Mello Yello ad - 1983

[cymagen]

The vending machine at my apartments has a secret...it says Vault on the button , but if you push that button, it dispenses mello yello...I hadn't ever heard of it before that accident but damn I love the design on these cans and it is so delicious!!! Mmmmm

[mayorcool]

@cymagen That wasn't an accident. Coke replaced Vault with Mello Yello, and the guy who fills your vending machine either forgot or didn't bother to change the product tag on the outside of the vendor.

[cymagen]

Hahaha

[Imeldadavies1]

And the bitch doesnt burp....brilliant I was a kid and wanted ro by that crap.

Funny I never got the idea she was sucking cock with the bottle till much later.

[65kowalski]

Is Mello Yello in Australia as nearly clear as it seems on this commercial? In the states, its chartreuse green, just like Mountain Dew. . . . . .The lady in this ad is SMOKING hot! Wow!

[lumabi25]

@65kowalski The colour in the commercial might be off slightly but in any case I can't remember. Mello Yello hasn't been seen in Australia for years. I vaguely remember it as a teenager but it disappeared sometime in the 80s.

[65kowalski]

@lumabi25 Really? Thanks. I'm surprised it's still available in the States.

[pinball1974]

The labels on the bottle rotates between shots so that you can read the product name as she drinks it.

[grapisavillain]

this hasn't been on the australian market for a good 20 years at least

[hill9868]

BBBBUUURRRRRPPPPP! Excuse me, I've gotta go pee.

[Blackparrot41]

i just can't stop watching this.

[700gsteak]

Solo > kirks lemonade > mountain dew > lift/mello yellow >7up

[brazilman14]

@xXXthefirefliesXXx nope I love mello yello 2 nd favorite beverage the best being coke

[nerdflanders8710]

[SenhorBundy]

Bring it back!

Especially since I can't drink Mountain Dew anymore.

[muzzster1970]

Alex Wileman was freakin' HOT in her day!

[xXXthefirefliesXXx]

am i the only 1 drinking a mello yello right now?

[pyrofella]

A blonde that swallows!...... yeah

[123cty]

the guys are wondering now how much dick she can swallow

[Metals999]

Mello Yello stopped being sold here by about 1990. Dr Pepper was stocked for about a year before it got sent packing also !

[Sheri451]

They had a similar commercial here in America too. Mello Yello is made by Coca Cola here.We still have it here.

[Ipodtouchrulesthewor]

MELLO YELLO IS AWESOME

[superbengal]

is that Geoff Rhoe from the movie Puberty Blues at 0:14?

[AnthemPage]

I have another mello yello video again ! ! ! :)

[andrew34430]

the girl is alex wileman who was popular on australian televison at the time

[eric0100]

Yum!!!!

[dchizzle09]

who's that chick?



[Sodeggy]

She will drink Mello Yellos until the end of the world; her belch will summon the demons of hell and everyone will have a diabetes party.

[Astraeos13]

She's just knocking 'em back like there's no tomorrow. Isn't she, girls. Exemplary!

[JohnFordDanceTroupe]

The original SMOOTH.

[Cha4k]

I was digging a hole in a swamp at my dads place and an old can of this bubbled up.

[Davez621]

Mello Yello was great. I remember going to the movies at Hoyts Chadstone (Flight of the Navigator) in the late 80s, and they had Mello Yello. It was phased out very shortly after.

[mediajunkie2007]

@Davez621 mello yello is still sold in the states its like mountain dew

[Davez621]

@mediajunkie2007 Here in Australia it was replaced by Lift, around 1990 or so.

[elc1960]

Bet that chick can burp like a frat boy. Probably can recite the alphabet in one of her burps too.

[jbates0536]

Noooooooo mello yello bigger and biggest in south east Kentucky hell yeah mother fuckers nuttin can beat the great ol meller yeller.better than mouton dew and from what I know and I've been drinking this since 98 don't give ya kidney stones and I've been drinking this my whole life. Meller better. Fuck the dew!

[whitepuppy12]

I love mello yello

[MsAries68]

Jenny Morris actually did the vocals for this song, the girl in the ad was lip-synching.

[sparrow1222]

@waluigithecool Its available all over Southern Vermont and Western Massachusetts

[ShottyAtIlluminati]

Watch out hips, letting you know where that fat is gonna go straight to.

[MmeDesgranges]

Go Alex!

[mubd1234]

The label dynamically changes from upright when she holds the bottle to upside down when she drinks!

[JoeyJoeJoe5000]

Mello Yello is WAAAAAAY better than Mountain Dew!

[minglemonkey]

@JoeyJoeJoe5000 Why would you lie like that??

[F4WBootCamp]

If she doesn't back off on those, that body isn't going to age well. Better switch to "diet", honey.

I'm just sayin'...... ;p

[mounthorse100]

miranda cogroves was in a yello mello comercial when she was 3

[mounthorse100]

miranda cosgroves was in a yello mello comercial when she was 3

[jakeinglis1]

[lozzarattiii]

Rick O'BRIEN Mellow Yellow Go Ricky Boy!

