John Lewis - a life

[Gronnuck]

I’m not a great fan of TV advertising; there’s always too many of them interrupting the programmes. This (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMtyOCoqHTk) however struck a chord and today I find it’s being raved about! What do you think?

Yes agree one of the better ones. Quite like some of the recent Honda ads too :D

[John Little]

Hm - that is rather..........good! :D

Ugh .. Pass the Bucket.

Its just another sign of the advertising industry and its gag inducing worship of women as some kind of saintly figures. It seems to be OK these days to ridicule men at every opportunity but anything short of worshipping women as godlike is seen as sexist.

Yes, I like it too and could listen to that song time and time again.

The advert is supposed to make us aspire to a middle class, perfect life which doesn't exist. That said, they do a great online service and the electrical goods are very competitively priced and come with an extended guarantee (I think)

[nightspirit]

Froma another car advert but the full version for those of you that love this song aswell.

No, it's a cynical attempt to tell you that you're going to die soon, so you should be spending all your cash in John Lewis. I feel more emotional staring at the empty contents of a chocolate digestive biscuit wrapper than watching this smug, derisive piece of commercial advertising. I assume those who do feel teary-eyed are indeed middle-class, and, probably, regular visitors to John Lewis. They can have it.

I like this one...

Edit - in fact there are a few good government ads at the moment (not that I can remember them right now grrrr) and one of my particular faves is the holiday insurance one

[Metalattakk]

There's none so good as this rather large (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mv5U0W8FDDk) ad.

[horseman]

Me Iliked the ad immensly.Produced good thoughts an smiles.An the detractors are some sad load off xxxxxxxxx.

[John Little]

LOL! Methinks at least one of the detractors is a young middle class rebel......
