Love this song!
Me too! Anyone know who it is?
Written by Dom James, Sung by Emma Smith. Written only for this commercial and further lyrics not written as of yet. I googled ‘what is the song in the Range Rover Evoque Dog commercial?’, and that is what it says. Everyone loves it! Mostly dog lovers, I’ll bet!
Her name is SungyoungLee and she owns TVadvertsongs. Her blog is tvadvertsongs.com. She has another site that explains she uses a girl to sing. Her company is signed to Spark44 out of London. She intends to finish the song. Scroll down and you will see more info. A lot of people love the song. If you listen carefully, you can hear some further notes.
The public wants to have this beautiful song available commercially
This is one of the best ads ever…the song is gorgeous and genuine…and it appeals to all the animal lovers who want the best for their beloved pets…the shift between the dog looking out the window expectantly and his dreams/anticipation of times out with his owners in the car is just brilliant.
I would be very interested to learn the title of the song used in this commercial and the name of the artist. It’s a wonderful song! Any information would be welcome. Thanks.
A Place In My Heart by Dom James featuring Emma Smith…I wish this was available…

This is a beautiful song for a beautiful suv who sings the song
Everyone loves this song and artist. Please release it to the public. Let’s start a campaign…
I have a Jack Russell Terrier who looks just like that precious cutie pie in the commercial . That very short part of that song took my breath away. Please, please finish the song. I have it in my head and loveing it. I want that beautuful song. AWESOME
All I know is (and I search high and low for this song ) I had to sit for an hour and a half watching tv ads then this beautiful song hit my soul and I was hook and not many songs do that. I Shazam the song and it came up with Dom James and Emma Smith/ a place in my heart! That’s the best I can do.

This song and the artist who sings it is wonderful! I would love to find out the title and artist. Beautiful music like this should be shared with the world!
Please let me know.
This tune’s causing a stir at the moment on the latest Range Rover ad. I collaborated with lyrical god Tommy Antonio on the song which we wrote especially for the spot. Emma Smith sounds incredible on it (as usual!). Hopefully the full length ver will appear soonish. It was great to collaborate again with Emma after all of our stuff in a similar vein for DeWolfe. Tracks like this one Sunrise With You. Enjoy!! Find Your Heaven with Dom James ft ….you can find this info on http://www.domjamesmusice.com
Info was Copy past from the site
I love this tune at first I thought it was Barbara Lewis this is a must have, Love it.
How can something so good (the song) not be available? What a performance!
I am in sync with all of the comments. The song is so beautiful. The puppy’s eyes – they say it all. It warms the soul.
I am delighted to discover that so many others appreciate this beauty of this ad song. I hope it will be available for public consumption soon.
I love this song. We need it released.
Thanks for the info. LOVE the song. Please finish and release. Also the url you pasted has an e at the end which should be there (musice)
LOVE IT!!! IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE SHARED…AGREED. IT MAKES ME STOP IN MY TRACKS TO LISTEN TO IT.
I love this song, and I found, like the song say, I found that it’s done by Dom James Feat. Emma Smith!! This is the best song, at least the first three lines…
I shazamed it and it says a place im my heart by Dom. James and Emma Smith
Love this song. Need it on my playlist.
This is a BEAUTIFUL song and needs to be released to the public. Whoever is signing has a lovely voice.
I also thought it might have been a Barbara Lewis song. Be great to know who sings it and if the lady has an album or anything I could purchase. It’s beautiful.
I’m glad to see I wasn’t alone in falling in love with this song. It reminded me of an old song from the Fifties – With Every Beat of My Heart – by Gladys Knight. Please release it and it will be a hit. I love everything about the commercial – the dog especially.
I also thought it was an early Gladys Knight recording and I also thought it was done around the same time as With Every Beat of my Heart.
I’m crazy for this song. Please, we all love it and need it.
I also thought it might have been Barbara Lewis. So beautiful! Love to find if this and other songs by this singer are available for purchase.
My husband thought it was Sarah Vaughan because of the phrasing.
So did I. Wonderful song and a beautiful ad. I, also have been searching for this song.
Definitely a must have song, please record and release it!
Love this on every level!
I would like to know the name of the artist who is singing the song and the name of the song
Love this song , the few seconds of this calms my spirit. Love it.
There’s a place in my heart – Wim Schurer. Found this on YouTube. Love it. The tune is a little different.
