Music in the commercial

From sophiashorai.com posted Mon, Jun. 25 2007

As for a release of her rendition [of "Hello, Goodbye"], it's not in the cards at this point. Maybe someday!

Lyrics used in the commercial

You say goodbye
And I say hello
Hello, hello
I don't know why you say goodbye
I say hello

I say high
You say low
You say why
And I say I don't know
Oh, oh no

You say goodbye
And I say hello
Hello, goodbye
Hello, goodbye
Hello, hello
I don't know why you say goodbye
I say hello-o hello-o

Hey la, hey hey lo ah hey
Hey la, hey hey lo ah hey

Are you sure it is the retrograde watch? It looks like the watch is RED of course instead of orange or black.
splendAd Admin Keith July 20, 2007 18:36
Mike, don't know for sure. It looks pretty close to this Retrograde image:

Mike July 23, 2007 14:30
It is that watch. On the Timex website, they do not offer the black face with a SS band. It is with a leather band.
Chariah July 29, 2007 02:24

The commercial version by Sophia Shorai is catchy, but the Beatles tune was a nice note on communication.
Chibi September 11, 2007 16:44
Sophia Shorai does a nice low-key commercial version of this song, but the Beatles' original was a whimsical comment on a couple's crossed communication. All the beautiful melodic turns are from the original.
ASH September 28, 2007 10:46
I LOVE HER! GO SOPHI!!! HELLO GOODBYE> HELLO GOODBYE> I MEAN BESIDE'S ME LOVING TARGET, I LOVE THEIR NEW COMMERCIALS, WONDERFULL!!!! HELLO GOODBYE!!!

Can you tell me how the specific brands were decided on to appear in the campaign? (Peterson Milla Hooks? Target?) Did the brands "ante up" to be chosen for these ads? Would LOVE to know... Thanks!
Todd February 26, 2008 13:06