[grizzchaw69]

[Muztang77]

haha nice

[dbenincasa77]

its a mello yello orgy!!!

[jaydub73]

I remember seeing this when I was a kid - brings back memories!

[iPinoyBaller]

I only see Mello Yello's at Chuck E. Cheese's now..

[spencababy911]

She's wasted.

[Proflutzn]

the comercial is a lot more funny if u knew that a name for ACID is Mellow Yellow

[DA90027]

Watch out twat...watch out clit....I'm doucing with mello yello and it will clean my split.

[HalfEatenDimSim]

DRINK MY PISS

[marshalljimduncan]

I wish I could find me some sundrop!

[hintamaginsa12]

Mello Yello still on sale?

[crazy4262]

@hintamaginsa12 yeah its everywhere

[jorologo]

Does anybody notice how the Mello Yellow label on the bottle changes position while The Shiela drinks it. Also" watch out thirst watch out hips" . She must mean watch your hips grow with all the sugar calorie high kilojoules you take in. No one in those days gave a stuff avbout what sugar intake does. But then again Nutri sweet corodes your stomach lining to give you ulcerations.

[GerryIsNear]

The name Mello Yello makes it sound like urine.

[roscominmiboi]

it was LEED LEMOND SQUAS then MELLO YELLOW and now its LIFT i worked @ cocoa cola bottlers in newcastle :)

[catlover28]

Mellow Yellow, or rather Lift is nice with Vodka

[catlover28]

Um, slut?

[ThatZanKid]

@catlover28 hahahaha. thats my mates mum!

[tvujasin]

Mello Yello did become Lift

[Boltneck77]

Dodgy '80s ads...errr yuk!

[mexxie70]

Can't believe people with looks like that still do stuff that is so low

[ohohashley]

damn, chug it.

[holdensedan]

It isn't thirst quenching. She had to drink two!

[meringandan]

When does she Burp.

[mangaka08]

@meringandan She doesn't. That was her stunt-double you saw.

[boazandjiacinth]

for sisterjanet4, um, it kinda tastes salty, but its full of vitamins and good for your skin..

[sliat1981]

nice tits. i have a boner

[sisterjanet4]

I never drank this stuff. What did it taste like??

[itsbecca09]

by memory it tastes like lift i think.

[Muffinrider]

Solo

[sintasm]

@sisterjanet4 Yellow = Lemon

[captainreview17]

pure amazingness i just got done drinking stuff imagine a less carbonated citrus drink thats mello yello

[GitarStu]

Didn't Mello Yello become Lift when Coca Cola bought it?

[bahamut6667]

naa it became mountain dew then mellow yellow again a bought 2 years ago

[bloggaloggs]

@GitarStu It was always a Coco-Cola product. They relaunched it as Lift in the 1990s as the Mello Yello brand was irrepairably '70s in vibe, and just could not compete against Schweppes Solo.

[GitarStu]

@bloggaloggs Ah, interesting. For some reason I though Mello Yello wasn't a Coke product. I remember Mello Yello tasting pretty ordinary - like fizzy cheap cordial. I can see why Lift out sold it. Although I prefer Kirks Pub Squash over any of them.

[venuecam]

WTF. Is that Hank Azaria at 0:10? I know it's an Aussie ad but goddam he's a doppelganger.

[Skoobypoo]

what's the name of the babe?

[sirbargearse]

Alex Wileman. She later went on to host Cartoon Connection and then Lotto results... go figure.

[mattyp1999]

genius. love the bikini & stubbies

[9letmeseeit]

Would have been funny if it showed her stomach all bloated after sculling that bottle! hehehe

[Nathela1]

oh wow thats bad lol.

[shade231]

that didn't look like mello yello

[shadstershadster]

If it's yellow, let it mellow.

If it's brown, flush it down!

[sacrednic]

ROFL... thanks for that insight Phil :)

[sbpaj]

@shadstershadster hahahahahaha

[itastylez]

@shadstershadster if its yellow, let it mellow. if its brown, drink it down! :p

[bigkellyr]

I've seen better bodies but I wouldn't kick her out of bed for drinking Mello-Yello.

[whiskey01]

she'd look better sucking opn some 80's cock

[mgo26]

Agreed.

[chitchatkat]

haha your right

[polarbear3333333333]

Mello Yellow rocks

[GEELONG04]

At the 19 second mark of the clip.....Is that Steven Jacobs of channel 9 fame?

[snosborne01]

nah it's neil mitchell. i work with him. he a 52yo fitter and machinist now. lol

[buldgingballs]

I just wish she said "look out mouth, watch out balls" then kicked one of those dorky guys right in the groin.

[AusAsia]

That's the Australian version of Mello Yello. She's an Aussie.

[origin8]

This was definately played in NZ - didnt even know aussies had mello yello. Didnt last long in NZ anyway.

