That "Bus" Song
 
I know this is a slightly "strange" topic for the boards, but I'm just hoping the new "United Way" ditty this year is not full of dirty birds with Mike Smith trying to smile, looking like he just ate something that didn't agree with him. (Now that was scary and nauseating at the same time)!

JoanieNTX 08-09-2011 10:31 AM

C'mon....y'all confess....you know you hated watching that during commercial breaks all the time! ;)

jnormand 08-09-2011 10:34 AM

Yep. No prob admitting that. I hated it.

watch who's comin at you
why? who's got the power?
watch whos comin at you
if you might allow her
watch who's comin at you
why? who's comin through?
one, a bit right then we got two
watch who's comin at you
but don't fuss
watch who's gonna get you back on the bus
watch you change your lightbulb
then you take a shower
watch who's comin at you
why? who's got the power?

What the hell is that song about anyway?

homerj07 08-09-2011 11:07 AM

Yeah - he looked like he just ate one of the kids!! I hate it too!

JoanieNTX 08-09-2011 12:05 PM

It was promoting kids and exercise or something like that....my jury is still out on WHY, the year after WE won the Superbowl, they were using the birds as their promo team for this campaign??? Sometimes I just don't get it!!! Who wants to see Matt Ryan, Mike Smith, and a bunch of dirty birds stinking up the tv every commercial break? Enough to make you run for a bathroom break every single time!!! IMO, they need to class it up!!! ;)

RockyMountainSaint 08-09-2011 12:13 PM

It still runs non-stop on the NFL Network :puke:

For two months they ran their top 5 receptions of the year with the Lance Moore tip TD against the Ravens at #4.

That was cool, but I knew what was coming next.
Now they are running the top 5 rushes of the year, all day.
Wanna guess what came in at #1?
Yep. Lynch TD in the wild card game :burn:

Euphoria 08-09-2011 12:26 PM

We running out of Saints things to talk about?

73Saint 08-09-2011 12:37 PM

Play 60 Commercials.

And I still wonder why Drew's Play 60 commercial lasted all of 6 months, but the Falcons one keeps on going. And Going. And Going....

Ashley 08-09-2011 12:59 PM

Anything to do with that team I hate.

JoanieNTX 08-09-2011 01:01 PM

All I have to say (besides "take that stupid commercial off") is "here we come to get you!" No holes barred!!! ;)

Well Said!Falcon hate is alive and well.I wouldn't have it any other way!!!




Joanie doesn't look like she has a mean bone in her body,but I'd bet she'd destroy something just to be able to watch a Saints game!:bng:

I think it was because of the song, or whatever they call it, included the line "falcons... falcons.... falcons, falcons, blood stripe falcons!" in it.

73Saint 08-09-2011 01:25 PM

There is one thing that makes me laugh hysterically at this commercial: Art Blanks head shaking like a bobble head, along with that cheesy-ass mustache. For some reason or another, as much as I hate the commercial, I find myself stopping to look just to see that part.

I'm weird I guess.

poydras 08-09-2011 01:40 PM

.... Besides, it gave us something to mess with after we beat them toward the end of the season on Monday Night Football. I love the version that has the bus going off a cliff and crashing.

Seer1 08-09-2011 01:56 PM

That commercial is why some wise soul invented the mute button, bathroom breaks and beer sitting in the refrigerator in another room needing to be fetched.

Still haven't heard the song....

Nice. (In an evil and sadistic way)

:doh:

JoanieNTX 08-09-2011 08:24 PM

Bobble head! Love it! Perfect!

neugey 08-09-2011 09:02 PM

Maybe some less annoying music would've helped ...


SoulStar 08-09-2011 10:33 PM

Kinda strange I have only seen the Falcons version of that twice, I see the one where the Packers are getting on the bus after a blow out playoff win and they are playing that song, but not the other one!

RockyMountainSaint 08-09-2011 10:50 PM

Mark, that was freakin hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QBREES9 08-09-2011 11:00 PM

Hated it still hate it. I wish I never had to see again.

Got to admit, you had me going for a sec. I was thinking what the hell was wrong with you until.......... ah! nothing but smiles

QBREES9 08-09-2011 11:31 PM

????? Really I still hate it LOL

Saintsfan4ever 08-10-2011 01:12 AM

I was curious about this song when the Play 60 commercial first came out, so I did a little youtube research/surfing and found some "live" performances of this band "The GO! Team". They are absolutely horrible live. Their music sounds like somebody kicked a baby grand and a trap set down flight of stairs.
When we STOMP the ever-livin-pajeezahs out of the Falcons on ESPN on MNF Dec. 26, they should play this song in the Dome.

skymike 08-10-2011 06:11 AM

ah, the Play 60 commercial.
good intentions (get todays, fat, lazy, useless kids to get off their butts)
bad execution (used the Falcons)

jeanpierre 08-10-2011 06:21 AM

What we learn from watching this video:

First, subject choice is important (Falcons?!?)

Second, audible music that doesn't sound like a Voodoo Ritual

Third, Arthur Blank has no rhythm

Saintswrath 08-10-2011 06:56 AM

You guys forget that Saints were the first one's to do the Bus Play it 60 Commercials (THE SAME YEAR WE WENT TO THE SUPERBOWL) I have a feeling Faican'ts are doing it now to see if it would bring them good mojo like they think it brought the Saints..
Their QB didn't get to play with the President on the front lawn though lmao!

RockyMountainSaint 08-10-2011 08:12 AM


Another version with MUCH better music and ending!

I found the tune to be quite catchy, and I enjoyed watching the Falcons look like idiots, so I had no problem with it.