Like so many people, I absolutely love the song. Even though it has a modern feel, it is an homage to the soul songstresses of the 1960’s and it is very reminiscent of the styling of Etta James. Some Ads just captivate you with the song and this one, does that nicely. However, the great mystery is that we don’t know, who the singer is. But she does sound a lot like Beyonce.
That’s the wedding song of the year… trust me!
AGREED!
Emma smith
I MUST have this song. It is beautiful. Whose is this heavenly voice?
This song is so pure. It is what music should be. More please!
This is the most beautiful song I have heard in a long while. Please where can I find it🙏
I can’t believe a song so wonderful is not available. The artist/songwriter/composer are being cheated.
Redo and release.
Please!!
Keep hopeful! A few years back Living Spaces used an obscure song (yes, it was possible to track it down) but eventually it was available on iTunes. About that dog: please change the commercial to show the owner going in the house, getting him and taking him for a ride. Let gim have his heaven, please!
Lol, I meant to type “Him” 😏
Sounds like an old Etta James era song – love it, give the writer/artist a shot and release it!!!!
Love the song really like the commercial I want to know the artist and where can I download this song at can anyone help?
Not fair to tease the public with this beautiful song that lasts for 30 seconds . Pleeeeese 🙁 publish the whole song I need to find my heaven .
This song spoke to my soul! I immediately began looking for the song, and whoever gave such an awesome, soulful rendition of it. Imagine my disappointment in finding out it has not been published. Please, get her back into the studio and make it happen .
I think it was based on a song called “Every Beat of My Heart”Gladys Knight and the Pips called Every beat of my heart. Listen and you will see the similarities.
I totally agree with all the comments!! This is not only a beautiful song, but it is so moving I need to hear more!! Please let us all know who has this inspirational voice!!!
The commercial is really good. But I love rhe song ir really speaks to me. Would love to hear the whole song. Would also like to know who the artist is because rhe voice is awesome.
The song is by Dom James feat Emma Smith . It’s called, “A place in heaven” not available for download yet
Love the commercial, but mostly because it reminded me of Gladys Knight and the Pips 1961 song, With Every Beat of My Heart. Hope somebody is paying royalties…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXoHK1GKRuo
No ma’am. That song is by Dom James feat. Emma Smith
I don’t hear the similarities lol . But if they did sample it, they do need to pay.
Neither can I hear the similarity of the Gladys Knight song. I would prefer a full-length Emma Smith.
Similarities????
It’s the same doggone song!
Info about the song is here. Might help for when it becomes available for download.

If you can’t wait for a long version, try “With Every Beat of my Heart ” by Gladys Knight and the Pips. Very close intro.
After seeing this commercial, it was so powerful that I’ve been searching online to find out the song and artist. It made me pay attention to what the product was so I could search for the song. Sounds so retro…need more!
I’ve searched everywhere trying to find this song. Now that I know it was done exclusively for Range Rover commercial I’ll give it a rest. Maybe the artist will release the song soon, since it has so many listeners who want to hear more.
The song is by Dom James feat Emma Smith. It’s called “A place in heaven” according to Siri . It’s not available for download …yet.
Love this song advice well. I shazmed it and what came up was the title: A Place In My Heart by Dim James Fest Emma Smith! I searched it and nothing comes up but the relation to the Range Rover commercial! Beautiful song!
This diddy stirs my soul in a way little else does… every single time I hear it… every time, without exception. When it comes on, I STOP whatever I’m doing and listen until it fades. Even during conversations, even if I’m in another room. I’ve told others about it… I think the artist is AVERY SUNSHINE.
like another person said I stopped what I was doing in focused on this commercial love the song.can’t afford the Range Rover but I want that song.sometime a song on the commercial will grab me like the Corona beer song the one at the beach.I think it’s called love in the afternoon something like that.Overtone enjoy…
Mike the Corona commercial song is “Saltwater” by Geowulf https://youtu.be/fXO-HnjLLiY
Lovely 1/2 minute tune and voice song.
There’s got to be more of this song somewhere, somebody bring it out n th open please.
Just love those few words and melody, hopefully it’s coming out soon….
It’s not often that a commercial song can touch you, but this one truly did. Every time it comes on I have to watch and listen. That pup is living his best life. Hope the song is released soon.
