  • Whats the song name

  • @barca10vegas That's what I'm wondering too. Shazam wont pick it up so I don't know if it is an actual song or now.

  • @barca10vegas Never mind, I found it.

    Road of My Own - From French McDonalds Ad

    Performanced by The Mile Ends

  • gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy­yyyyyyyyyyyyyy

  • Come as you are...a fantastic tagline about removing the boundaries of ignorance and hatred.

    Now, what if a woman turned up in a burka?

  • wat was he doing sending him to an all boys school then!!!

  • what does this have to do with McDonalds??

  • to bad your class is only boys why are the cute ones gay

  • The spot is titled "Come as you are," and shows a young gay man eating in a McDonald's with his father, who doesn't know his son is gay. The point was not to show someone who is troubled, especially a teenager. It can be difficult for some people, but they wouldn't have dared show someone who is struggling.

  • god loves everyone. even the straights

  • @FrostMan92 Maybe he would if god existed.

  • What's the name of the gay boy in this advertisement? He's handsome. :)

  • @oowen2784 He looks like Aaron Johnson, but I really don't know o:

  • Why i feel sad when i watch this..

  • heeee is so cuteee whats his name, the gay guy? :3

  • what song is playing???

  • what does homosexuality have to do with mcdonnalds??

    

  • This really was beautifully done. Too bad it's French. No offense, but we need that sort of thinking in the US.

  • Im french and heard of all the polemic about our gay commercials ( the one with the gay cat and the drink "orangina" as well). In France, nobody responds to that with as much hate and bigotry as do people on US TV... So sad...

    sorry for my english :)

  • @westside4you your english is quite good(:

  • @ladybug4565 thanks

  • @westside4you ,

    You're English is absolutely fine,& I agree with all you say!

  • Awwwwwww! Soo cute! I like this commercial so much!

  • So does his father know he's gay or not? A very important question

  • @trebeojoj No, I'm pretty sure he doesn't.

  • @CarnivorousCowMan Well, that's really sad.

  • @trebeojoj Yep.

  • @trebeojoj Obviously not!

  • @johanwinston if you don't let your family know who you are, you're really missing out. the father and son here don't really have a relationship with each other :/

  • @trebeojoj Absolutely brother!

  • What is this boy's name!?

  • @MrTerroist The entire human race cannot be gay, true. But if we go back a couple of thousand years, a small minority of gay people makes perfect sense.

    Around the time I'm talking, the population was simply concerned with staying alive and breading. Having a small part of the population who was not concerned with children and could focus on other things eg the acquisition of knowledge, makes perfect sense.

  • he is a good looking man

  • i love his face, his voice, his clothes, eveything about him except for the fact that he is GAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @AnimalsAddiction you americans are too much homophobic...

  • @minhounou We really are and it's sad and ridiculous. I have to say that's one of the few things I don't really like about us.

  • That made me cry :(

  • Just for some clarification: I know the word homophobia is generally applied to those who make hateful rants against gays, but homophobia means a literal fear of gays, like a fear of heights or clowns or some shit like that. The term we should be using is heterosexism, which is a system of oppression in which anything and everything heterosexual is favored over homosexual anything.

  • dis ad can never air in south asian countries...McD wud be doomed :-/

  • You know what truly saddens me? That in the 21st century adverts containing 'gay characters' still generate such discussion! We pay taxes,we contribute in every part of society,we always have! We are dentists,doctors,teachers,refu­se collectors,maintenance workers,clergy,parents! We love in exactly the same way as the 'str8s',with our hearts,souls & bodies! And we use fast food outlets,lol. There really ought to be a greater contribution in commercials from LGBT people.WE EXIST!

  • @popazz1 You know what saddens me? That companies uses shit like this to promote their companies. Why do you need to exploit someones color sexual preference and so on to look good? Just points out how there's an issue. Nothing casual about it.

  • @SEPAET ,

    I kind of see where you're coming from.But just as much as the LBGT community SHOULD be included in all aspects of life,then we ought not to 'complain' when we're represented in commercials,so long as it isn't a negative or derogatory representation.Companies are bound to 'use' or exploit colour,race,creed,sexuality & gender.It's what gets people to use their products.It's just marketing.And of course it's not casual.Exploitation sometimes works for the good.

