1990's 1992 Taco Bell Johnny Cash Commercial

[dadoody]

I remember seeing this commercial as a kid, but I didn't know who Johnny Cash was at the time and didn't think anything of the commercial other than wanting a bunch of tacos and a mexican pizza.

[Muchtutty]

cutest commercial eever.

[whiteboy5480]

taco bell used to make food that looked like taco bueno.. weird

[madvillain]

"Here's another fucking man in black, doing his thing, with nothing but dollar signs in his damn eyes." Kenny Fucking Powers

[Jag117]

@madvillain maybe Johnny Cash just really fucking liked tacos for under a dollar, ok?

[SaganAppreciationSoc]

I thought he was supposed to be a vegetarian.

[FriedEggsWithChips]

@SaganAppreciationSoc Who said that?!

[SaganAppreciationSoc]

@FriedEggsWithChips

I'd seen him listed as a vegetarian celebrity. But people fall off the wagon I guess.

[HelloFade2]

Taco Bell had way better commericals in the 80s and 90s then they do now. I really don't care for their "Think Outside the Bun" ad campain. They're commericals stopped being good ever since they got rid of (or lost, whatever) the Chiuaua

[FriedEggsWithChips]

@HelloFade2 Get a life. Now.

[HelloFade2]

@FriedEggsWithChips yeah because writing a comment that takes less than a minute, really takes a lot of time out of my life which you know absolutely nothing about.

[thescaryman]

just a lil cash, now I see what you did there :D

[JohnFordDanceTroupe]

This was before he teamed up with Rick Rubin.

[TheSteakJustice]

oh i get it, save a little cash

and there's a small johnny cash there

[brandonjamesholmes]

lmao 

[cappsoutlaw]

way to save time just serve booze at taco bell

[Delinquints]

for fuck sakes. Now I have to eat at taco bell every day for the rest of my life!

[wheels85]

at 0:07 it looks like diarrhea in a tortilla.

[redandblackyrac]

does anyone know what key this in/what the chords are?

[louib716]

shit used to cost 59 cents?! that blows my mind.

[ZoolTool]

@louib716 This was 18 years ago...59 cents then is the equivalent of 92 cents today.

[louib716]

@ZoolTool yeah ik, its still pretty amazing how inflation works tho.

[LuisFer306]

voy a taco bell, solo xq Jonny lo dijo, saludos desde Guate

[mikehattan]

Cash Whore!

[Gmancrap]

So fucking bad ass!

[MIKESOWELL]

LOL I remember this!!! Going to favorites!

[oGnocas]

He should have sang ring of fire on the toilet.

[SecularZone]

I can't believe Johnny Cash made this commercial. I don't remember it.

[artbyharry2]

Taco Bell has rescued my stomach many times. I recommend the 7 layer Burrito with out sour cream. It is good for your heart.

[XaulZen]

@artbyharry2 I reccommend your sister for anal and your mom for head! :) Keep your shitty 7-layer burrito! LOL!

[17crazyeyes]

It didn't even rhyme.

[bokonon14]

Disgrace.

[TheLizardKing1967]

Eatting this shit is probably what took him out in 2003.

[FriedEggsWithChips]

@TheLizardKing1967 Or drugs. Whichever.

[WimLopr]

A little part of my respect for Johnny Cash has vanished. What the hell man, what the hell..

[laledo650]

great, im glad to know johnnny cash supported my favorite fast food joint

[pantera716slayer]

aww, come on johnny...

[Aeschylus]

Yum!

[nearvana44]

The best,

[peteyglum]

Coolest Video ever haha. 39 cents?

[Diverteller]

He's so tiny!

[cowmaster5000]

lolz

[DrLove0378]

I hurt myself today... by eating at Taco Hell.  Everyone I know, gets the trots, in the end...

[HaakonAnderson]

Did put that in the movie lol

[promagnum]

bleh one thing Cash shouldn've have done. Endorse Taco Hell?

[gianvm]

yowza

[justinjustincool17]

yowzaaa!!!

[Creepybabies]

HOLY CRAP!

[georgehwbush]

So, how much did you get for your soul, Mr. Cash?

[nerdygrl64]

Omg this is so funny that this is on Youtube, we still have this commercial on a tape from when we recorded Tim Burton's Batman!!

[Creepybabies]

Batman has no legs.

[xXfainarufantajiXx]

59 cents!?!??!

