire? Oh, just having to change a flat tire in the pouring rain. That sucks. In Subaru's 2014 flat tire commercial, a young girl is forced to swap out a bum tire while getting drenched. What's the song, featuring a soft, lilting female voice, that accompanies her unenviable predicament?

'Mr. Peabody & Sherman,' a 3D, animated comedy, will hit the multiplex on March 7.

Coke bottles are so much more than vessels for holding soda pop. In this (extended version of the) new Coca-Cola commercial, the semi-filled cola bottles are used as musical instruments. What's the song that the artists are playing with Coke bottles as their tools?

If you are afraid of heights, you probably won't dig this commercial... at first. But if you crave the ultimate urban experience, then you'll love the new, extremely futuristic Nissan Qashqai spot. What's the song that's used while the SUV-loving protagonist is on the move and on the go?

On tonight's episode of 'The Bachelor' (Jan. 13), an 'X Factor' alum performed a soulful ballad of his new single for a romantic one-on-one date between bachelor Juan Pablo Galavis and hopeful Clare Crawley. So what song was sung on their date?

Lea's gettin' loud. Make that 'Louder.' And you know what? We like it.

This was pretty unbelievable. Did you even know Robert Downey Jr. could sing? Well, he can and did recently. Watch this video of him doing the Police song, "Driven to Tears," at a Sting concert!

Shakira and Rihanna collaborating is a match made in hip-shaking heaven, and now we have a preview of their duet, 'Can't Remember to Forget You!'

On this date January 10th back in 1949, the vinyl record was introduced by RCA. Records like you may have seen in your parents’ basements or attics. As I wrote yesterday I only have one LP (33.3 RPM record in my possession). That wasn’t the case way back in my younger days.

Jasmine Sanders is a beautiful young woman with a beautiful, powerhouse voice! She's also very well spoken and will be a great representative of Maine when she sings in front of a packed house next month in New York's Carnegie Hall....
