What's the name of the US Open theme song?

August 22, 2006 8:56 PM

Theme-song-filter: I'd like to know the name and artist of the song the USA network is using in their commercials.

It's been driving me nuts...in all their commercials for US Open tennis coverage, the USA Network uses this one song. The title is on the very edge of my memory, and I'd love it if someone could tell me the title and the artist. The song can also be heard on the website here.

Thanks in advance!

Sounds like Black Horse and the Cherry Tree, by KT Tunstall, no?

Yes, it is KT. And if you click on the link for "music" they have a whole web page on KT. See here.

She's pretty good BTW.

Hmmm...4 minutes from OP to answer, GaelFC.

Very nice. :)

She also did the song "Suddenly I See" in the film The Devil Wears Prada. Interestingly, this song isn't on the film CD but can be found on her album "Eye to the Telescope" (iTunes link) --along with Black Horse and the Cherry Tree.
