Notice anything?

I heard this about a year ago in a Volvo commercial.

Then again a few months ago in an Amazon Alexa commercial.

And then, last night, in a commercial for Etsy.

I have a feeling there are more in recent months/years, but those three are for sure in recent heavy rotation.

Three different companies, all advertising quite different products/services.

I just found it interesting. I loved the Volvo one...I've never heard a human voice sound like that, and every time it came on I'd stop what I was doing and watch, transfixed.

When I saw the Alexa one a few months back, I recognized that melody. And then, last night, on the Etsy one, I was like "okay, enough...find another song, people. It's not clever/interesting anymore".

PS - Mozart's The Magic Flute ("Queen of the Night" aria), for anyone wondering what I'm getting at...
