Various versions of this commercial for Calzedonia, an Italian hosiery and swimwear company with stores throughout Europe, have been playing here in Spain for a few weeks. The singer's powerful voice immediately caught my attention, but of course there were no credits offered at the end of the spots. Thanks to the Internet, though, I was able to find out who the singer and the song are: Dorotea Mele (accompanied by the Czech National Orchestra) singing 'Lovely On My Hand' (music and lyrics by Fabrizio Campanelli).
Here is 'The Making of the Calzedonia for 25 Years Together Commercial' video, which offers a few glimpses of Dorotea.
Lovely on My Hand is available on iTunes.
And, finally, here is a version that is not an ad, with the song's lyrics rather cleverly presented.
Lovely on my hand.. A special video from Fabrizio Campanelli.
