Actually although i do stick by the fact John Lewis adverts used to be a lot better...having ammis explanation of it and then I watched it again its not as bad as I thought. But it still feels pretty depressing. Maybe its a grower?

Also is anyone with me on the fact that it feels odd to be seeing Christmas adverts on tv. How is it November?? This year flew by. It honestly feels like September still. How is im a celebrity on next sunday? Oh actually I will post their advert cos its pretty good

But yeah it feels too early. I think they should start from mid November rather than the start

Just watched the John Lewis ad. They really do think they're amazing. Predictable and over-schmaltzy for me. Never heard the track before and it wouldn't bother me if I never heard it again.

I’m sure it’s a bad remix of a 90s dance track.

I quite liked this one. I think this guy does adverts like this every year and needs recognition for it

Its the classic 90s dance track by Alison Limerick. Any late 80s and early 90s raver sees it as a stone cold classic

Advert has gone down a storm so far

The beginning of the ad sounds like the original song....then it morphs into the slower version

Agree with LT though, it was a huge tune back in the day