  • @popazz1 If ya say so... I understand about marketing.. just saying. If its not casual then its obviously an issue. Doesn't need to be a 'thing' if its natural.

  • @electrobussterr Yeah and I hate a part of the americans because they're like you!

  • ahhh. . .when he looks up at :31. . .gah! my heart melts. he's so cute.

  • Amazing go Mcdonald's wish America could have such an inspirational Mcdonald's add

  • the true meaning of this commercial:

    "yea dad..i've been fucking my..LADY TEACHER" OOOOOOH!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is so sweet :)

  • I'm from America and I'm a full supporter of gay rights. It's the homophobes here who give us a bad name, and I'm sick of it. Not all of Americans are fat, homophobic red-necks. :/

  • this is seriously such a cute and lovely advert. the ones in the uk are shit. i find gay guys so adorable, and i like the whole 'come as you are' thing <33333333333

  • I can't believe this, I came out to my best friend at McDonald's when I was 14 showing her a picture of my date. Too funny.

  • ew

  • Why are gay guys always so darn cute?!

  • at first i hated gays coz gay ppl fuck in their asses. later i^ve seen lots of porn that men fuck women in the asses... it was not too nasty, it might be very cool indeed...(i had not yet anal sex...) now i thinking what is different when a man fucks in the mans ass instead of womans ass ???!!!! dick goes in the ass, no matter mens of womens ass!!!!!!!! NOW I DONT HATE GAYS! :-) ( sorry my english, not native..)

  • FML je me debrouille en francais mais je comprends pas ce qu'il dit en réalité

    Est-ce que quelqu'un peut-il me dire s'il vous plaît?

    (I can speak french alright, but I can't understand what he's actually saying, could somebody please translate for me?)

  • @TehMusicHo: Il parle français à la vitesse parisienne i.e. trop vite et incompréhensible au reste du monde qui peut parler français. Même les restauranteurs français (ils sont les parleurs maternelles) qui habitent dans ma ville Ho Chi Minh ne peuvent pas comprendre le français à cette vitesse.

    L'homme mélange aussi ses mots quand il parle.

    La chose bizarre est si cette pub était en québécois normale à leur vitesse standard, nous pourrions comprendre bien!

  • D++ deveria ter mais comercias do gênero!aprovo!!! =D

  • this boy looks cute. ~

  • Weird commercial. It doesn't fit my lifestyle for sure, but I guess they have to make concessions for everyone, lol. No biggie.

  • i love this ad!!!!!!!!!!!

    and the look that sexy boy gived to his father on 0:33 just says it all!!!!such deep and funny look

  • this commercial is eugenics in effect.

  • mcdonalds caters ads to gays. that is creepy because if you go into mcdonalds there is a big poster filled with fine print about how you should eat at your own risk there. also myspace sometimes has "free mcskillit" ads, and if you take the s out of McSkillit, you get McKillit.

  • I wish there was a LOVE button...

  • it was so sweet and cute, wish someday we will have some thing like this in China

  • @hensilaji

    Since traditional Buddhist thought in East Asia is being replaced with a Modern, Western/global, Relative Morality type of philosophy , I think your wish will come true.

  • @BOBSTERXXXX can you remember that day you chose to be straight?

  • @richardthewriter

    Does a rapist remember the hour he first felt a feeling to get sex through rape?

    Does a alcoholic remember his first drink?

  • does anyone know the name of the guy??

  • Wow so rong the should burn gays dai piss me of truss me I sit nxt 2 1 in high skool

  • @baba20092010 stuf thanks

  • Does anyone know the name of the song!?

  • @grovychic2 Mile ends - road of my own. Go on myspace

  • McDonnalds was already pretty gay I mean come on! Ronald isn't the most masculine character... This ad is great.

  • BE WHO YOU WANT TO BE, JUST DON'T TELL YOUR DAD CAUSE NO MORE HAPPY MEALS

  • Leave it to France to make McDonalds gay.

