80's Pepsi Commercial (David Bowie and Tina Turner)

[jon204]

the pepsi can worth millions if you got one

[LordRoyalHighness]

What was that all about??? 8P

[tepestoj]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! Only if u people really got the concept!

[YorkistWhiteRose]

He makes for a cute mad scientist, and believe me, those are not words I ever expected to put together like that!

[okutaviof]

So this is where "wierd science" took the idea of a computer generated woman

[TheCampeon3]

eso era publicidad y no como la que hacen ahora que es engañosa

[JazzTheGoblinQueen]

Glass Spider o.O Let me pet you!

[ABIGAILXYMOX88]

GENIAL!!!! ♥_♥

[MrMAHBOI1]

Honestly, if i spilled coke on my stuff, and it created Tina Turner, i'd definitely regret it.

[AntiVenom36]

The guy who made this commercial probably got the idea from Weird Science. Creating a woman with computers and magazine photos of women.

[CincySkating]

Hey im selling Mugs and Old pepsi bottles. One bottle from 77 other from 82.. both opened though but they are cool to have.. I just don't need them anymore.

[enatitf]

Como se llama el tema?????

[lizzzgd]

@enatitf Se llama Modern Love :)

[ASarcasmProduction]

Nope... Tina and Bowie don't do it for me, still like Coke better.

Coke a drink for all generations , never mind just one 80's generation !

[superbro1938]

Oh man I am getting old cause I remember this commercial LOL

[Drroxxette]

...But Professor Bowie accidentally added an extra ingrediant to the concoction...Chemical Pepsi...and thus TINA TURNER was born!!!

[Educalifa]

Had it been 7up Cyndi Lauper would have come out...

[jinggo78]

Pepsi creates women. Good to know.

[CATZEistKRIEG]

oh that was So cute!

[acrossthefire217]

When people ask why I no longer drink coca-cola, I say because of David Bowie and Tina Turner.

[orion5175]

aw man that takes me back,

someone on dailymotion had a set with this commercial and a levi's 501 jeans and an old taco bell 7 layer burrito for 99 cents.

it was posted for the longest time then they took it off :-(

[Drroxxette]

Favorite commercial EVER!!!! 

[DiasDeDemonio]

jajaajajaja

[tkdblkbltin2009]

This was in 1987 or 1988 as it was around the Glass Spider Tour era! I remember taping this video, I was the biggest fan, lol I still am :-D

[laarbe]

I remember when this was out. Tina also had a solo Pepsi commercial. 

[TrelleStar]

i just adore this commercial. Tina and David. Such a perfect match.

[Dani890890890890]

Yummy Bowie!

[rodineisilveira]

This commercial also was aired here in Brazil.

[azyaninvasion]

Reminds me of ' Wierd Science ' . =)

[TraceurZeno]

@azyaninvasion same here!

[oldladyteenager]

... I will no longer buy coca-cola... O.O

[finalcut75]

So this is how Bowie payed his cocaine bills from thin white duke era

[StardustZiggy95]

David Bowie is so hot.

[LadyBowie30]

God Bowie is so HOT!

[HoneyNutTheAlleyCat]

i love it so creative!

[miamivicepastels83]

pepsi had some of the best commercials back in the day

[xandyx21]

was this before or after they slept together

[Gazza63]

@xandyx21 During

[MsKawaiiGirl]

I don't really like Pepsi, but this Pepsi commercial's AWESOME! :D

[drithius]

The power of the mullet.

[Sparkina]

I don't care that it was a marketing campaign, Bowie is Bowie and this commersh is GREAT! And what a novel way that was to expose new generations to the 24-karat enchantment that is The Gentleman.

[SwitchbladeKitty]

Hey Davey, where's Jagger and Elton?

[franzchick66]

pepsi rocks!

[deussolinvictus]

David Bowie trying to be Thomas Dolby while selling Pepsi with Tina Turner. Weird as hell.

[QueenLuver123]

if it makes me meet david then ill definatly drink it!!!

[repelghosts]

i remember this...thanks loads this was in Toronto in 84 but the tour was 83, as you all know anyway...

[cubehead978]

You have got to be kidding me, lol David Bowie rocks though, ^-^ i luv old commercials though, XD

[sjk72]

Do you think Bowie got paid for that spot, or does he just really love Pepsi?

[OnThe515]

Not a great point in the career of the genius that is David Bowie or the enduring icon that is Tina Turner.

