There was a commercial that aired for several weeks about 3-6 months
ago.  I don't remember the brand being advertised or anything in
particular about the commercial, but I do remember the song that
played in the background.  Part of the lyrics were "I said I'm cool,
I'm calm, it's going to be okay."  It was a female singing. I wish I
had more info to give but I need to know what is the name of the
artist and the song/album title?

Hello.

I believe that the song you're looking for is "I Love Myself Today" by
Bif Naked.

See the lyrics, including the lines you mention, on the web page
azlyrics.com:
"I love myself today
Not like yesterday
I'm cool, I'm calm
I'm gonna be okay!"
http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/bifnaked/ilovemyselftoday.html

As noted in an October 2002 press release, "I Love Myself Today" has
been featured recently in an ad campaign for General Motors' 2003
models.
