And it's something quite peculiar
Something that's shimmering and white
Leads you here despite your destination
Under the milky way tonight

The More You Know: Are you looking for the Lincoln MKZ commercial with "Major Tom (Coming Home)" by Peter Schilling? That cover was by Shiny Toy Guns.

  1. That answer is wrong. It's actually Sia Furler from her upcoming album We Are Born.

  3. It is Sia Furler, and it's finally available for download on the Lincoln website..

    Go to lincoln.com, click on media and events at the top, then click tv ads on the left submenu, then click on the MKT ad on the tv ads page, then click on download in the window that comes up! That's why I love lincoln... they always post free copies of their ad songs!

  5. I have to differ, Daniel. I stand by my answer. Nicole Atkins did cover the song last year on her "Digs Other People's Songs" EP, however, the version used in the Lincoln MKT commercial is done by Sia Furler or Sia as she seems to be going by now. This is further proven by the song being downloadable from the Lincoln site as stated by Jake in his previous post.