[Backwoodsjess]

Oh my God!!

A piece of me just died!!!

[aevg1982]

In mexico does not exist taco bell

In mexico does not exist taco bell

In mexico does not exist taco bell

[Finko00]

So what?

[southcoocrecords]

Wow, I don't remember this comercial.

Really is a brilliant ad. Wonder how much cash Johnny was paid for this spot.

[BestAdsEver]

Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson both did Taco Bell commercials because of a mutual friend from Nashville named Neal Selman who wrote both spots and got them on board.  The spots are legendary in advertising.

[bronc30td]

Johnny Cash makes even Taco Bell commercials epic.

[marcjames86]

times must of been hard lol

[PunkMartyr]

Im stuck in folson prison and theres no nachos or bean burritos

When I hear that mariachi band I hang my head and cry

[agentofevolution1986]

Do a commercial and you are forever written off the artistic roll call.

Sorry John

[shattercross]

Yes, because it's totally up to you.

[rrdoran]

how original of you to quote bill hicks, but if you listened to the rest of that rant, he said "except willie nelson"

im certain bill would have made an exception for john too

[FriedEggsWithChips]

@rrdoran Johnny Cash was in adverts since he started, and during the seventies he was on everything. It doesn't bother me. But a fast food joint? Somehow that just rubs it in. :(

[inspiration4him1]

I like Willie Nelson's taco bell commercial better though :). Funny, they did get the two legends of country music.

[HelloFade2]

As far as Taco Bell today goes, well the food is still good but the commercials suck. I certainly miss that little chihuahua and i am so sick of the "Think outside the Bun" slogan.

[Spacialvekter]

Fuck, I work there and I still hate it.

[DCism]

They're bringing the classic menu back!! YEEESSSS!!!

[javery303]

Man, I told so many people Cash did Taco Bell commercials and no one believed me. Thank you, Youtube!

Also, Youtube gods, Johnny did a few other TB commercials. I remember one focused more on making "a run for the border" or something.

[Lifeofbass]

OMG, Johnny SO sold out his name there!

[RDarth]

Only JC could make such a bad song so good. Just like Chicken In Black.

[dngl21]

I can't find that Jack Palance Taco Bell commercial!

[RDarth]

I'm going to Taco Bell now because Johnny said so.

[FriedEggsWithChips]

@RDarth I'm going to remove my flowers from his grave.

[fluffydogconnoisseur]

i think johnny is drunk on pinto beans

[projectpair]

when i wrote best shit ever i meant i took the best shit ever after eating this shit

[FatSlobBob]

Johnny should be rolling over in his grave

[projectpair]

yeah, best shit ever!

[michaelmoval]

[singing] "I'm goin' to Jackson..."

[griefcomics]

Johnny Cash and Taco Bell are awesome on their own. But Together?! Double Awesome! Now all they need is Batman to join in!

[ohioguy4jc]

I'm making myself feel old today looking up all this stuff I remember from when I was a kid. This commercial was actually what introduced me to Johnny Cash so for that I am grateful.

[wildwoodflower16]

Wow, I'm glad I was too young to remember this.

[jroark17327]

you need to watch what you say man;im leaving it at that..

[me34250]

in most cases i would call this selling out, but to do a commerical for taco bell is a privilege. i'm sure as cash neared the end of his hard life, he looked back on this ad with more reverence than he had for the lord jesus christ himself. god bless johnny cash...god bless taco bell.

[MrHamilton]

thats so lame. I loved it!

[superheromike]

what a sell out and bad pun.

[spershall]

Hello, check!

[VideoWizard2006]

Hey... the bell on the cup is in TODAY'S colors. And you'll make a run for the border- or is it bathroom?

[Yeeslander]

Dang...I remember this one.

[JoeCamelCigg]

Awesome! I love Johnny Cash!

[The1CamBo]

"better make a border dash" what exactly is he trying to condone here?

[JoeCamelCigg]

I u listen u can hear him say " U can search the whole world over" He means u gonna cross the border to search for a better price!

[The1CamBo]

hey kid, I'm a computer

[nickspic]

u have got to be fucking kidding me... the1cambo is making a reference to the immigration epidemic.

[jaydubb2]

so, so sad

[walrusonion]

awesome, mini cash pwns

[fullmetal06415]

god bless you johnny cash

[comedylover88]

Awesome! RIP, Mr. Cash.
