This time I was certain the son had died or the dad had. This was incredibly bleak and dark. Bit a nice Christmas advert at all I dont really get it. So the song takes him back to a time when he was happy and raving and then he had kids? Is that the message??

Yeah same the coca cola one was always the one that would truly start the Christmas period. But I swear for at least four years they kept using the same one so it stopped being special and it was always one of the last company's to air its Christmas advert, like a few days before, but I love this years its the best Christmas advert so far from what ive seen

Something about not the teen not being able to communicate with his Dad...guff

Its terrible and as a marketing tool is terrible, remember when you could buy a soft toy to go along with the advert, they used to sell out as well, cant see sales being particularly brisk after watching this, do they even sell Vinyl

…I think for me…(…the message…)…was that the nostalgia of the song also took the dad back to his son being born and the intense love that a parent has for their child…and maybe now going through a more difficult relationship time that many parents do with their children when their children are pushing into adulthood and independence etc…?…and not always showing that love so openly anymore but that moment did and that the son had put so much thought into the gift…for me, it’s not about a life of not having kids/it’s about the love that a child brings to a life…

[Ammi]

…probably overthink things but, yeah I didn’t mind it…not the best/not the worst but quite touching…

I was literally just thinking that, do they sell music? Also there used to be great tracks that went along with the adverts that would make it into the charts, remember the Lily Allen one? This track isnt going to get into the charts despite it being a pretty great dance track but the part where it goes acoustic sounds awful

[Time to Sleigh]

Also im surprised the lidl advert got to use wouldn't it be nice as their backing track as thats become connected with the sky mobile adverts. So i wonder what they think about it

[The Human Santapede]

The Christmas ads this year are weak so far (bar the coca cola one).
