Bad Commercial & Jingle combination

Uhhhh is anyone else disturbed that the new "jingle" for Viagara is Queen's "We are the champions"?

What other weird combinations do you know of.

I think the best one tho is "Sometimes when we touch" for the Geico commercial.

Those Ford commercials they show on American Idol each week are just plain awful. Awful, awful, awful!!!

Same goes for that Easter Toys 'R Us ad with those 2239205390875 bunnies singing "Peter Cottontail". I couldn't get it out of my head for WEEKS.

AGGGHHHHHH! That commericial freaks the crap out of me!

The other one that freaks me out is the Six Flags commercial with the dancing creepy old guy! The song that goes with it is like "The Venga Boys are coming... etc."

The Viagra commercials I see here are to "My Way"...middle aged men belting it out in the shower.

"Feelin' Alright" as a cat-food commercial. I don't know why but this bugs the heck out of me. Maybe it's because Joe Cocker sang it and he looks like he would eat my cat, not feed it.

I know. I'm almost embarrassed to watch them, but they make me laugh so hard! I especially loved the van one where all the AI contestants were made out of paper and the cop tried to pull them over...classic. Reminded me of Flat Stanley.

Okay, I thought you all were talking about the Ford commercial that sings "I love....." not the ones with AI.

The "I love..." commercial starts out showing a big huge F-150 or something (I'm a chevy girl I don't know) and a guy sings "I love....." and then they show baby ducks and .....it goes "I love...lil' baby ducks....some thing something and I love hay" Its so stupid!!! Why would you want to sell a Mustang or mega man truck to some soft lil' I love song??
