Angeló Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 OMG guys this is so weird so the football *soccer* game between Italy & Austria is over .. and BeIn Sports (the network from Qatar that's showing the Euro Cup) was running some TV ads (spots) , and there's an App / Delivery Service called Smiles (provided by the UAE telecommunications company, Etisalat) and I swear they were using the YYB music !! I thought I was going crazy but they repeated it at the end of the ad too !! you know the music at the start of the YYB game ...?? tatatatatatatan ! I can't miss it !! ...

Tedhaun Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 I just watched the Smiles advert you posted, and I heard a snippet of music taken straight out of Shootout Showdown rather than Yooyuball (no offense mate). It's not too uncommon for TV ads and TV shows et al to use or share music from Neopets games or the other way around. Angeló 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they uploaded it to some open source music library Etisalat is a huge multi-national company. I doubt they would steal just like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Oh gosh, it is SOSD, isn't it. *goalie flashbacks* So with adverts and TV shows pinching music, and schools using Kougras as mascots, I wonder just how much Neopets has infiltrated RL xD Reminds me of Pedobear's invasion of the mainstream about 10 years ago...

Angeló Posted July 1, 2021 Author Share Posted July 1, 2021 I took this to Reddit and someone Shazam'ed the music So apparently TNT didn't make the music for the Altador Cup , they bought it https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=bAJLtd6vmpw&list=RDAMVMbAJLtd6vmpw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 That's cool to know! So any righteous indignation at it being used elsewhere was misplaced. Angeló 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodhi Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 A few years ago, I discovered this tune. See if you can recognise it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