  • If I were gay at Mc Donalds I'd show my dad a read Big Mac.

  • Be careful gay people. or you will end up fat like the rest of us lol don't eat McDonolds. 

  • @KobyStormShow

    I haven't eaten at McDonald's anyway since my dad came home 15 years ago with a story about a load of cattle he was hauling that was due to be slaughtered for their beef.

    not going to go into details for those with weak stomachs but all I can say is yuk, yuk, YUK!

  • mcdonalds sucks anyways

  • Is one of the most beautiful ad I've ever seen. So sad, anyway. It's like... agh, not really my case, but it's alike. So, so beautiful... Almost made me cry.

  • @sasunarulab faggot

  • @mantisolivares WTF? I'm a girl, just so you know. A 15 aged kid. I strongly dislike ignorant homophobes. I'm so sorry that people like you exist.

  • @sasunarulab oh sorry, my bad. now go die far away from me, people like you ashame me

    why do you support them? they're so unnatural AND wrong >_<

    and maybe even soulless and infrahuman

  • @mantisolivares are you serious?? Soulless!? INFRAHUMAN!?? Please! Stop watching TV and grow up! Look, maybe you have seen some 'gay' people and didn't like them, but does that mean everyone has to be like that? Do you know why do I support them? What would you do if your son/daughter was gay? The only person in the world that cares and actually supports ME, is gay. And no, he's not the slut your imagining. He looks totally normal, another guy more. He's great, lovely and a totally good person.

  • @sasunarulab Thanks for your support! You are totally right. When I came out as gay no one but my closests friends saw it coming, because I don't fit the stereotype at all. People like mantisolivares nine times out of ten just don't know anyone gay personally, and it's easy to hate something you don't know and don't understand.

    And he is just spewing hate. It's one thing to have an anti-gay opinion. It's another to call them "soulless."

  • @houseofswans1 yes... I really was stunned out (I think that's correct? Sorry, english is not my language). I mean, soulless? There are soulless people in the world, yeah. Like murderers or rapers or whatev. But calling gay people soulless is like saying that people that like color blue are soulless. Oh my god, I repeated too many times that word, it's starting to lose sense. Anyway. You're very welcome, you seem a nice person :)

  • @houseofswans1 Come on,go back to the cleaning of the shit on your bed sheets!!

  • @JerryFWI When you hear "gay" your mind goes straight to gay sex? Maybe you should ask yourself why you're so inclined to imagine MY sex life, including what kind of sex and where I would do it.

  • Not judging anything nor saying right or wrong. It is appeared that McDonald's tried to appeal the gays. It seems to be in open-minded atmosphere; however, the father did not know the son is gay. He did not deny nor affirm. He is still in the closet. I do not want to comment on French society just by that. Too little info. I interpret the still-in-the-closet part as care and love of son to father, hoping one day they can communicate truly with love and acceptance. 

  • You guys this video DOES have a lot of meaning to it ! Do you ever see accepting homosexual commercials ? NO ! And all Micky D's is tryina do it be nice to humanity ! yeah it could be to make money and stuff but still its nice to see that our world is becoming a more diverse place. I love this commercial so much and i wish we could have this kind of stuff in the USA ! Hetro sexuality is getting old and homosexuality should be reognized ! PEACE , LOVE AND HAPPINESS

  • @poplockyanddropit Okay. I don't think McDonald's gives a fuck really.

    They want gay people to choose McDonald's over Burger King who don't have a gay add. That's it from a commercial perspective. Also, come as you are could mean so many different things and they could be siding with the father.

  • Mmm. . . I'm gay and I want a big mac, but to many calories GuRl FRIEND!!!

  • gay is not a prob to me. just sayin and btw im not gay . gays are ppl to and theres no changing that

  • There are things in life that are just wrong, and you don't need to be God to decide that.

    Like murder, slavery ,fraud, among many other things. We're not god but we still think they are wrong. And so is this.

