Rocket tries to add inspirational sing-along to a 60-second spot backed by "Country Roads, Take Me Home."

Did you think it worked?

At first I thought it was an ad from the West Virginia Tourist Bureau. Do they even have a tourist bureau?

dommygonzalez.bsky.social•13 days ago

Agreed. It has the sincerity of a crowd full of the 1%…. Oh wait…

avrill.bsky.social•13 days ago

I thought it was amazing!

andros-haldane.bsky.social•13 days ago

why?

avrill.bsky.social•13 days ago

Really? Starts with a pregnant woman touching her belly, talks about how everyone deserves a shot at the American dream, all the visuals… I had tears! What am I missing? Such heartwarming moments.

andros-haldane.bsky.social•13 days ago

none of that seems amazing to me, sorry. genuinely don't get why you'd be in tears.

avrill.bsky.social•13 days ago

Key words in your response: “to me”. Human emotions are a funny thing… For your sake, I hope you get that what one person relates to and connects with - could be vastly different than another’s.

andros-haldane.bsky.social•13 days ago

lol yes, I get that. it's pretty much what I do for a living.

and that's why I asked you what you found amazing about that commercial. onvs really sparked your emotions, and I still don't understand what it was, specifically, that gave you the feels

Very, very no

Thought it was an ad for West Virginia...

That would have made more sense

Same. Rolled my eyes at the end. Said “How cute” when they cut to live. So many bad and tone deaf ads this year. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Country roads, take me home.
To the place, I can't afford!

They were trying to force replicate this very charming and organic moment that happened a couple of years ago, at a game in Munich. It definitely missed the mark.
