[rrichiee1990]

lol awesome ad

[TheYTChronicles]

If they played that in a club, I would rave it.

[spartavelvet317]

im drinking it right now! tastes a bit like a smothie

[charkyem]

1) they don't even sell um bongo outside the UK

2) you can still buy it. We get it regularly from Morrisons.

[stozzler]

I have recently returned from working in The Congo, and at no time did I witness anyone drinking Um Bongo,

[stozzler]

It was a ' tongue in cheek comment ', copied from a readers letter to Viz magazine, Geordie humour !

[BRAKESUK80]

u were in the wrong part of The Congo ;)

[Badassorion]

@stozzler ahahahahahaha

[EEWW2006]

@stozzler Well what were they supposed to say "Um Bongo Um Bongo, they drink it in France"?

[Stozzler1]

@EEWW2006 It was supposed to be ' tongue in cheek '. Actually they would have probably renamed the drink ' last chance ' ! geddit ?

[jonny2vests]

@stozzler They just make it there then sell it to us. They need the cash.

[TehYodeTube]

Its so funny lol

[ROCKSTERMARIO]

THIS WAS MY FAVORITE DRINK WHEN I WAS 5

[TehYodeTube]

[spotthatruth1]

[xxxxxemocorexxxxx]

i seen this the other night while stoned thought i dreamt this  thank fuck i didnt lol

[biginthegame1]

this song goes thru my head everytime i see a black person

[sibionic]

Niiiiiice. Now that song will go through my head every time I read the comments of a thick racist ****

[Yosemitesamonspeed]

Faul McCuntney stole a carton of this in 1986. Who the fuck does he think he is eh? What a prick, and a crinkly one at that. LOL

[LollieSmith]

Yes Faul stole this after a long recording session. He wanted to get the taste of shit out of his mouth

[Yosemitesamonspeed]

ROFL! The stingy fuck still should have paid for it though, the cunt.

[sibionic]

what are you talking about?

[LollieSmith]

Paul McCartney stole a carton of Um Bongo in the 80s

[sibionic]

what's your evidence for this?

[sibionic]

?? He did? This seems an improbable factoid. Where was he when he 'stole' it? And when? And - most of all - why?? I mean, they may very well drink it in the Congo but not neccessarily on the isle of Kintyre...

[fannystar]

i love dat drink

[itfcbc]

Did any of you see this on Xtra Factor?

[x1star1x]

YES! loool too funny thats why im here

[HabCpStudios]

That's why i'm watching this too :)

[ougiii]

[thewerrett]

Bahhaha! Yeah thats why im watching it too, weve been singing it in the pub all weekend! :D

[xxxxxemocorexxxxx]

lol i did

[benandis]

yes lol i saw it on Xtra factor thats why im watching it lol

[prectec]

im from the congo and weve never heard of it? lying bandstands

[EmilyLass]

Aww i remember that ad, i remember goiin to school singin it haha

[kitkatrox4eva]

ACTUALLY.....it's more gramatically correct to say 'A' before H because you only really use 'An' before a vowel.

E.G. an elephant

sozzy had 2 point it out!!!

xxxx

[MaddogMagoo82]

If you want to be arsey about it "an" comes before a vowel sound..

An apple...

An hour...

An honest person...

In this case the person on vocals employs AN African accent and as a result pronounces Hippo as 'ippo which requires the AN. There you have it. FACT.

:)

[gonegonego]

You also put it in front of an H

Yes

english lesson for you there

An historian for example.

[biginthegame1]

hahahaha

[ilikevil]

im from the kongo they dont drink it o.o

[MrDemolitionMan]

Why does the writing say AN hippo? It's gramatically incorrect and it's not what they sing anyway.

[GTAGuru999]

Actually, it's more gramatically correct to say 'An' rather than 'A' before an H.

[SonnyOne]

Add to Gin with ice and enjoy.

Delicious!

[BlackberryMay]

Class :)

[Statue0f]

My nomme de la pomme is Libby!

[stupidjunk878]

So racist!

[ST0MP0]

The old bastard once stole a pack of top trumps from a Jumble sale Yosemitesamonspeed, this is the type of bulb end we are dealin with here.

[Yosemitesamonspeed]

What a fuckin cunt he is, stompo, the thieving bastard needs his hands cut off so he cant steal anymore, but I bet that still wouldnt stop him, the fucking crinkly bastard, he would probably use that fuckin gob of his to steal shit, and then in a muffled voice, try to say hes "mccuntney, sir mccuntney, I can do as I bloody well please"

[Yosemitesamonspeed]

I told you before....he took acrate of whiskas cat food, but he didnt eat that, oh no, he fed it to bono and sting, the cunt.

[Yosemitesamonspeed]

Sir Faul McCuntney stole a carton of this folks, what a cunt he is LOL

[SirRustyWhiskers]

I Liked This The First Time When Is Was Called Hawaiian Punch!!!

Poor Paul Took A Case And Gave It Away

Take Him To Jail And Make Him Pay For

Um Bongi!!

[Yosemitesamonspeed]

What a thieving bastard he is! ?He should pay for his crimes, just like any other person. But he just says shit like 'I'm paul mccartney...SIR paul mccartney, I can do as I bloody well please'

What a cunt he is LOL

[SirRustyWhiskers]

Yes A Luckey Cunt! LOL@@@

[Yosemitesamonspeed]

[rwillmsen]

Michael...it's so hard to believ he's gone...and to think people dont evenm know that he was behind this...:-(

[papatango1973]

I think it's more 80s than 90s. I can definitely remember reciting this in the school playground back in 84!

[Nogli]

It ran for a long time. I did exactly the same thing in 94!

[slimbob12]

What the hell is with the psychotically hilarious addition of the company who made it?

[Bloodlyshiva]

I dunno. I don't rmember that part being in it(Orf the big hand grabbing it) when I was a child. Maybe they took it out in some editions?

[desilicious09]

I used to love this advert and get this juice everytime we went shopping :)

[wrawbycrew]

[internetprotected123]

[Alan7997]

[APRICOTSMOOTHIE]

Me and my mum can! :D

[Gulftastic]

Do you think they came up with the name, or the song first?

[AlicetheCamel7]

umbongo...

[AlicetheCamel7]

they stopped doing this advert when it became apparent that the congo had become a massive hellhole...

still, I miss it :)

[melvert33]

Yeah, you're right, genocide doesn't sell

[MrDemolitionMan]

King Leopold had a great vision, he established the Congo Free State so that he could bring the great taste of 'Um Bongo' to the world.

[mistaben2k]

They drink Um Bongo in the Congo only if they still got hands to do so.The repressive African state chops peoples hands off to this day.

[Applemask]

We're living it up in the jungle drinkin' Um Bongo. We're living in a highrise mud hut drinkin' Um Bongo. The lions and the tigers and the hippos too, alligator rocks with a Zulu drinkin' Um Bongo.

Plenty of anger in Rwanda drinkin' Um Bongo, while the little kids are playing with the landmines, drinkin' Um Bongo. The aid that you paid for never got through, machete in the hand of a Hutu drinkin' Um Bongo.

[scribblywibbly1]

I went way way down to the middle of the Congo, and i met a man there and asked him about the drink UmBongo, he said UmBongo? i said yeh the drink they all prefer in the congo!!!!

HE'S NEVER HEARD OF IT....years of fucking lies :(

[blackninja133]

I perfer the sunny funny one they call Um Bongo!

[crystalwolfberri]

XD that was a new one! I'd love to have just seen that randomly on tv...