  • @ahmedpharoah why do people always try bring god into this shit? you actully think gay people care bout that? i dont either cause its a loada bullshit. personally im not gay but one of my best mates is whos been hit and abused verbally for it.

     yes there are things wrong in this world.. like narrow minded cunts like you. i dont know about where u from but if you said homosexuality was wrong here youd be arrested. and to right is well the way some gay people are treated is terrible.

  • He's so cute

  • @lunchan128 I KNOW RIGHT!!??? :D

  • Tin c'est grave!

  • @Knarta C'est toi qu'est grave

  • now i get it! people who go to mcdonalds are all homos!

  • gay

  • does anybody know the name of the song? It sounds really nice.

  • @wfriend deadmiles end  or something like that the title is road of my own

  • and more: if your an homofobic, ur have the right to be one. but u dont have the right to offend homos. Youre free, everyone is free to do what they want, but respecting the others freedom. Like, a have plenty of gay friends, but yet i dont feel confortable when they make out. But the same for an straight couple. And if your a religion fanatic, look away, theres still time to save your mind. Your god,m understand you, no matter what.

  • poeple u talk about history. lets just remember that in classical greece and rome sex and love were things apart. Christianism brough them together. in that time, homossexual realations gay and lesbian were the comom thing. something fisical, yet allowed. and i heard about the history? Following blindly and sticking to religion make the world a delayed mind. Religion brings faith, but also blind people. People are free to think and feel.

  • This is an ad that runs in France. The French have much less puritanical issues around sex than in the U.S.. Also, their humor is very irony based. I would bet the most common reaction to this in France is laughter. Not about the kids sexuality but the context of the situation. Get a grip America, the whole world is not as uptight as you are and thinks you are very childish in your attitudes about sexuality.

  • @bobbymacbean well, as far as i know, most people feel rather sad for the guy than laughful.

    Most "Come As You Are" commercial show people not daring to be themselves.

  • :'D

  • This commercial is so cute and he is so handsome!!!!!!!! <3

  • The funny thing about this is I found out my dad already knew that I was gay, from a conversation we had when we were eating at a mcdonalds.

  • @Shipsahoy21 and he still loved you, right? see that's what a lot of gay kids are so scared of when deciding whether or not to come out. Will my parents still love me?

  • @richardthewriter Yeah... :-D I didn't have anything to worry about :-)

  • @Shipsahoy21 you may find true love but until you become a parent you will never really know what it is like to actually love someone. You live and breathe your child. Nothing compares to being a parent.

  • @richardthewriter Why make such a comment? If you find your life's meaning in being a parent, that's fine. However, don't turn it into a superiority contest by saying that parent-child love is automatically better/truer than the love between romantic partners. That's a subjective statement. It's not fact. It's merely *your* *opinion*, nothing more. What about people who can't have children, for whatever reason? You come off sounding haughty and judgmental when saying something like that.

  • @forestwraith when you become a parent you will know.

  • @richardthewriter i am not a parent (yet) but i agree!

  • @richardthewriter First of all, I think it's incredibly insensitive to provide a seemingly supportive reply to a young LGBT person only to follow it up with a patronizing, "gotcha" comment that then diminishes the worth of that person's relationship. LGBT people have to put up with having their relationships dismissed as unimportant or less than other's experiences on a regular basis.

  • @richardthewriter Second of all, there is no way you can generalize the experience of all human relationships such that you can make an absolute statement that asserts that the love between a parent and child is stronger and somehow more real than that between two people who are in love. There are billions of people on the planet and billions of relationships. There is no way you can logically make that kind of generalization.

  • @richardthewriter Finally, considering the number of deadbeat parents who move on to other relationships and refuse to pay adequate child support to their former families, I'd say that your assessment is anything but universal. Also, consider the fact that far too many LGBT teens are abandoned by their parents after they come out. The parent-child bond, as much as society might romanticize it, is anything but the paragon of virtuous, pure love that we make it out to be.

