This year we have seen some really horrible ads from the likes of Little Caesar’s Pizza, DirectTV and Old Spice to name a few, but Geico will not be on the list. Their latest ad is so brilliant, that it reminded not all advertisers are bad. They did one of their “Did you know?” ads and this one made me take notice. One guy says to the other one, “Did you know that playing cards with Kenny Rogers gets old pretty fast?” Why is that case? Press play for a nice a surprise that will bring a smile to your face. I promise no strings are attached like that DirectTV ad that gives you nightmares.
Lionel Richie was on Jimmy Kimmel Live yesterday to promote his #1 country album Tuskegee and he told the ABC late host a story about a song he wrote for one of the biggest country music stars of all time. Richie teamed with Kenny Rogers to write two songs for him and one of the songs he pitched to the bearded singer was Lady. When he pitched it, he had only a few lines ready and said if he liked it he would finish it. When the two met to record, he had another song ready and thought that would suffice. Well The Gambler wasn’t playing and was ready the complete version of Lady. Only problem is that the Commodore had only written the first verse. Well push came to shove and he ran to the bathroom and dinished one of the most romantic love songs in music history. I guess you can say not everything that comes out of the bathroom is sh!1tty.
