A lovely melody. Unfortunately I don't know it, but would also be interested to find out now. 

...not the answer to your question, specifically, but this is running on apple tv commercials in the states... read the "features" page: basically hold your iphone up to a speaker -and viola! the song!

pretty cool

well, tried to help you out "long-hand..."

artist: Yann Tiersen

99% sure... song: Comptine d'Un Autre Été: L'après Midi

he is on itunes...

Thank you for your effort Jeff, but I don't think this is the same one. Although Amelie soundtrack and Yann Tiersen are great! I must get some of his CDs in the future.

But I think the search for my song still continues... 

well then my 1% of "not sure" sounds like a winner, er, ah, ...loser rather!

wow, they sound so similar!

if i get a iphone for xmas -shazam will be my first dload!

I found another song I like. It is used in Citroën's video about their history - you can see it on www.citroen.com. Just click The history of Citroën button.

Or you can just click on the link here to hear the song:

Is it just me, or did the "unknown song" thread disappear?

Anyway, I found a new one I can't find anywhere. At first it seemed like it was from the french movie Amelie, but I don't think it is on the soundtrack. Here is a sample > click.

Shazam on my iPhone tells me it is Alala Ilali (Pot Pourri Medley) by Maurice El Medioni, from the album Pianoriental.

Hope it is right! 😮
