I know the advertising business hires great people to get the products stuck in the consumers minds. I have also been able to decipher the meaning within the commercials and find it fun. But there is one on the tv now that has burrowed into my brain. I think it's a gps manufacturer (okay so I don't COMPLETELY remember the product itself) but I know it's geared toward my generation and older sister's generation. How do I know that? Plain and simple, the song.
As I made some breakfast I caught myself singing "Turn around... every now and then I get a little bit..." and stopping. I think, where did that come from. Then I hear hubby singing the same thing as he's reading the paper. Later, in the shower I am in full song mode singing the same darn song! Then I realized... Darn it, it's that flim flaming commercial!
Now I'm trying to remember the lyrics and realized I really LIKE singing the song so I will more than likely try to learn them all (although I'm surprised I know as many as I do since it's an 80's song.) I'm even thinking of getting hubby to learn the song on his guitar so I can sing along. Damn commercial! Damn advertisers! *shaking fist angrily into the sky* Get out of my head!!
I went looking for the original video and found this on You Tube and cracked up!! *giggle*
