Perhaps I have seen a different version of this commercial, but the music
is not Mozart, it's from  Carl Orff's Carmina Burana.  My chorus did
selections from the larger work a year ago.  I don't have the translation
with me or in my head, but those aren't the words I remember singing!  Does
anyone know -- are there more versions of the commerical?

(For those of you who don't know, Carmina Burana is a collection of Latin
secular texts set for chorus and orchestra by 20th century German composer
Carl Orff.)
