I was just going through an old minidisc from 1996 and found I'd recorded the music from a Heineken ad, which sounds like a gospel choir singing "looking for America" over a beat very similar to Donna Summer's State of Independence.

Any ideas what the track actually was, anyone?
Thanks

Sounds like Moodswings featuring Chrissie Hynde, song called Spiritual High. it sampled State of Independence. I can't remember it being a Heineken ad myself but it could well have been.

Thank you very much, it's like this bit

but with some differences and extra vocals.

Could have been done just for the ad, but I'm hoping it was a real track and someone will know....

I've recently tried Shazam but it didn't know it. Must have been a one-off just for the ad.
