Dont Stop............Sony Ericsson Walkman Ad

There are some beats and words that catch our eye and we keep humming them

there are others that we just dont remeber or care too much about...

and then there are those which sound familiar and our mind wonders what it sounded like....

There are ads we watch day in and day out
Some we remember for the images
Some for the models
and
Some others for the music/background score...

The Day i saw this Sony Walkman Ad on TV, i couldnt get the music off my head. Kept humming, singing these few words over and over... Finally, i gave in, hunted for the ringtone and pulled it into my phone...

While doing the research, i discovered it was a piece from the song Tik Tok by Kei$ha.... Curious to know what the whole song sounded like, i googled that and found this video...

Honestly- i dint like the song one bit.... the lyrics put me off.. the video was just trashy... but yet, the piece that Sony had chosen for their ad was perfect and peppy.....

Creativity & Content :

Sony Ericsson had used water and colours and a gorgeous model/dancer. They had made it look like we were watching a live performance, when the finale shows the video as being screened on the Sony Ericsson Walkman's OLED screen.. 

Recollection:

You bet i remember the ad even today... 

It has been days since i saw it 1st and dont think i've seen it too many times after that... 

The music does the trick here....

The dance in the rain does the trick.... 

Amazing clarity

Amazing sound

Sleek and smart looking.... 

The gadget had it all ...

It reminds me of Step up and Street Dance movies , the moves and grooves are simply too hard to forget... After a long time, this is an ad that i shall remember for a long time to come!! :)

Death at a Funeral

Directed by Frank O

 

Starring: Matthew Macfadyen, Rupert Graves, Alan Tudyk, Daisy Donovan, Kris Marshall, Andy Nyman, Jane Asher, Keeley Hawes, Peter Vaughan, Ewen Bremner, Peter Dinklage, Thomas Wheatley, Peter Egan........

This was a movie i had picked up awhile ago, saw bits and pieces till finally last evening me and my friend decided to give it a go and cracked up completely..... It stars a mostly British ensemble bunch of actors, most of whom look familiar and yet are unfamiliar.

The death of the Daniel and Robert’s father and the attempt to hold his funeral is what the plot circles around.. the occasion brings a whole lot of dysfunctional family members together. And amidst all this, when a midget of a man shows up threatening to reveal the deceased man’s shocking secret[That their dad was gay and he was his lover]  unless he gets some cash-15000 pounds, the two brothers are forced to figure out a way to deal with this blackmailer. With every scene, you are left laughing, completely flabbergasted at the chaos that is unfolding.... 

The hallucignic durg that Simon takes, making him go cuckoo, how Martha tries to keep him from jumping off the roof [ where he stands buck naked]... her useless brother, who was the reason all thsi happened [ who created the pill and put them in a Valium bottle] and so many other wierd members of the clan, each with their own set of problems and worries..!!! 

A fun movie, that is not so much as original comedy, but you will definitely have a few good laughs...

Its being remade in Hindi as Daddy Cool!! God save Bollywood and the rest of the world that watches it in hindi!! wonder how it will be!! hehe...
