Titled ‘Save On College – Save The Everyday – Meet Cute Chaos’, Amazon has just launched this new commercial for the summer of 2025 featuring a couple of chance encounters between a female student and guys at her college.
The Amazon ad spot shows a young woman bumping into a guy while rushing through their college’s hallway, their eyes and hands awkwardly meeting in typical rom-com fashion as he helps pick up her stuff.
As the pair’s hands unintentionally brush against each other’s, the girl is embarrassed to notice that much of her nail polish has worn off, leaving them looking less than ideal for this romantically-charged first-time encounter. She then wastes no time in fixing this issue by ordering more nail polish from Amazon, right then and there on her phone.
Then, as she gathers herself and walks away, she catches a less-than-pleasant whiff of her underarm body odour, leading her to quickly add some deodorant to that order. From there, we see her picking up her Amazon package before turning and bumping into another guy, and the process begins all over again.
What’s the Amazon commercial song?
The name of the song featured in this 2025 Amazon commercial with the college students is the track “Only You” which is performed by the synth-pop music British duo Yazoo, composed of keyboard player Vince Clarke and singer Alison Moyet.
The song was released in 1982 as the group’s debut single and appeared on their first album, “Upstairs at Eric’s”. Vince Clarke, formerly of Depeche Mode, wrote Only You after leaving the band and recruited Moyet, whose soulful and passionate vocals contrasted with Clarke’s electronic style.
As you can hear in the Amazon advert and the full music video below, the track features synthesiser melodies combined with emotional lyrics about longing and lost love. You can stream or download the full song on Amazon or watch a performance in this YouTube video:
In the UK, the track became a big hit, reaching number 2 on the official UK Singles Chart and becoming one of the defining tracks of early 1980s synth-pop. Meanwhile, in the United States, its reception was more modest, reaching number 67 on the Billboard Hot 100.
However, the song gained popularity over time, becoming a classic in both British pop and electronic music. It has since been covered and featured in many films, TV shows, and ads both sides of the Atlantic, with this Amazon ad spot now becoming the latest addition to that long list.
