It is indeed Telepopmusik - give that man a cigar!   The song's title is 
"Just Breathe".

Don't forget Gus Gus's "Ladyshave" which brought them across the 
Atlantic.  That was in the "Good Loser" Mitsubishi commercial a few years 
ago...around when they first started the whole series of music commercials.

Also "Ready to Go" by Republica (a damn fine group - shame they broke up), 
"Lust for Life" by Iggy Pop, "Spybreak" by The Proppellerheads (who I 
thought ruled well before The Matrix made them famous), "Get What You Give" 
by "New Radicals"
