Lyrics used in the commercial

I love the mountains
I love the clear blue skies
I love big bridges
I love when great whites fly
I love the whole world
And all its sights and sounds
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
I love the oceans
I love real dirty things [Mike Rowe]
I love to go fast
I love Egyptian kings
I love the whole world
And all its craziness
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da [Richard Machowicz]
I love tornadoes [Joshua Wurman]
I love arachnids [Bear Grylls]
I love hot magma
I love the giant squids
I love the whole world
It's such a brilliant place
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da [Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage]
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da [Stephen Hawking]
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da
Boom-dee-ah-da, boom-dee-ah-da

Love it. I almost want to try it when I become an astronaut but I know I can't.

LaLa April 18, 2008 16:21

GlennG April 22, 2008 16:54

I usually can't stand ads with mismatched people singing off-pitch and off-time, but this ad rocks. Bonus points for including Stephen Hawking "singing" near the end. So incredibly cool. It's full of win.

Grateful Mama April 22, 2008 22:49

THANKS, meh!!! You made my day! You ROCK!

applenana April 23, 2008 02:58

Meh it teh awesome.

Papi April 23, 2008 12:38

Who are the voices of the astronauts? Are they voice actors, VO guys, or Discovery personalities? I recognize them, I just can't place them.

Donna April 23, 2008 15:03

This is the best commercial ever! Even when watching another channel, I keep tuning over to Discovery to see if this commercial is on.

Bobololo April 24, 2008 20:59

I love the mythbusters in this. Adam just lighting Jaime's arm on fire, and i think its very inspiring that they put Steven Hawkings in it.

As much as I like this ad, I do not like the short versions that Discovery is now playing. I feel "cheated" somehow.
