Is it “Holiday for Strings?"
Destiny-land

Well, it –

Here’s my guess as to the mystery music you’re asking about ...

“Holiday For Strings"?

I’ve attached a version by The Voices Of Walter Schumann, whoever they may be ... more info on the particulars in the mp3 tags.

Usually when I boast about “the voices” I’m asked to up my dosage.

Okay. Originally this request was made by someone who was looking for a pizzicato instrumental musical composition that was used extensively in commercials. I believe this is the same song that is used in “Stimpy’s Big Day” during the make-up sequence (the commercial VHS tape features practically no musical credits at the end). This does not sound like “Holiday for Strings” (available here). There are variants of “Holiday for Strings,” perhaps it’s actually one of these (Spike Jones?). It is not the Voices of Walter Schumann version, that’s got the creepy choir singing along with practically the entire song (“doo doo, dooOOOoooodahhh” brrrrrr). There are a lot of these speeded-up plucky string instrumentals, and it seems that the success of “Holiday for Strings” is the reason (read the note at the url above).
