Our What's That Song? series highlights music from commercials, movies, television, and video games. These are the songs that get stuck in our heads, whether we like it or not.​

The commercial: The new Apple iPad Pro commercial is a 60-second spot called "What's a Computer," starring actors Bruno Jin and Hannah Alligood.

The song: The playful electronic pop song is called "Go" by Chicago duo Louis The Child—the first track on their 2017 Love Is Alive EP. 

Louis The Child members Robby Hauldren and Freddy Kennett explain that the song was born when they were "messing around" between studio sessions. Kennett told Billboard that "Go" pushed him out of his usual comfort zone, saying, "That's the first one I'm really singing on. It's exciting to have my voice on a track. With 'From Here' I sung on it, but it wasn't so much a vocal-centered song as this one is. I love the indie vibe there. It's like Two Door Cinema Club mixed with our drums."

You can listen to "Go" on Spotify, Apple Music, or via SoundCloud below.
