Singer was an automobile company founded in 1905 in Coventry, England. It was acquired by the Rootes Group of the United Kingdom in 1956, who continued the brand until 1970. The British Singer company had no connection with the Singer company of Mount Vernon, New York, USA, which made luxury cars from 1915 to 1920.

Singer (car) Video

This video is about Tose Proeski, famous Macedonian singer who tragicaly died today (16.10.2007) in a car crash. Although I wasn't his fan, I have always liked him cause he really was a wonderful man with beautiful voice and songs. This video is dedicated to him. PS I know about the gramatic mistake at the beggining, sorry, I was in hurry, I made this in like 5 minutes tops, so I noticed it too late...Song: Richard Marx- Right Here Waiting For You. RIP Toše Proeski

The TV ad was created by acclaimed London advertising agency BBH to support the Audi R8 high-performance sports car and features one of the most ironic claims in the history of advertising: "the slowest car we've ever built". The aim of the film was to make the process of constructing an R8 as beautiful as the car itself. The soundtrack for the commercial is provided by critically acclaimed folk singer Simone White. The beautiful track, 'The Beep Beep Song', is taken from Simone's new album -- 'I am the Man.'

You're wasting your time putting up comments about how rude I am, because they will be deleted. Meghan B. of South Carolina had it all, a bright career as a singer and a captain position on her cheerleading team until a car crash left her with no arms, years later this charismatic, strong willed teen managed to work her way up.
