  • No way this is from 2001. the Motorola v150 wasn't even out then. As a matter of fact the v150 came out in summer 2003. so this advert probably first went out late 2003 or early 2004. They do look hell of a lot older though. I remember the advert being mad annoying ! How was I to know I was looking at two comic geniuses though !?

  • Flights of the Conchords - hell yes! Phones 4 u - hell no!

  • "Do you think we're selling out by doing a jingle?" "No way man. Some of the best songs are jingles!" So very true.

  • yeah 2004 don't know where 2001 one come from lol, sources on wiki

  • Dudes. And dudettes. This is the exact same song from the Simpsons episode that aired last year, with different words.

    Not that that's a bad thing. But seriously, check out the 'itty bitty pretty girl' song from The Simpsons and this song... the newer version is the improved one.

  • This commercial was made in 2004

  • One-ups the hell out of Femident.

  • im talking to my friends in the alien zoo, aningaminga ninga minga ninga manoo

  • You wouldn't swear at us murray.

  • go F**k yourself @TheKirk15 !!!!!!!

    sorry, but it had to be said XD

  • Didn't realise this was them!

  • It was this advert that made me discover FotC 3 years ago. I was saying to my housemate - do you remember that ace advert for phones4U? We were talking about how funny it was for ages and then she said, have you seen any of their other stuff....

    The rest is history! =D

  • Oh my god I remember this advert vividly!

    I never knew it was the Conchords (although I did'nt realy know who they were at that point).

    Just shows how good they are because that jingle stuck in my head, I feel the urge to buy that phone and also some femident toothpaste...

  • Holy crap that was them?! I have learned something today.

  • So I was into Flight of the Conchords and didn't even know it. Winner. xD

    YJ

  • @jaguarfan what are the chords for this?

  • I wonder if this was the real life equivalent of femident toothpaste?

  • I used to find this annoying but just because it's the Conchords I can let it slide :)

  • phones 4 you fotc rocks!

  • This advert was made in what, 2001? So basically, I would have been about 10 or 11 when I was crazy obsessed with this song and irritated my friends and family by singing it constantly. Now I'm nearly 19, and I still irritate my friends and family by singing Conchords songs constantly. That's awesome :D

  • I can't believe this, I've worked at P4u for 5 years and love flight of the conchords. I never realised it was them in this advert!!

  • I only just found out that this was The Conchords. I can't believe it!

  • Jemaine looks like Benicio Del Toro when he's not wearing glasses!

  • As a kiwi who worked at carphone warehouse when this ad was around, I hated it for all the chavs who'd come in and sing it, thinking they were funny. Thankfully FoTC are doing bigger and better things now :)
