Song: The Last Thing On Your Mind by Lights

Lyrics used in the commercial

Don't think too hard
If you think it hurts that bad
Don't talk about it
Don't let it get you down
It's only one part
Of the story
Just let it go
Don't let it bring you down now
Sing the last thing on your mind
The last word on your breath
I'll be the one to keep you
One disaster less
Straighten up your tie
Take the microphone
Forget about it
Don't let it get you down
Now is not the time
And you're not alone
Shut up about it
No one can bring you down now
Sing the last thing on your mind
The last word on your breath
I'll be the one to keep you
I'll keep you at your best
The last thing on your mind
'Cause I don't need your mess
I'll be the one to keep you
One disaster less
I'll be OK
I'll be OK if you'll sing
The last thing on your mind
The last word on your breath
I'll be the one to keep you
I'll keep you at your best
The last thing on your mind
'Cause I don't need your mess
I'll be the one to keep you
One disaster less
The last thing on your mind
The last word on your breath
I'll be the one to keep you
I'll keep you at your best
The last thing on your mind
'Cause I don't need your mess
I'll be the one to keep you
One disaster less

Description

This video is the extended version.

The star of this spot is a young woman we'll call the Neon Nights Girl. She's at a dance club with her friends, when she gets a call on her mobile phone. She seems to be arguing with someone, presumably her boyfriend. The bartender sees this and slides her a drink.

The scenes continue (at work by the copy machine / in the ladies room) with Neon Nights Girl constantly checking her cell phone for calls or messages. Her friends try to keep her mind off the phone.

Eventually Neon Nights Girl gets a call, but it's from the bartender, who's sitting right across the street.

This ad (airing May 2008) is the fourth installment in a series of advertisements using music by Lights. The musician herself also appears in this spot, performing in the club.

Filmed in Argentina, they created their own Chinatown street/alley.

Some of the Old Navy fashions in the ad are: Summer Strap Dress, Pleated Skirt,
Sleeveless Shirt, Keyhole Halter, Tropical Print Dress, and Striped Hoodie.
