Does anyone know the name of the song that is played in DBS's Life is Beautiful commercial?
The lyric goes something like this:

in the morning i feel the breeze the sun watches over me, water comes crashing in or is it just me but it feels aliveopen your eyes and see
life is beautiful...

Thanks.

Hi Chlorin,

Thanks for the reply, but I'm refering to the other DBS commercial where there seems to be a marriage of some kind, wasn't paying much attention to the details of the commercial but have been looking high and low for the song...

Me too, searching thru the websites high and low for this song. What Chlorin has mentioned was the earlier commercial by DBS Cashline with the 'Jazzy' mood.

The recent commercial by DBS bank seemed to be done in Hongkong with the couple getting married. Anyone who have seen this commercial and knew the title of the song... pls help us...

Hi Trihok,

I don't think the song is available commercially. The song may have been specifically composed for the advertisement and I don't recognise the voice of the singer. Don't take my word for it as my guess could be wrong.

How about try calling or e-mailing the customer service of DBS and see if they can tell you the availability of the song?

Hi

you may wish to contact Public Affairs and Advertising dept at DBS. You shd get their contact in the tel directory. Ask for 'life is beautiful' jingle.

likely its contract advertising firm is doing it for them...

I called DBS before and was told it's a special song written just for the commercial. Was told DBS is recording the song into a CD and will be availble soon. But not sure how much it will cost. If you are interested, can leave down your name and contact with them. i've left mine;)

Yeah Zelda, the WG is very glam. Is it from Blush Blush? Thought I once saw a Blush Blush gown like that....

i love the gown too especially the crystal at the bodice. My guess is it's from Bridal Veil. Michelle Hui Min is very good with crystal.

My 2 cents worth - i think the gown is from Kai coz I've seen a very similar one in either a previous issue of Female Brides or Her World Brides - shld be late last yr's issue. On one of the copies, it is featured on the front cover page.

Check it out if u have last yr's bridal mags...

Hi all

Sorry for late reply… I was outstation. Nov bride is right its vera wang … but I think that gown is just so so… it could be the lightings that makes it more appealing. Personally I prefer gowns from kai bridal.

That song is not for sale commercially its specially composed by an Australian compose for this ad & it’s not released for sale.

Hi Zelda

I thought the guy with the bicycle scene was shot in Hongkong. Never expect the couple's scene was done in Hyatt S'pore's ballroom. The commercial was tastefully done.

Anyway, thanks for sharing this info.

hi sam,

Vera Wang is a high-end American designer, available only at the Link and I think her gowns are available at $6k and upwards. Why not get a local designer to copy? It's a bustier design with beading detail at the top, right?

Actually, I was told that the prices start at 10k for a simple a-line with no details. But of course, part of the price goes towards the superior material and cut they use. The rest go towards the brand.

Hi all,
the song had appeared in IRC recently.
the lyrics! (compiled by Ironx from Hardwarezone)

In the morning i feel the breeze
The sun watches over me
The sound of water
The crashing sea
Is it all there is
That feels alive
Its all ahead of me
Cause it feel so right
Just open your eyes and see

Life is beautiful
So beautiful
Its beautiful to me
Life is beautiful
So beautiful
Its beautiful to me

Life can take you anywhere
You don't know where it leaves you
But you know you're not alone
Just open your eyes and see

Life is beautiful
So beautiful
Its beautiful to me
Life is beautiful
So beautiful
Its beautiful to me
Life is beautiful
Its beautiful to me

Hi Aimee,

it's "I believe" but if you do a search on the Internet, you may get duplicates as there is a Japanese song having the same title.

It's a beautiful song, isn't it? Have you seen the movie?