The song “I Found A Place In My Heat” is a beautiful song. Every time the Range Rover commercial airs, I stop whatever I’m doing and just listen. It hits the cire of my soul. I searched it on Apple Store, but it gives you a song titled the same, by Lucinda Williams; there is no comparison. I read on another website that Range Rover, although the song was performed by Emma Smith of the Puppina Sisters and is an exclusive fir Range Rover; they’re considering releasing the song because of the high demand from people wanting to know who is singing it and to purchase it. I hope Range Rover releases asap.
I love my dog and am very sentimental this is so
Billie Holiday. More please.
I found my heaven sung by Emma Smith. Lyrics by Dom James and colaberated with Tommy Antonio
Very haunting song…. beautiful
http://www.domjamesmusic.com/adland/range-rover-evoque-i-found-a-place-in-my-heart/
This is the song author and the singer
The music in this commercial also spoke to my heart. I hope we can hear a complete song and have it released! Beautiful vocals, beautiful music, beautiful dog… Land Rover not bad either! In the meantime, until this music is completed and released, I found a similar heart-tugging piece of music that is notable: “A Place in My Heart, recorded by “Sounds of Blackness.” I found the lyrics at http://www.metrolyrics.com/a-place-in-my-heart-lyrics-sounds-of-blackness.html. I located a recording on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/1tpfzsj0sW9Cq4NNU2r0vK?si=N4r7GGh3Q-Wg7taj8Bqc1g
Enjoy!
That is not the same song at all – on the Spotify link from Sounds of Blackness, Africa to America, Journey of the Drum. Not same song from RangeRover 2019 Commercial
That is also on Apple Music, which isn’t the song either.
The song is “Place in my heart” by Don James feat Emma Smith.
The first time I heard this I thought it must already be a classic. I soooo want this on my playlist. Please please please can you get it released. It’s so atmospheric and 50ish. Loved it!!!
Please please get this song on release !!!!!!love it
I too fell for this song and really believed it must be a classic re-done so was amazed and so disappointed to learn it was only made for the add and wasn’t available in any format to buy. Come on guys get it out there. So atmospheric and dreamy. Love it!
I’m so disappointed this song not available to download. Please make it possible to buy or download. Its such a lovely song.
You can hear the original song here. The Dom James is just a copy of the Gladys Knight version, apparently right down to the pauses and accents. The original writer was Johnny Otis.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXoHK1GKRuo
Saw the commercial for the first time on 5/6/19 and the song knocked me off my feet. Must hear the full song and please release this seemingly incredible music.
I have been looking all over for this song Please release it!!!’
You should seriously get this track produced
DITTO…I love this song too!
So nice to hear so many hearts were touched by this truly timeless song. I searched for weeks and am sure it will be made to download soon…but what a great reaction!! Music is Life!! JC Sr.
Absolutely looove the song from the commercial … It found a place in MY heart!!
Not available yet per Mr. Dom James, “This tune’s causing a stir at the moment on the latest Range Rover ad. I collaborated with lyrical god Tommy Antonio on the song which we wrote especially for the spot. Emma Smith sounds incredible on it (as usual!). Hopefully the full length ver will appear soonish.”
So, stay tuned folks. And thanks for causing a bit of a stir…..because, like you, I think this is one pretty song.
Very heartwarming.I would love to be able to download this song.Especially wonderful for any dog lover.Maybe a mini lesson in understanding for anyone including children.

The song is gorgeous, please, please, “finish” the writing and release. Beautiful songs like this are hard to come by these days, as were in the “70’s & “80’s. The doggie is adorable too and fits right in…wish I could get a hold of him, also! (The song reminds me of the giddy love I felt as a kid.)
I love the words to this song and I love that voice and I have to hear the rest of this song very touching !
This has to be the Best Song Ever for a Commercial. It must be released to download. The dog is adorable . The Commercial overcomes me wit a feeling of Melancholy that is just Wonderful ! Whomever thought of this Commercial should be given an immediate Promotion. I would go out and buy a Land Rover right now if I could afford it. Bravo to all involved in this Masterpiece!!!!!

This song is so heaven sent that it is shameful that it is not available for the general public
The song and the person’s voice is breathtaking and the pup Omg ♥️
“I Found A Place In My Heart” is such a beautiful song. Each time the commercial comes on, this song brings a smile to my face and warms my heart. Emma Smith does such a wonderful rendition of the song. I, like others, would greatly appreciate it if you would release this song for purchase. It truly lifts my spirits, and I find myself singing the few lyrics that I know all the time. This world could use something beautiful and inspirational.
