Default what is the best advert on TV ?
direct line insurance advert 22.5.12

i am sure you all like,
it is a breath of fresh air,
when ever i see it,
i chuckle with out a care.
they both make this duo,
and differences do attract,
and the way he looks at her,
you no he wants to take out a "contract".
thank you "Direct line",
this is a great laugh i need,
i suggest a pay rise,
because your advert is way out in the lead.
keep up the humour,
unfortunately my poem is not funny,
but i am going to message board promote,
and "press" send it for a bit of sunny.
it is brill,
dose my poem need "Direct Line Insurance",
if the reader gets to the end,
they are well fit and safe and have endurance.

( if you can not understand my poem - i am saying i love the directline insurance advert - they crack me up - her with her frizzy hair and the guy with his crazy eyes - so funny. whats your fave advert on tv ?)

I love the song though and the group, you will need to write the words down for the next time it's on.

I don't think I will go that far. Do you remember TV Stars at all by The Skids? I think it was the B-Side of Into The Valley?

I haven't any singles of the Skids, but I have some albums, TV Stars I have on the, 'The Saints are Coming, The best of the Skids' CD, with most of their other hits on it.

Love their music and also Big Country with Stuart Adamson after them, Stuart Adamson in my view was a great songwriter/musician,sad he died so young.

It is good though to hear Into the Valley on an advert with no other talking on the advert too.
