What is the song from the "symmetrical" Target commercial which aired for about the last month, maybe month and a half with a decidedly laid-back but upbeat song, lots of bright colors, "wake up 'cause I wanna go--you can have it all?" Ideas? I have found most others from Whatsthatcalled and other sites, but this one is stumping me. Thanks.

If it's the commercial I'm thinking of, it sounds like a group called The Sea And Cake.Don't know the name of the song.

Sam used to head a band called Sea & Cake. I knew that I had heard his voice before. He also has his own albums. The song apparently was written directly for the commercial.

This may not be the exact answer we are all looking for, but you can screen the Target TV ads online to your heart's content. Look for their Channel Red page at http://target.com/target_group/stores_services/channel_red.jhtml

The song is a speeded up version of "Say Something New" from The Concretes self-titled album.

Not sure this posted the first time, but the song is called "Say Something New" from the Concretes.
