After seeing the new Prius commercial I realized that I had just heard a song that was strangely interesting to me. It isn’t even close to the type of music I listen to, but I had to know more about it. I know there are many other people who have gotten the urge to google the Prius commercial after hearing the song, so hopefully this information will answer a few of your questions.


The unique commercial is filled with people acting as scenery with a unique song playing in the background. After doing some looking I was able to find out that the song was originally by the Bellamy Brothers and is called “Let your Love Flow”. The song released in 1976 and reached the top of the country charts in 1979. Of course if you have heard this version you will know that it is not the same as the version in the Prius commercial.

The version of “Let your Love Flow” in the Prius commercial is a cover by Petra Haden. Unfortunately this version is only currently available on the Toyota website. I think that was a great idea to get people to visit the Toyota site although it does limit the songs availability. Most people would expect to find the cover on Itunes, but only the Bellamy Brothers version is there. It seems like a lot of people like Petra Haden’s cover of “Let your Love Flow” and the only place to get it is on Toyota’s site, but I think it will make it to Itunes some day.

So there you have it. The Bellamy Brothers classic hit “Let your Love Flow” was revived by Petra Haden on the new Prius commercial and it seems that it has become a hit song once again.
