Saw the clip and it made me smile. I didn’t find having 96 computer-animated babies roller-skating to a rap song disturbing, just thought that the people behind this ad had a real “lightbulb” idea.
And found the next clip that shows the hardwork that went into the making of the Evian Roller Babies ad.
Haiz, looking at these cute babies make me think it’s not too bad an idea to have another.
” I love this short clip
I love the sights and sounds
I love the catchy tune
I love its simple words
I love the message
To love the whole wide world
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da “
Okay…. I am not very good at writing lyrics, so here are the actual lyrics. (Taken from SplenAd)
Lyrics used in the commercial
I love the mountains
I love the clear blue skies
I love big bridges
I love when great whites fly
I love the whole world [Les Stroud]
And all its sights and sounds
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
I love the oceans
I love real dirty things [Mike Rowe]
I love to go fast
I love Egyptian kings
I love the whole world
And all its craziness
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da [Richard Machowicz]
I love tornadoes [Joshua Wurman]
I love arachnids [Bear Grylls]
I love hot magma
I love the giant squids
I love the whole world
It’s such a brilliant place
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da [Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage]
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da [Stephen Hawking]
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
Each time D and I see this ad, we can’t help but laugh and think that TJ will be like one of the kids in the ad. Especially the boy in the highchair who used his cup to push all the milk onto the floor.
And the music is really catchy, don’t understand a single word but I like the beat.
I find myself singing that to TJ at times. Heheh. He would give me the “I think my mum has gone bonkers” look, before breaking into one of his killer smiles. And that means I will swing him high up, give him a big hug and a smacking loud kiss.
Times like these make me glad that I am staying home and spending time with TJ. I don’t know what are the odds of TJ not turning out like any of the kids in the ads, and especially how I would react if he makes a mess. I suppose I can’t very well tie him up and stop him from exploring and know about cause and effect.
Hope my sense of humour will tide me through these interesting behaviour in the not-so-far future.
Liked this ad which combines classical Korean instrument and solid hip hop beatboxing, scratching and excellent breakdance moves. Would give a leg and arm to be able to dance like that ;P