Ditto to all comments. Please release entire song. We stop to listen every time it comes on.
Please publish this song!!++
My sentiments exactly. I recorded on my voice memo and love it every time I listen —- just can’t get enough of it. Please complete the song and record for sale. I LOVE IT!!!!
BTW — the dog reminds me that I need to take my little cocker spaniel for outings more often!

They would be crazy not to release this song as a single.Absolute free advertising.
I am not looking for a car, but I love the commercial. Great idea. Beautiful song. It makes me want to dance and adopt that dog. ;0) . That gal has a beautiful voice.
This song is fantastic! Best commercial in years!

public. PLEASE make the song available to us. Brilliant commercial.
I can’t afford a Range Rover, but I can afford to pay for a copy of the song by Dom James/Emma Smith if made
public. PLEASE make the song available to us. Brilliant commercial.
I finally found the name of the song and artist by using Shazam. No I can’t rest my brain until the long version of this song is available. I love the dog and love the Land Rover but can’t afford the vehicle. My son has a Land Rover so I’ll have to just ride in his.
Love this song
Who sings it?
I absolutely love this song. It is beautiful. It speaks to your soul. You can hear it on YouTube.
Please release that song x we rescue dogs and that sing and dog would be great xx please please
I’ve loved the song too since the first time I heard it. So romantic!
It’s coming soon… watch this space!
Do you know the dog breed used in this evogue commercial? Would most appreciate..
Love the song it is so soothing. Love the singer’s voice.
Is there anywhere on the Internet that plays the entire song? Or I’d what you hear on the commercial the entire length? I would love to hear the complete song. Or hopefully they will make it into a song we can purchase. I definitely would buy it. It really speaks to me when I hear it. Very soothing. And relaxing.
I LOVE that song….please release it….I will buy it!
Please please release that beautiful song!!!
Great song!! Please put it up for sale! Even if just these 3 lines sang a couple times!
great song, but have a complaint about the editing…I always liked to edit to the music, and the first few scenes are close to the vocal, but when the band comes in (lyric ‘PLACE’), the close up of the dog is a
half a second early — can’t believe they didn’t cut it on the beat…jars me every time I see it…looks like a rough-cut edit that they forgot to fix…I re-cut it and it flows better but it still need some adjustments for my eye: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nbm_9F5TuuKxQHTwaMkN5eucw_zQmIDk/view?usp=haring big $$$$ commercials are one of the few things in life that are supposed to be perfect.
If there is a full song to this intro it could be a hit as big as Over the Rainbow from the Finding Forrester movie. You’ve got a hit on your hands if you have a whole song!
Would be a super hit.
Got to release full version love it so much. This somg will go to the top.
A dog dream commercial I don’t understand why this song isn’t release you can make money… release the song
This a great song.I believe it could be a great hit.Love it!!!#
Love Love this song!! Please release the full version ❣️
Please please please release the whole version of this song I originally searched everywhere to download it to my phone until I eventually browsed the Internet and found it. This is beautiful! Very soulful!
Please release this song, its wonderful!!
Please make it available. Is it a complete song? I want it. It’s great.
Release the full version please. It’s stuck in my baby’s head
Please finish and release this song. Powerful!
Great song! Wish it was available for purchase. Would love to have.
Captivating; soulfully sexy but only 30 seconds.
domjamesmusic.com and singer/songwriter emmasmith_music says a full length version of “A Place in My Heart” is on its way.
An announcement that’s pure music to my ears.
D
This song caught my ear! It is a billion dollar song! Please release it in the USA!
LOVE THIS SONG AND HER VOICE
love the song should be available
Love the song her voice is so relaxing. Please release
I need this song in my life..please release it
Agree this is a great song and certainly want to buy it. However, it is very very similar to “Every Beat of My Heart” by Gladys Knight & The Pips. I am wondering if the reason it has not been released is due to copyright issues because it is so similar to the Gladys Knight song. I am thinking maybe the Gladys Knight song inspired it and the very short Range Rover commercial version was only licensed for the commercial.
The song has my vote. Really sets the mood.
PLEASE….PLEASE make this song available to purchase.
It’s simply marvellous, can’t get it out of my head. More please, more!!
I love this song, it is a perfect song perfectly sung,bring it out to purchase! !!!!! Pleeez.
Great song, should be released.
Brilliant! Emma Smith is amazing.
Please release the full version of this beautiful song ,Emma Smith vocals are brilliant on this tune.
