Mylo - In My Arms melody from a Pac-Man/7-UP advert!

Click here and watch the second video. The complete melody for In Your Arms appears to come from an ad that must have aired in the 1980s...

Yes, it's pretty much common-knowledge that Mylo legally sampled old tunes for In My Arms. The tracks are Waiting for a Star to Fall by Boy Meets girl from 1988 and Bette Davis Eyes by Kim Carnes from 1981.

This is the only correct answer.

Amusingly, both sampled artists demanded 50% of the track's royalties, meaning Mylo made bugger-all money from the track.
