  • This video pisses me off. I hgate the eldery and children.

  • It's just so peaceful.

  • I WAS ON THE TOILET ALL DAY BECAUSE OF THESE... even in the song at 0:30 the guy singing says, "i got nasty runs."

  • i wonder how many kids peed in the pool that day....

  • didnt a car manufacturer make a commercial with this Donovan's song too?

  • @slovakmath Ya I heard that somewhere too... weird.

  • @slovakmath

    Yes, but I forget what make/model it was. I LOVE this song, one of my favs!

  • Thumb's Up if Bryoq brought you here!

  • THATS WHAT FRUIT LOOPS ARE FOR DUHH!! 

  • this video scared the shit out of me when I first saw it. How dare they traumatize us like this, and tarnish the good songs of Donovan!

  • ok this commercial is just a little freaky

  • the mom is real the kid's bodies are graphics but their heads are real

  • Donovan, the cheerio man

  • I haven't seen this commercial in 4 years, but THIS SONG WILL NEVER LEAVE MY HEAD.

  • this is targic

  • I was eating a bowl of this when my brother sang the song behind my back. I barfed out the cereal...

  • Hey…I think I remember this!! Are those kids real or not??? It's been bothering me for years O___O''

  • @JillkunXishXAwesome

    ♥Their heads are real, bodies animated.♥ 

  • Lol I remember this HAPPYINESS RUNS

  • "Fruity Cheerios"? Isn't that basically Froot Loops repackaged?

  • lol

  • What tastes good IS good???

    I guess that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that General Mills doesn't have a clue about nutrition. (If anyone thought they did.)

  • frightening kids, great song ;)

  • When we were singing this song in music class, probably in 3rd or 4th grade, one of my classmates told us about this commercial.

  • love this commercial

  • love this commercial

  • wonder what kind of premium general mills had to pay out to get maharishi's favorite donovan riff to play their marketing jingle

  • lmao! if i watch this high it would be great .

  • gawd they aired this comercial in the middle of winter when i was having the im tyred of winter fever! XD

  • I Kinda found the combo of animation and real kid heads kinda.... off-putting. XD

  • There most certainly is something fruity about this commercial. And it's not the cheerios.

    Uncanny valley.

  • wow.

  • THIS WAS MY FAV COMMERCIAL!

  • ahaaahaah me and my friends totoaly laugh wenever we sing thsi on xbox live

  • this is scary

  • those tase NOTHING like froot loops

  • i wouldnt want to eat those....after those people have put their butts on them...

  • @Invaraeden The heads are real but the bodies are fake. The Mom looks entirely real though.

  • wow this is like i'm trippin on acid...shit dude this commercial is wack. 5 stars dude.

  • Isn't this the most BIZARRE shit ever??

  • i now know the true meaning of life

  • I could never tell if the kids in this commercial were real, or mildly-convincing CG.

    Either way, this scares the shit out of me.

  • dude u r so right i dont know if their computer or not

  • @RideTheCatfish Same! It used to scare me when it aired on tv!

  • y do all these ppl looks like ppl from my school?

  • man i used to hate this commercial lol

  • me and my sis always laugh at how deformed the kids look! look at their heads!!!

  • since this commercial has shown me and my friends sing this song whenever were happy and i dont think any of us knew y but now i do

  • k i screamed when i saw this commercial freaked the crap out of me, and is the person with short hair and red sweater a guy or a girl?

  • this song makes me laugh so much everytime i hear it, lmaooo

  • lovely song xD

  • lol this brings back 6th grade memories for me. ;)

    my mom said 'circular motion' and this commmercial from 2 years back pops in my head. XD

  • @shineyapple this memory popped into my head while remembering the summer time!

  • One of my ten favorite songs of all time, sappy, crappy commercial

  • this song was in minty and kimono's last apperence

  • lol weird

  • that is weird isnt it.

  • I wish the commercial fit in the next line:

    "You can have everything if you let yourself be"

  • scary.... real faces but from the neck down evrything is fake!!!!!!!!!! (hides in a closet cuz soo scared)

  • scary laughs at 0:12

  • HAPPINESS RUNS HAPPINESS RUUNNSSS

  • weak...this song should not be used for marketing purposes!

  • it sorta sounds like he says circAlar

  • haha i luv this song. happiness runs in a circular motion

  • Donovan is a God.

  • those kids are so animated! :S

  • aww, cute video!!

  • I love Donovan, but they murdered his song. Just like those Jonas Brothers murdered "Hello Goodbye"

  • yeah, they really did u.u

  • Thanks for agreeing. A lot of people don't. [Jonas Sisters fans mostly.]

  • np it's sick i watched the video just out of curiosity and literally retched. how could they do that to the beatles?! DX

  • My friend told me they took a picture of themselves walking across the street like in Abbey Road.

    They want to be like The Beatles, and Miley Montana wants to be like The Monkees.....and they fail miserably.

  • yeah, the fact that the jonas brothers think that they can actually pull of genius works like the beatles means that their being liked by so many preteen girls has gone to their heads XD

  • Haha, so true. So true....XP

  • that looks fun

  • My best friend loves this song! She is gonna be happy when I show her this! :]

  • i gotta tell you. i hated this commercial more than i hate alot of thigns man... HOLY SHIT

  • I LUV THT SONG! lol

  • I like the song, but Im sorry the animated kids scare me.

  • Happiness runs!

    that's a cute song:)

  • thats a weird song....

  • hahaha. :]

  • with touch of real fruit juice and 25% less sugar makes it taste like FRKING CARDBOARD!! ITS TRUE.

  • addcitcing anoying song:P

  • watch the cheerios song

  • honestly this is the best thing in the world, and whoever the handsome and sexy men who composited the heads are brilliant! good job!

  • thats cool i guess

  • Wooo. It's Ben!

  • in the words of bill hicks: 'if you do a commercial, you're off the artistic roll call FOREVER. Every word you say becomes suspect. Every word you say is like a turd falling from your mouth into my drink.'

  • exactly

  • Lol.

  • gayest thing i've ever seen

  • those things were so nasty lol

  • This commercial creeps the fuck out of me.

  • A nohomo this song and commercial touches the soul. It kind of makes me want to be a kid again. It so poorly made and who the heck came up with fruity cheerios!!?? but it makes want to just play tag in the fields of grass or slide down the slide in the sand area.

  • creepy

  • they are probly talkin bout

    cirlcular motion:butt

    fruity:gay

    answer: two gay guys doing each other

  • o that's so gay....

  • i kinda wanna edit this to become a horror song...you know...right before the thing comes out of the darkness and before the person can run away it stabs them in the head or somthing...yea...this would be a good song...or make it into screamo or somthing XD

  • Doesn't this video scare the shit out of you people? I am horrified. I mean this video has a giant mom glaring over this huge bowl with CGI animated kids with f***ed up heads on their askew looking bodies. Plus the song (which was sung by Donovan) does not help. "My penis runs in a circular motion" freaks me out with this commercial.

    Ohhhhh mother of God. I need a showr after watching this.

  • i like he song

  • oooooooooooooooooo

  • Theyre "Fruity"

    ANSWER:

    Because it's whiter than cool whip.

  • i think there was one. the one with the spoon i think.

  • LMAO YOU WERE RIGHT the black kid is there with a spoon

  • Hahahaha, the cheerios look like colorful blood cells springing from a box.

    The song is horrible, fruity cheerios probably give people the runs.

  • not their bodies but the objects in the ad. when people are making animated backgrounds for a commercial, they put a green background on an use some real life props to encourage proper movement

  • their bodies are animated. O_O
