So.... here's the commercial:

It's a verizon commercial for the v710 model phone.... There's a guy walking in a train listening to his headphones. He stumbles into another train car where a band in playing a song.... then he wakes up from this strange trippy dream he's having and finds that he's sitting next to a guy in a purple velvet jacket (the singer of the band was wearing this).

Does anyone know what song this is? It's been really bugging me.

I recommend you all watch the TV for hours until you find this commercial. Yes.

No, but an awesome commercial is the Dentyne Frost Bites one where the dude eats a bunch in a taxi, then his head freezes and falls off and his girlfriend and the taxi driver are screaming back and forth. Funniest commercial ever.

I hate that commercial for Lamisil (sp?) foot fungus tablets, where this little "fungus" beast thing lifts UP the toenail of some person, and digs right in. The whole lifting up of the toenail makes me cringe.

I agree. This is a disgusting commercial.

Too bad it's NOT WHAT THIS POST IS ABOUT!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, this has been bugging the crap out of me.

If anyone has any ideas... please send them my way.

Well, there's the sticky thread Master what song is this list? in the TFP Music forum, you could have put your request there. And, you can't get too angry at omega2K4, since his reponse did match your thread title.

As to the song? I don't know, I haven't seen the ad, and for the first time, Adtunes.com has failed me.

"Advertising for Veriations All begins today in Massachusetts and New York. The television commercials feature a rendition of The Beatles' song "All Together Now." (See related news release, "Verizon Launches Advertising for Innovative 'Veriations' Package of All Communications Services.")"

found that via google, but having no television and probably(undoubtedly) living in the wrong country has stopped me from seeing this commercial so quite frankly i have no idea if thats what youre looking for or not.

The Blue Man Group commercials for Intel's Centrino Technology are a good intro for mass audiences to this very excellent group of performers.

Is the name of performers The Blue Man Group? I've seen the commercials, and like the songs.. Didn't know they were a group though outside of the ads.

Are the band members also in the commercials (as the blue guys)?

Sorry, I'm a little confused, but would like to check out more of their songs..

Thanks.

Redlemon

Well, that's a complicated question. You can start with their website: Blue Man Group. They are a performance art group, with 3 blue men and a backup band. They have a stage show (Tubes) and a concert performance (The Complex). They are performing in five locations simultaneously, so there are more than just the 3 "blue men".

The album The Complex is outstanding, I play it a lot.
Art, you were the first to mention Blue Man Group in this thread. Are you saying that they performed the song? I found no reference to that in the Verizon articles (A and B)

ARTelevision

They perform in the commercials as they did in their original performance art pieces - as abstract post-modern gymnasts. They have always been true "performance artists" (that is where my own interest in their work lies, as well) and have expanded their repertoire to include multimedia.

I know that I've only seen the commercial once.

That commercial for Brush Ups is the most annoying thing I've ever seen. Stupid song, stupid commercial, and a stupid product.

PredeconInferno

Does anyone know who Bob Rohrman is? His commercials piss me off royally.

dood

Most commercials make me want to shoot myself in the face. But occasionally there's a good one, like the Rube Goldberg Honda commercial. That one was really sweet, if you haven't seen it its posted all over the web. It took them over 300 takes to get it right.

buclao

Brush Ups is a product made by Crest I think. It's a little condom like thing you slip on your finger and you brush your teeth with it. The fact that they think people will brush their teeth with a minty finger condom is totally absurd.

The best/worst commercial I ever saw was for Earthworm Jim. It was an early morning before school and my brother and I were eating breakfast. The commercial comes on with an old lady eating a giant bowl of worms and my brother hurls everywhere. It was disgusting but hilarious at the same time.

skier

Buclao you just gave me something to try....

wesley that's hilarious! I still remember that commercial (vaguely)
