Quote (Ugo @ Dec. 13 2010, 15:11) | @ Matt: the Irn Bru ad is indeed very humourous - the way the song starts evokes a certain mood, but then the lyrics say something completely different. The imagery reminds me of a Queen video, I'm not telling you which one, you may surely guess it as some of the drawings are nearly identical. BTW, what kind of drink is Irn Bru? Beer? Or something like Red Bull? |
Irn-Bru, an orange coloured non alcoholic carbonated drink made in Scotland (from girders! - well that was one of their previous advertising campaigns ).
Not really red bull exactly, though it does have a lot of caffiene in it! Maybe more like a cola comparison?
BTW the video, both song and animation style, are a take-off of a stunning sequence from animated short film The Snowman. OK, let's have that as well below The Snowman
Actually, that has a bit of a Mike link since Aled Jones (Pictures in the Dark) did a cover version of the same song whch was very successful, it isn't Aled singing in the clip above however.
