I spent most of my career in advertising and marketing and have been part of more promotional campaigns than I can remember. Even if those days are behind me, I have never lost my enjoyment of a good creative idea well executed. I have a particular fondness for funny commercials that still deliver the message. Here are five of my all time favourites. Thanks to YouTube, I am able to enjoy them again and again. I hope you enjoy them too.
1. Budweiser: Sleigh Ride 2006 (USA)
2. Bud Light - Bad Dog! 2007 (USA)
3. Kia Soul - Black Sheep Hamsters 2010 (USA)
4. Optika 2008 (Denmark) - The caption at the end reads: "Glasses broken? Opitker 1hr!
please note: this commercial is highly suggestive and may be offensive to some.
5. Tim Horton's (Canada) - Proud Fathers 2009
This is absolutely one of my all time favourites
You may have seen some or all of these before but I hope that like me, they still bring a chuckle and a laugh. God knows we seem to be in short supply of laughter these days.
Thanks Sunshine...I'd forgotten about these, and it's a nice to revisit them :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed them.
DeleteOh wow, that commercial featuring singing hamsters is so cool! The choice of music is brilliant. Today's younger generation can pretty much identify with the hip-hop genre. Also, the hamsters are so cute -- surely they will instantly attract the attention of the viewing public.