[cris210471]

1984????

[DJOfRadioGallifrey]

I wish when I was working Bowie would pop outta my vending machine.

[CarolinePar]

@DJOfRadioGallifrey - if he had you might've been working too hard

[DJOfRadioGallifrey]

@CarolinePar ....I'd probably be inches from death. lol.

[CarolinePar]

@DJOfRadioGallifrey - what a way to go huh? thanks to Labyrinth he was already wearing a "Tina" style wig - quite well, I might add :)

[MammaMiafreak18]

what year was this?

[partygirl209]

i wonder if the taste has changed since then?!?!?

[mysteryblack2]

oh yes it has!

[partygirl209]

@mysteryblack, really?!? i wouldn't know - i was born in the 90s!!

[mysteryblack2]

i believe they have come out with a "Classic "

taste Pepsi open for purchase if you want to try out the new formula.

[VampyreOfTheOpera]

That is blasphemy... Modern Love is one of my favorite Bowie songs... Grrrrrrrrrrr...

[ConieMax]

has a very "weird science" feeling to it

[eter74]

pasame la formula por favor pora fabricar ese encantooooooooooooo

[Bryndles79]

'Puts my turds in my hand'?

[Dontevenknowher]

I did a Pepsi bottle once

[aquagrl63]

God, did EVERYONE famous do Pepsi commercials in the 80's?

[vigo894]

It looks like it. That's why they call us the Pepsi Generation.

[ceciliadiaz78]

Es simplemente EXCELENTE!!!!! Me acuerdo de esta publicidad cuando era MUY chica

[Bobzvintage]

that commercial is similar to the movie 'weird science'

pepsi must have got the idea from that (:

[littlepouser2]

I have that record modren love by David Bowie

[garethac81]

*sigh* So Bowie and Tina weren't rich enough already?

[fufufoofoo]

The fire sparks (from David Ruining the Machine) burned M.J.'s Hair

and I luv M.J. (G_R_H_S),

[BoundInChains]

I like the dance steps! lol

[ziggyXwhiteduke]

[PyramidHead2000]

WOW that was better than jakko's attempt! DAVID BOWIE FOREVER!!

[501075]

Goodness, I don't think I could stomach a pepsi after seeing that advertisment- curse you david bowie!

[BananaPanick]

Weirdest comercial I've ever seen for Pepsi.

[rodineisilveira]

This commercial also was carried here in Brazil.

[DuranDuranManFan]

Great imitation of the film Weird Science.

The 80's were the best generation ever!

[Kidonia]

I want a Pepsi now...thanks David Bowie!! (seriously, I'm being honest...I like Pepsi)

[jkcrystal2]

i love this video ....were did u get this ...if that is ok with u ?

pppppppplease thank u

[sfbaygirl]

Great commercial. Illustrates just how cool the 1980's were. Tina Turner looked great!

[BreakingGlass77]

the '80s weren't good to mr. bowie

[OedepusMusic]

but don't forget scary monsters, it's a masterpiece.

[DJOfRadioGallifrey]

I just wish there was a clearer version where I could see bowie's facial expressions clearly.

[sweetstuff64]

ive never seen that 1! is it just for the U.S.?

[Aueneye]

The one time Bowie sold out. But at least he looked cool doing it. In actual fact come to think of it I'm sure it's actually a subversive act on some level in some way. Yeah that's right, he didn't sell out at all, he was rebelling BY embracing capitalism. *Phew*, nearly had to admit even Bowie makes mistakes, but that ladies and gentlemen just isn't so.

[lesterclaypool1]

This is a perfect example of Bowie based moderation: Do a shit load of coke but shill for Pepsi. See how it all evens out? That's why I love Bowie.

[shairnah]

I read in The Complete David Bowie by Nicholas Pegg that this commercial were done only for raising money so that he could go on tour. (If I remember it right)

[Aueneye]

Well he's nothing if not resourceful. To be honest he can do anything at this stage and I'd defend him. He's made so much good, nay, great, music that the occasional wobble in judgment is entirely forgivable, besides it was the 80's, money making was the order of the day. Ol chameleon Dave was just seizing the zeitgeist as per usual.

[shairnah]

I agree with you. He's the best!

[Alfrunk]

Ahhh huge corporations. They always do the right thing!!