I can not believe this isn’t a full song! It’s unfortunate.
I agree this is a beautiful song. Needs to be released to buy love it!!!
Fab idea…. tease us with another couple of lines next ad. Then go full throttle for Christmas No 1. All proceeds to charity. It’s a no brainer.
What kind of dog is in the April 2019 commercial?
I love that song and the voice is some hot buttered soul.🔥Emma Smith awesome voice.
Please finish and release this song!
It is a beautiful song recorded by a very rich and stirring voice.
The dog featured in the advertisement is also handsome.
Great tune, terrific lyrics, and a smooth performance by Emma Smith…..all ingredients for a potentially Top Ten single. Hope the producers will consider taking to the next level.
Please release the song or do we have to buy the car to get it?
Does anyone have the lyrics to these four lines? I have the first three, but the last one ‘I found my Heaven, umhmm, when …and it fades away. Anyone understand that part?What fabulous soul Emma Smith and this short verse have ❤️🐶🐾
Sounds exactly like the song in the movie “Leap Year” with Amy Adams.
Emma Smith! Beautiful voice and great interpretation. I’d like to hear the whole song. Please somebody in the music business- get on it.
What a great R&B/soul experience this song recreates. It is a flashback to the fifties or early sixties. Loved Emma Smith’s rendition as well as that of the back-up singers.
Please please release as a song so I can purchase ! Beautiful song💕
Love this tune and so appropriate for the product….Range Rover.Wish We could purchase the recording❤️
It is the most beautiful song I feel like I’ve ever heard, a song that could belong to each individual soul! Please find a way to record it and make it available beyond the commercial, to good to leave it in a commercial.
Beautiful song. Very touching indeed. Would love to have this song. Hope they release it.
On composer Dom James’ website: “This tune’s causing a stir at the moment on the latest Range Rover ad.

http://www.domjamesmusic.com/adland/range-rover-evoque-i-found-a-place-in-my-heart/#a
Land Rover has stated that this is an unreleased original song “A Place In My Heart” by Dom James, et al, featuring you. on vocals HOWEVER – the absence of a full song release is probably due to great similarity to a 1952 motown classic “Every Beat of my Heart” by Johnny Otis, and especially similar in arrangement to the 1961 cover version of that by Gladys Knight & the Pips. Perhaps they asked James to compose 30 seconds of “something like this” and there never was a full version. Perhaps there are royalty/permission issues with the owners of the original, and/or figuring out if they or Dom James can make it worth their while economically for a general release. Also maybe negotiating with the owners for back-royalties if they tried to crib from it without permission.
Some analysis:
ORIGINAL BY JOHNNY OTIS 1952: Same 1st 4 notes & same chord sequence, but just a choral wash background thereafter, no real rhythm or percussion
https://youtu.be/UPLsqs9mkfM
GLADYS KNIGHT & THE PIPS 1961. VERY much like the opening of the Land Rover Dom James / Etta Smith song: the slow acapella voice opening, then same treatment as used by LandRover, with syncopated upbeat entry of the bass into a 3/4 shuffling waltz beat.
https://youtu.be/36I9neyNCzA
In 1981 Otis released a new version, at least on this show, with the same bass entry and shuffling waltz beat as in the Pips’ version
https://youtu.be/cV_ytLMMAAE
Then in 2018 a new recording or remastering of the 1961 Pips version. I actually prefer the 1961 recording, when the beat kicks in the Pips high vocals above Gladys’ main line are more proiminent in the mix, like a gospel choir, which I think is just fabulous. But overall the sonics are better, here in 1080 HD stereoo
https://youtu.be/MI71yyterAg
Dom James featuring EMMA SMITH, when you guy’s release this song your going to rock the world!
I love that song and I love the commercial. Most of all, I love that dog!! Please record the full song for purchase/download.
Love this song like everyone else. Thought at first it was Etta James (who sang “At last”). Wish it was complete and could be downloaded…PLEASE!
I love this song…I’d buy in a heartbeat. I have an ear for music, am a DJ and musician and love love love this song…
All of us that LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this song have ears for music too… we HEARD it…
Love this song! I too thought it was Etta James. Please finish it!!
My dog Coco loves this advert. I think she’s got a crush on the dog lol !!!!!
What type of dog is in this commercial? Is not an Australian Shepard as people have been saying . All you gave to do is look at the length of hard. Help please, appreciated.
Warm regards
Looks like a Jack Russell.
