Lyrics used in the commercial

If you don't believe me
If you don't like my plans
You mustn't tell me
I know your face like the back of my hand
To walk the city
I talk to you understand
So won't you tell me
I know this place like the back of my hand
My arms get cold
In February air
Please don't lose hold of me out there

And I know you're near me
I know you understand
Say that you're with me
Do you know my face like the back of your hand

My arms get cold
In February air
Please don't lose hold of me out there
There
There
February air, air
And i know this place like the back of my hand

Who is the brunette model with the bangs? I'm in love with her!

eustace February 21, 2008 13:18

the commercial comes on way too much in an hour's time.
it, the song, the models, their frilly posing and the senseless
"plot" are grating on my nerves.
thanks, i had to get that off my chest.

hamid February 21, 2008 13:45

You took the words right out of my mouth.
This commercial portrays these women (and models in general)
as silly and vacuous. Then Americans wonder why they're
not taken as seriously in the rest of the world...
I know, it's just a commercial. But commercials say a lot
about the cultures they represent/reflect.

catie7 February 21, 2008 21:09

Put on Itunes! would love to buy!

reena February 21, 2008 21:19
