Well that's what I've been singing (or the rude version at least) to this tune .

Ad rant: Subway - Eat fresh
Does anyone get these ads? What's up with the Black Olives? Is it that no one likes them, rather like the McDonalds Gherkins? Anyway, who cares, this is a good example of how ads that don't make sense just become annoying. And I'm sure that if I (can be bothered) to find out what it's about, it won't make me feel any more interested in the brand than I was before.
And 'Eat Fresh', I see what they're trying to do with this strategy, but it's bloody boring and has that feeling that it's been written in a foreign language then translated.
I think 'Eat Depressed' would be more fun.
Ad rant: Coors light 'Hear me now' Spot
Two white guys rapping in fake Jamaican accents? Er, hello, but has the furore over the Trident Gum Ads been forgotten already? Whoever wrote this Ad must have had their head where the sun doesn't shine for the last couple of years. Crikey! And if producing an Ad that's going to be accused of being racist isn't bad enough, there seems to be no real idea behind it, the rap's not well written and it's not even funny - it just made me cringe!
Surely as soon as someone says "yeah, let's write a rap for an ad" you know the chances of them producing something good are very slim. So come on Ad folks, lets leave rapping to the rappers and get back to creating something that's really worth watching.
TV: Lost -The answers are here
Er, no, they weren't.
In fact, the programme contained no bloody answers at all! Do I feel cheated? Yes, and annoyed because I stupidly stayed up to watch it.

Ad Rant: U-Switch
Good God, the misery known as 'the U-Switch ads' continues.
All singing, all dancing, all bloody annoying!
And they're not the only guilty party, McCain and of course (how could we forget) Halifax,
are equally responsible.
It doesn't matter how they're sung, whether it's Gospel, Broadway Musical, whatever,
the message is that these musical style ads never produce anything but irritating dross.
Hopefully Clients will wise up and realise that picking a creative route which associates their brand with something that's fucking irritating is the wrong route to take.
Ad Rant: AQUAFRESH - Amazing(ly bad)
"You've found it...it's your mouth...and you've got a lot to look forward to!"
Christ, I can't help but cringe whenever I hear it. It must be the most bizarre beginning to an ad I've ever heard! And who writes this sort of stuff anyway? What a load of baloney!
I can see what they're trying to do with this strategy, but it doesn't quite hit the mark, and even if they change the execution, I can't see it getting any better.
Let's just hope the whole campaign gets canned asap.
