Most of the popular songs debut on Triple J get played for several months, then get picked up by Nova, Hit(whatever it is now) and then get flogged to death as new music. I used to listen to Triple J, but tuned out when rap became too much.

I prefer singers who actually sing and not just talk along to a catchy tune

It was enough for the OP to start a topic, asking what that song was. The advertising guru's have done their job!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billie_Eilish

Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O'Connell (/ˈbɪliː ˈaɪlɪʃ/,[1] born December 18, 2001) is an American singer and songwriter. She first gained media attention in 2016 when she uploaded the song "Ocean Eyes" to SoundCloud, and it was subsequently released by Interscope Records subsidiary Darkroom. The song was written and produced by her brother Finneas, with whom she collaborates on music and live shows. Her debut EP, Don't Smile at Me (2017), reached the top 15 in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia.

Eilish's debut studio album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? (2019), debuted atop the Billboard 200 and became the best-performing album of 2019 in the US.[2] It also reached number one in the UK. The album contains six Billboard Hot 100 top 40 singles: "When the Party's Over", "Bury a Friend", "Wish You Were Gay", "Xanny", "Everything I Wanted",[a] and "Bad Guy", the last of which became her first number one single in the US.

Her accolades include five Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, two Guinness World Records, and three MTV Video Music Awards. She is the youngest person and first woman to win the four main Grammy categories, Best New Artist, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Album of the Year in the same year.[3][4]

You don't have to like her music, but many do. She has broad appeal, and has won many awards anyone else in the industry would envy.

All before she turned 18.....

The song caught my attention. Not the vehicle which is the purpose of the advertisement. My conclusion? Song? Weird. Vehicle? Not into SUVs as I prefer sedans.