PLEASE make the Dom James/Emma Smith version available for download — AND donate the proceeds to animal rescue!!
What a great idea, Chrys Lavelette! I’d buy that song immediately!
Enough already, this song is AMAZING and so is the dog and The vehicle. Please release the song, I will buy the Range Rover,
OMG! I love the song for this commercial! It touched my heart. Please tell us where to get the music.
Love the dog and song.
I also thought this was Etta James and wondered how I missed this song all this time. I would buy this in a heartbeat.
If only from a marketing standpoint, not to mention obvious deman, it really seems like a no brainer for Dom James & Land Rover release this song for download & donate the profits to a legitimate animal rescue org. of the customers choosing. They could do so much for so little & garner heaps of goodwill in the process.. just ask Subaru how it’s worked out for them..? Please consider it !!
Fell in love with this commercial the first time seeing and hearing it. I am singing and or humming the few lyrics from commercial all day, everyday and my husband is screaming “NO MORE”, ” Please find the lyrics for the entire song, honey, PLEASE”. Lol
Looking forward to the full release.
What is the breed of dog? I LOVE the dog and the song!

I love this song, I need more it’s just wonderful.
Please send me a link when the song is finished. It sounds great!
The dog appears to be a Jack Russell, the ad is genius—I actually watch it every time it comes on, and the song needs to be released so it can be purchased. In an era where we have such bad music accompanying car and truck ads, this is a breath of fresh air. Beautiful.
Love the song and the commercial! Makes me smile! Please finish the song and release it!!!
I hate to Admit, I sit & WAIT for this song, then Turn UP the Volume 20 notches & sing along w/a Big Smile OMF!!!! Please Please Giv it to Us, a Whole Song, to BUY, wutever the Cost!!!! 🤗
Yes, my wife loves this song. Please make it available to the public. I’m sure many people will purchase it.
Love this song and would love to have it! Btw, love the dog, too!
I have been searching for this song, this voice. OMG !
This is a Jack Russell.
Please, please release this song for the public to enjoy.
I love the lyrics and music and dog, a Jack Russell?
I want a copy of the song; help me to obtain.
Great song… Please release it to the public..
Love this song! Please consider releasing for download.
Love the song looked all over for it please release the whole song great commercial
The Range Rover commercial….The dog and song are perfect together. I love them both!
The dog:
Is this about abandoning a dog in the desert? And the dog sees the car/owners that left him there?
Am I missing something like in this commercial?
I agree with Red Baron. It makes it look like the dog was taken out in the country and dumped.
Love this commercial! Love the theme, the dog and especially the song! Please release it!
I love this song. Please release it for us to enjoy. Wish l could get a CD with the whole song. The singer has got some voice. I can’t have enough of it.
What kind of dog is in the Range Rover commercial
RIP OFF!!! This song completely copied
Fats Domino
“BLUEBERRY HILL”
Another desperate attempt to connect an audience
With something familiar to make $$$$
Loved this song and her voice is so pleasing. I jump up and go to the TV every time I hear it. Wished more music was this good. Hopeful for more.
Sounds a lot like “A Place in My Heart” by the Sounds of Blackness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxpE5Nyhs7Q
It’s bullshit that they won’t sell the damn song separately. :p
Awe I love that song and Emma Smith’s voice. So calming and relaxing. Don’t hear good music like that anymore. Wish she would record that to sell along with other songs. She has a beautiful voice and needs to be heard. Joyce
I love the Range Rover Evoke commercial!! What is the breed of dog that was used ?
I want to do that sng in my band
So beautuful and my little Jack Russell looks just like that precious dog in the commercial. PLEASE FINISH THE SONG AND MAKE IT AVAILABLE so we can buy and/or download. That song is too beautuful to put into wirds…
PLEASEEEEEE, PLEEZEEEE RELEASE THIS SONG TO THE PUBLIC FOR DOWNLOAD OR SALE.
GOOD WEDDING SONG
The song is pure bliss! Sad that they won’t release it. Several years ago there was a similar stir when a TV commercial by Travelers Insurance Company had a dog in it and the song that was used in the commercial was “Trouble” by Ray LaMontagne. Many people were drawn to the commercial because of the song, which became available for purchase.
Super commercial. I LOVE this song. Please maker it pubic.
Beautiful start to a great song, must complete and release it!!
