Okay, so this isn't exactly music, but this is a good excuse to show off "Moon River".

This ad plays a lot here in the UK. The chocolate being advertised is known as Galaxy here in the UK, but elsewhere it is known as Dove. (No, not the shampoo.) The ad features what appears to be Audrey Hepburn, but I did a bit of digging and found out that it's not even a real person. What you see is a computer-generated equivalent of her, made with a real human as reference, and her "entire catalog" as references for the model. As a CGI artist myself, it's incredible to watch and imagine. Even I can't imagine how they did such a thing.

Either way, it's an amazing ad and the music is fantastic. Beat that, America.
 

I'm not a huge J-pop fan, generally, but this song (and especially the video) hits me pretty hard. What a lovely artist she is.

Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why

Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I WAAAAANT IT THAAAAT WAAAAAY
