it's called "one love in your hands"
Jack Johnson & Ben Harper - With My Own Two Hands - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqMWS-wbuss
This Jack Johnson song has the SIMPLICITY and SOPHISTICATION they want. They love that it's "HIP and SWEET at the same time." Again, quoting the Agency, "This is absolutely essential. No UKES!" The song CAN'T be childlike or silly. Performances need to be SINCERE, SOULFUL and AUTHENTIC, but NOT over-the-top. MALE and/or FEMALE vocals are BOTH okay. I-M-P-O-R-T-A-N-T: They're looking for ANY of the following lyrical themes: MAGIC IN YOUR/MY HANDS; IN YOUR/MY HANDS; THE WORLD IN YOUR HANDS; WHAT I CAN DO WITH MY HANDS; or IDEAS IN YOUR HANDS. As with most ads, the lyrics need to underscore the PRODUCT and the PEOPLE who are enjoying it -- NOT two people in love. So, if it's a love song, make sure the object of your affection could easily be an inanimate object (in this case, one you hold in your hand, NOT a person). As always, please avoid explicit lyrics and specific references to NAMES, PLACES and BRANDS. As always, DO NOT rip-off the referenced artist or song in any way, shape or form! Use them ONLY as a guide for tempo, texture, and emotional vibe/tone. You MUST own or control 100% of the Master and Composition rights to submit for this listing!!!!!! NO SAMPLES of other songs or artists can be incorporated into your track. Broadcast Quality is needed (excellent home recordings are fine.) If your song is ultimately chosen, it will be used in an online ad with an ESTIMATED fee of $5,000-$10,000. Potentially, the ad could also wind up on TV, in which case you would receive an additional payout to be determined later. This is DIRECT-to-the-AGENCY, so you'll KEEP 100% of the fee. If you ARE chosen, the Ad Agency will contact you DIRECTLY. Please submit ONE to THREE songs online. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS by a person Hand-Picked by the agency rep. NO FULL CRITIQUES FROM TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 9:30AM (PDT) on Tuesday, May 1, 2012. TAXI #Y120501SS