Gotta gotta gotta hear the rest of this tune. 😍
Great commercial, great song and well produced. In my mind it’s up there with the crying Indian in the 70’s. Well done chap’s. There is great monetary rewards if you complete and release that song, I surely would purchase it.
Palm Beach Gardens
Florida
It is soooo beautiful. Please finish it and release.
Please release the song , it’s so beautiful , reminds me of my husband and our dog . It’s a shame not to share this beautiful song.
I fell in love with my FIANCÉ all over again when this commercial played and I tried DOWNLOADING it only to get my heart broke 😭. I need this song bcuz I wanna have my first dance as husband and wife to THIS song. 🥰🥰🥰🥰 Please be kind and release the song. Oh and her voice is PERFECT for this song.
Love ❤️ love 💕 that song please release it before someone else does.
When will the entire song be available. I will immediately purchase it! Love the lyrics! Want more!
Thought this was somehow a classic that I had never heard before, so like everyone else I searched for it only to realize that it’s a modern take. Prepared and written by those who obviously love the art , and in their appreciation were inspired to create something honorable in its own right. If YOU don’t, please sign over the rights , get paid, and allow someone to finish it.
Emma Smith should released this song It’s beautiful !!
Love the lyrics and the style of this smooth jazzy song.
Please do the world a favor and release it soon.
Pleeeze finish & release this song, as everyone else has begged you to do! Sounds like a throwback to Etta James! Love it!
No ones interested in what we want they onky want to sell range rovers
The Dog’s Deep Brown Eyes, and the slow jazzy 60’s-ish intro really works and sets the warm mood for the rest of the commercial!
“By the way, I Love dogs ❤ what’s the name of the dog?
“And yes, share that beautiful song with world ❤
Can someone give us an update on the status of “the song” please. Thank you.
– This song makes me want to be in LOVE again. P L E A S E, P L E A S E, P L E A S E release it to us soon.
– This song makes me want to be in LOVE again. P L E A S E release it to us soon.
Beautiful song, please release it. Old school awesome.
This song is beautifully done. Does Emma Smith have any other recorded songs out?
Will this song ever be completed and released?
Gladys Knight and the Pips song “with every beat of my heart” sounds similar
I can only express what all the other commentators feel. WOW,WOW,WOW no pun intended. I’m a 73 year old who when first I heard the tune was immediately entranced by the melody. And yes, it’s bluesy, jazzy and lyrically beautiful. Please release as a complete song. Awesome!!!
Great slow dance song. Yes does remind of Etta James . Writer & singer should finalize & release as a song. Do they know how popular it is???
I’ve always thought it was Etta James singing this song. So smooth.
Please please please make this a whole song available for downloading. I would love to listen to it over and over again!! What are you thinking? Thank you!!
Yes please release this as a whole song! Makes me think of falling in love again!💕
Oh yes!! It’s so beautiful
What type of dog is that in the commercial?
I’m absolutely loving this song! I hope they see all of these comments and release a full version. The few lyrics we hear are simply beautiful.
I just lost my doggy soul mate unexpectedly. He was the most beautiful Black and Tan Doxie. There will never be another that compares. When I heard this song, it so captured my feelings. Please do release a full version.
Wonderful commercial, and the song is beautiful! I can’t get it out of my heart, and really don’t want to. Please release it to the world.
Oh boy you got me going looking for the
Whole version of this song especially when
I heard from the Rover ( car commercial)
I wanna hear more of her singing. Emma-
Smith. Release a copy for all to hear. You
Just might bring some peace and Harmony
We all want. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Omg! I searched the entire internet looking for this song! And I couldn’t find it anywhere not even you tube! Until I read this article that the song was specifically created for the advertisement with Range Rover and the sweetest dog I ever seen! It’s such a lovely song! I fell for it the first time I heard it! Please complete the lyrics and make it available for purchase or downloading! Dom James and Emma Smith!
Mentioned to my wife how much I love “this particular” production of a wonderful song. She said, “Yes! I love it too!”. Disappointed to discover it was a unique recording, not a whole song.
If I was in the music business, I’d be gettin’ busy dropping a complete version of this song by that exact band and singer.
Perfectly, an entire album of similar romantic songs.
Love is alive and well! Please Release!
Is the dog in the commercial a Beagle Mix? He or she reminds me of my Beagle. I always think of Penny when I see this ad.
Great commercial! It makes me happy and the song is lovely!! I wanted to buy it on iTunes the minute I heard it. I hope there will be a way some day.