  • @Shipsahoy21 faggot

  • I love how everyone turns to the bible like themadturkey.The bible condemns homosexuality sure if you read the bible you would also know that it say's slavery is ok and woman should be at home taking care of the home. so by that logic if a woman works she is going to hell and we should have slaves? Anyone that gets all their information from one book is a sheep. If you search you will find out homosexuality is found in over 1500 species so it is a natural thing. Regradless of what some book says

  • @eddie6107 The bible does not condone slavery nor does it prevent women from working. As far as your comment about turning to the bible for guidance, well that's where true Christians are supposed to look for guidance( 2 Timothy 3:16 ). That's like complaining about an attorney looking into a law book when he's looking up information. Also the bible is not one book its a collection of books from Genesis to Revelations. Animals eat their own vomit and feces, would you consider that natural

  • @themadturkey You really dont know your own bible because it does condone slavery. You are acting like everything in the bible is a fact which it is not caue it would be taught in schools.Duh and you really need to look up the word natural anything that happens in nature is considered natural so yes animals eating their own vomit as you say is instinct and considered natural. you really should learn some facts insted of getting all your information from a book that NO ONE can prove factual

  • @eddie6107 slavery may have been temporally permitted it in the past, but even then God's servants had to follow strict guidelines on how slaves were treated. Slaves were not to be abused or mistreated. Slavery is not permitted in true Christianity. Youtube does not allow enough characters to type... But just because animals do something it doesn't mean its good for humans 2. Archeologist and Historians refer to the bible at times for historical facts. FORNICATION IS A SIN!

  • @themadturkey First you say the bible dosn't condone slavery than in may have blah blah you really need to look up the word fact cause its pretty clear you dont know the meaning.You forget humans are animals as well, just evolved nothing you can say or type can add any truth to your argument your quoting a book that 1 no one knows who wrote it 2 nothing inside has ever been proven true. religious followers are sheep they belive everything but proven facts over 4 billion stong so sad.

  • @eddie6107 Oh yes you are so correct. Historians are wrong, nothing from the bible is correct. All the historical places and people in the bible never existed. King David, Moses, Jesus the Romans, Greeks, Egyptians never existed. Lets go screw, kill and take what ever we want for the Bible is a joke. Let us Drink and be Merry for tomorrow we shall die. There is no hope for we evolved out of scum not love. LOVE what is that, that concept hasn't been proven... bunch of hormones that's all.

  • everybody deserves to be loved regardless of gender : ) btw for those who are curious the music is Road of My Own by Mile Ends.

  • @bartkwengka Thank you so much! I love you! I couldn't find the song title anywhere and it's such a good song. Also, I completely agree with you about everyone deserving to be loved regardless or...you get the point.

  • fuck it. i'm moving to France. =]

  • who is the model here??? can anyone tell me???

  • @kljoiy I really want to know too. He is gorgeous. (:

  • He's gorgeous! For that i love french boys -3

  • Music makes it perfect...

  • I love this commercial, it's the deepest Micky D's commercial I ever seen XD

    AWESOME

  • Approval. c:

  • Well McDonald's just lost me as a customer for life. I will never surrender to the gay madness.... yuck

  • @themadturkey I'm sure they wouldnt want an ignorant fuck like you anyway's you or sublimeade

  • @eddie6107 Ignorant? Its folks like yourself that are ignorant. I don't need companies like McDonald's trying to teach me whats the acceptable morality of the day. This is just sickening, everyday the media is shoving this gay garbage down our throats.

  • @themadturkey

    Well, it's apparent to me that SOMEBODY needs to teach you.

  • @Sakibou OH no, I already know that 2 dudes or 2 gals doing each other just isn't right. Its not even biologically correct as this combination in humans will never lead to procreation. OH well, if you like sticking things up your wazoo, do me a favor and keep that to yourself.

  • @themadturkey

    I'm a girl, honey bun.

    You speak as though every straight couple is having sex in order to procreate, and as though every gay couple is only together for the sex. Neither of these statements is correct.

    Love is love. What right have you to tell someone that they have no right to love who they wish? As a matter of fact, seeing as how you're not God, what right have you to tell anyone that anything they're doing is wrong?

  • @Sakibou I did not mean to suggest that sex is only for making babies as it is also pleasurable.