[5tonyvvvv]

no shit ..but friend dan and phil the fuckin money man asshole bastad..80s forever

[ninaisthekoolest]

pepsi always has the best commercials, but i prefer coca-cola. but this is great!

[HUGHJ99]

fantastic advert :)

[MorochaArgentina38]

No puedo creer que estoy volviendo a ver este comercial que me encantaba! Más allá de la crítica que le hacen muchos, me parece un logro fantástico!

[Albacoreradio]

Pepsi always have the best commercials!

[lustewart77]

como me acuerdo de esta propaganda!!!!! era una nena pero estaba super enamorada de ese bowie circa let's dance y deslumbrada con la belleza de tina turner .... estos recuerdos no se borran ....

[tweezersareyay]

Haha! That was freakin' great. David spills a Pepsi on the thingermabob and out comes Tina! Spice-ay. I have to go watch Weird Science now.

[cuteblondecrystal]

That was an AWESOME commercial!

[bowiefan1993]

thanks for posting! David is awesome and I love Pepsi!

[eliseandnicky]

if i didn't hate Pepsi, it would be so cool!! David Bowie would make the worlds BEST EVER mad scientist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

[dodremon]

Muito manero esse comercial.David Bowie e Tina Turner são dois artistas muito talentosos!!!!!!!

[CADAVERHUSK]

doubt you could find people in their 40's advertising a soft drink to kids these days! you young whipper snappers would just laugh

[Treknologist]

I remember this from 1987 and not knowing who was in it and what the song was.

[Babe5677]

That is so so 10 per cent super cool. Tina Turner and David rocks. I love Tina and David forever and I always will. I want this and we've gotthe taste what Tina Turner id in other pepsi ad I want them both on CD and my phone. In fact want every single song by Tina Turner on my phone and I pod.

[BowieOutsideAudio]

huh..so THATS how Bowie got his late-80s mullet...

[Loves80girl]

Awesome!!!! 5 stars!!!

[bowieaewsome1029]

cool video vaer funny lol

[HugoH2008]

idioticscheme666: The song is "Modern Love" by David Bowie.

[Peruanas0]

Pepsi and coca cola has so much money, that makes you believe that what drank is good for you , when it is quite the opposite. (TM)

[JuJuTrumpet2]

What kind of shoes is Bowie wearing? I like em' lol

[grahamgregson]

fuck coca cola , GIMME THE PEPSI NOW :) IM CONVERTED

[z17frozentoast]

I hear you, bro... ;P

[JonnyInfinite]

They 'did' it together...

[hollygolightly101]

I will never drink another Coke for as long as I live!!! This is marketing at its BEST!!!!

[archerdadyke]

oh gosh this was my favoritecommercial as a kid. I love youtube they bring such good things back.

[sixtypixies]

Corny as hell. I LOVE it! The '80s were so freaking rad.

[kayleighNashley]

Did they kiss at the end or im a just blind ?

[sixtypixies]

I think they kissed on the cheek.

[kayleighNashley]

Ok thanks

[Pam7800Bongiovi]

Where can I get the version of "modern Love" sang by Tina Turner and Bowie?

[TheBlueFlamingo]

Fabulous. Another one of those things I remember fondly from my youth but thought I'd never see again. Bowie and Tina Turner... what an amazing combination!

[calabacin90]

What year exactly was this made?

I feel a little disappointed that he used his music to sell something, but I guess that was the capitalist-driven 80s.

[lcbrec]

i think the song works better as a duet - too bad they didn't record it...

[chicagosgirl0727]

It could be real for us and to have a great time with her! LOL!

[AdamThree]

They should have more commercials like this.

[kellyilla]

Awesome 80s commercial!

[axelsteel05]

...Wow... The 80's were AWESOME!

[chicksheldon]

and more cocaine!

[Subiromba]

Jesus, I remember that ... WTF you did with your own music, Mr. Bowie.

[davidbowielovr]

not cool

[chicksheldon]

hey he did it, i dont see a gun to his head

[MCRfan88]

FUNNY STUFF

[binkerbutter]

that was great!

[sussie5]

wicked luv this video rock on tina luv u girl foxy lady davis looks so cool like this song its wicked

[davidsstar]

um, I really don't know what to think about this. I mean, I love both Tina and David a lot, but....what were they thinking when they did this commercial? Not a whole lot I guess. The song shoud have been left in the original format too. You can't mess with David's songs dude. It's just not right at all.

[idioticscheme666]

What song is this?? I like this one.
