I'm pretty sure this song is from an old movie, but I can't place it and it's driving me crazy. The song consists of many voices singing different syllables, like "bah dah bah bah" with no words. I don't think there is even any background music. Please help. I keep picturing the opening credits of a movie with shots of NYC in the background with this song playing, but I could be wrong about that part.

I have done a little more research and this is what j c penney tell me
Here is a list of all the songs that were used for Academy/Spring
TV.
Train Station
"The Way I Feel Inside," by the Zombies (licensed)
Calendar "How can it be"
Original music composed by Nylon, an Australian music company featuring singer Melanie Horsnell
available on itunes.
Life Imitates Art (movie commercial)
"South American Getaway," composed by Burt Bacharach (licensed,
originally written for "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid")
Ambrielle (lingerie)
"The Breakfast Drama" by Populous (licensed)
If the J C Penney ad is the one called "calendar" in the 2007 awards the singer is Melanie Horsnell from Australia and the song is "How Can it Be"
You can hear the full song on

'South American Getaway', written by Burt Bacharach for Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid. It plays not while they are in New York, but the first visit to South America. It is available on iTunes.

Daniel, I don't know, but do you know who sings the other JC Penney song, " I say and so say I, my morning thought it knew itself just fine until across the room it caught its first glimpse of my afternoon... its a women's voice..????? I recorded the oscars, I'll see if I can find the one you're talking about....

That song caught my attention, too - I think it's from a movie called "Who's Minding the Mint?" starring Jim Hutton from the 60's(?) I'd like to find the movie to purchase - it was a great movie!

It was from "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" The scenes where they are showing a bunch of bank robberies. Love that movie.