    You're right I'm not GOD, but if you do believe in GOD you know that he left the Bible as a guide on how we should live our lives. In the bible the homosexual act is a sin as is adultery and fornication. But if there is no GOD then not even murder is bad going by your logic.

  • @themadturkey tell me, why is there a need of god? because you'll go to heaven? i dont think religion is bad, but it makes you look at everything from a certain point of view, you believe in one truth, god's truth. Yes, murder is bad, but not because god said so, don't you have a mind of your own? This world is not perfect, but if it truly was created by god, why can't you accept it? You know, just believing doesn't do you any good, if you don't know how to truly love. And love has no boundaries

  • @huginug also let me tell you a story. My grandmother never believed in god, but she was always the first one to cry for a hurt person, always the first one to help him. Those people passed through her life and seemed like they were forgotten, but one day she died, and you know what? All those people came to her funeral, she was burried in a ton of white flowers, because she was a good person, but if we believe in god, then that means she has to go to hell, because shes not christian...

  • @huginug Please tell me, is my grandma really in hell, just because instead of god, she believed in people? and another thing, what if one day by some chance your life was saved by a gay person, what if he sacrificed his life for you? would he go to hell? because there is no place for hom in heaven? sorry, but i dont mean to bash on you, i go to a catholic school myself, but life has proven me that theres a stronger thing than religion, its human faith

  • @huginug i meant "him", sry for my bad english

  • @huginug A loving parent will give guidance to their children. God is the same way and left guidance via the bible. The bible condemns homosexuality. Does that mean that gays will not be resurrected? No, as some of the first Christians were gay until they learned the truth. God also loves sinners as he gave his son as a ransom for us. The question is do we love GOD enough to make the necessary changes in our life to please him.

  • @huginug That's why I hate the internet, because its impossible to get your point across. Your grandmother probably had a legitimate reason for not believing in GOD, I know I did when I was an atheist. My main problem with religion was that the majority cause more harm than good. Their misleading lies and the lack of faith religious leaders put in the bible. If a gay person were to save my life I would thank them but I would also do the same for them.

  • @themadturkey So if there was no God you would kill who you want when you want to? 

  • Comment removed

  • @themadturkey Just like the ignorant white people in the nineteen sixties had to be taught so must the new ignorant people today.

  • "Moi aussi, j'pensais à toi"; "Toi aussi, tu m'manques" (L)

    Adorable

  • Comment removed

  • Holy mother of god, that guy is beautiful.

  • "come as you are"

    Beautiful.

  • Europeans: chill. France still hasnt legalized gay marriage or adoption and there are instances of gay bashing there too. Maybe people find it cute to talk about it, but France is one of the most conservative countries in Western Europe.

  • Wow theres some nasty comments on here, most of them coming from Americans (this is why the whole of Europe thinks you're all backwards hillbillys btw). Im english and no one here is ever homophobic, its actually really frowned upon, and obviously thats brilliant! Too bad for Americans, i feel so sorry for gay americans, you guys must have it hard.

  • @spruntfemalespray: one other thing. NO, we won't keep it to ourselves. Not until biggoted, hatefilled, illiterate individuals, such as yourself, are made to understand that we live just as normal a life as straight individuals. You are a fool and that combined with your obvious lack of intelligence is a dangerous mixture. You are a sorry individual.

  • @spruntfemalespray: 2/2...practically all facets of life, especially those involving design and creativity, would be adversely effected. You have no idea as to how much we control and how it truly is a queer man's world. We are invariably the best dressed and best educated. You can't even compete. I'm sorry you are so very bitter. Oh well, life's a bitch and then, people like you die!

  • @spruntfemalespray: you need an education! I'm sorry you are so hateful and disturbed. I'm sorry you feel the need to deny gay people adoption rights whilst allowing women beaters and rapists to adopt. I'm sorry you don't understand. I'm sorry you'll never be anything more than you are right now! Think about this: without gay men, practically no fashion or design, practically no chefs or artists or actors.....cont, 1/2.

  • @spruntfemalespray fuck off hater!!!
