There are so many ads on at the moment butchering existing songs. It's driving me crazy!

I really think that shouldn't be allowed. Not unless the original songwriter has sold the song to the advertising company.

Is John Deacon(Queen Basist, author of Another One bites the Dust), not a bit peeved everytime he hears "Another one buys a duster", or "Flash! Oooh-hoo, Where has all the dirt gone?". Changing the lyrics of "My Girl" to "Coffee" is particularly a new low for the marketing execs.

radio ad at the moment for 123.ie. girl sleeps it out and she's reacting like shes being viciously attacked. wrecks my head every time I hear it.

madmaggie

The coffee ad with the awful line "from Turin to Dub-lin", bloody painful. The UK version is worse.

I 100% hate those new Bulmers ads. Pure sh*te!

Hande hoche!

That new schweppes advert with yer man mumbling on about amateurs. Will be purchasing club tonic in the future.

blackvalley

Any ads that have adults speaking like babies ( harbero sweets ) . Not sure if that's the correct spelling .Or any ads that have children speaking like adults ( Recent Vauxhall car add)

The current L'Oréal ad with Helen Mirren. Really irritates me.

We knew there was going to be difficult times, yes love it's called life :P

Judging by the Beano's new ads which are tacked onto Sky 1's Simpsons showings, I'm guessing they've become some sort of Tesco Value 9gag. That's another bit of my childhood ruined. :rolleyes:

I'm surprised it's still being published, TBH - especially as it's over four years now since the Dandy closed.

Something needs to be done at this stage...

Dr Crayfish

Mick and f*cking Kate are bad enough... The new AIB ad with some nerdy w*anker proposing to his gf on a big wheel. Give me strength...

Shemale

I really don't get the Mick and Kate ad, they have two old people who look wrecked because they have paid AIB the price they paid for their house plus about 50%.

Shifty Shellshock

Mick seems an awful oddball altogether. Kate is an American. Just a very weird vibe about them. And they rant on about f*ckall.

I don't watch RTE so have not seen this ad.

I caught sight this couple for the first time on a huge billboard when I was driving down the n7 today. I did not realise they were a real couple and thought they were actors. I thought he looked a bit like Tom Jones.

As someone who is almost there (five years off paying off my mortgage) by myself, my first thoughts were, I wonder will it be a massive anticlimax when that last payment goes through?

My second thought to myself was, Well, that expensive anti ageing face cream I invested in really must do what it says in the tin!

Kate & Mick, Jooolie and Ceeeeeean, D4 kids getting their treeHAAAAS, i'm sure i have left yet about 10 other bank ads.

I'm sure the regular enormous cheques he receives more than compensate for any hurt artistic feelings he may have

The old bastard is back in the Ikea ad, jesus he has the most punch able face ever

madmaggie

Ould Mr Brennan, can't stand that ad.

You've out grown your house, it's for some bank in the U.K. God it's annoying

That Bulmers advert is on all the bloody time:mad::mad::mad:

the husband/dad portrayed as gimps wind me up, I caught part of one y/day, don't even remember what the product is, but women gossiping in the kitchen, husband appears out side with a bunch of flowers, the woman turns to the wife and asks her why he's being so nice and she points to a picture the kid has drawn on the fridge of mom and her hunky male friend at the gym, and hilarity ensues. wtf? reverse the genders on that one I don't think so.

The man in ads is nearly always an imbecile or butt of the joke.