[skyhook75]

The voice you hear singing this ad is actually Jenny Morris!!!!

[richard1963c]

OMG it is too!

[dadgenius]

Seeing her drinking it that way....

[johnknight1981]

they still sell mellow yellow in the south states

[BoneforBeethoven]

they do in the northern states also...but not the same color can.

[Conniptions886]

She also did a Sunsilk shampoo ad in 1982; I just uploaded it...

[germanicelt]

Funny, I always remember her as wearing a yellow bikini when i saw this ad alot at 11 years old.

[deadeyes00]

South of the equator Mello Yellow is clear, and the model's eyes are artificially colored green.

Huh.

[Conniptions886]

No, that's the actual colour of her eyes!

[arazta]

that chick is Alex Wilde!!!!

the old lotto girl!!!! and .. Cartoon connection on channel 7 in the mornings!!!

she gets around the old hussy!!!

[tellasmella]

omg i was 2 years old but i do remember the song lol

[blau18]

Am I going crazy or does the label on the neck of the bottle keep changing orientation?

Great stuff

[splatwacker]

mello yellow? is this european

[mubd1234]

Australian...

[KwongyBoy]

Hey mahlstadt the SO GOOD SO FAST is saying it makes you feel good really fast, not that it makes you run fast. And the chick is the one that use to do the Lotto draw until recently. LOL. Bring back the Mellow Yellow!

[tech9803]

Gawd, this ad is cheesy. What's up with the chick's neo-beehive hair.

[DJFarchnaught]

Uh, dude. It was the '80s. Don't dis Mello Yello.

[mahlstadt]

MELLO YELLOW

MAKES YOU FEEL

SO GOOD

SO FAST

this ad confused me as a 5 year-old. how could the drink make you run faster?

[shfbdfi1273]

I like mello yello but it looks like pee.

[buldgingballs]

Haven't seen this ad for 20 years. Funny I always remembered her to be in a yellow bikini. She's so sexy. I imagined her to say "watch out balls" and then kicked one of those guys right in the groin!

[ChowsaTV]

she skulls more than that drink

[NocturnalCutie]

Mello Yello makes you feel so good so fast. From your head down to your toes!!!!

[shanesthief]

The Guy in this video 0:12 looks like a young hank azaria who does the voice in the simpsons

don't know if it's him or not.

[yastepdaddy]

ther is no guy at 0:12

[shanesthief]

what do you mean there is no guy at 0:12 seconds into this mello yello ad pause the ad at 0:12 seconds and have a look. LOL

[kisa154]

this is the best soda in the world!!!!!!!!!! <3333

(mello fangirl X3)

EEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *fangirl scream*

[acehighpat]

Ha, they copied us...right down to the jingle lol

[dabble778]

That's before The Lotto dumped Alex from their weekly draws. I miss Mello Yello.

[mookiedoi]

i totaly need some Mello Yellow now..

to make me feel so good so fast... Mello Yellow

[pelepollo]

It's sold in australia as the drink "Solo" now. "low on fizz so u can slam it down fast"

[peecee1384]

Wrong pelepollo... Solo was around way before mello yello, since 1973 in fact

[perkinspaste]

True. Mello Yello was made by Coke. Solo isn't. Solo and Mello Yello aren't the same. They had the Solo Man.

[bloggaloggs]

Nah-uh. Solo is made by Schweppes, and has always been the market leader in this country for lemon squash -a rare defeat for Coca Cola. Because Mello Yello had a irreparably dated '70s aesthetic, Coke gave up, abandoned it and launched Lift much later. It fared better, but Solo is still the king.

[urinemonster]

I was in NZ in March for a holiday and they had brought back Mellow Yellow as a "limited edition". I bought a bottle, drank it and all that sugar made my teeth hurt. God how I miss it! Well that and Leed Lemonade and Tab, but don't get me started.

[yastepdaddy]

yeah and its the same color as ure name lmaooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooo

[walls703]

Nothing turns me on more than a 80's new zealand chick drinking mello yelllo...lol

[GrubcoTV]

Nice miming.

[brettshears]

Look out mouth look out hips, if you drank too much of that stuff you would have to watch your hips, that stuff ROCKED.

[KyraPixie]

so smoooooth

[TigerCrazy73]

she did lotto draws after this!!

[iziahiscool]

i think that is is sold in the mid south i think below maryland

[greatmazinger72]

i remember drinking mello yello in the philippines back in 1983,the bottle i think was green. and i bought a vintage mello yello tshirt from ebay recently.

[iainm5]

does anyone know where i can find this drink? when i was younger i used to drink it alot and i havnt seen it since besides when i went to florida.

[plasteringtony]

its been reintroduced here in nz , limited tho so i gues there just testing out the market.. fantastic drink!!

[walls703]

Here in Tennessee, it has never gone away.

[chiz1611]

I like her hair style

[Seagrove1976]

She won't keep her figure by downing several Mello Yellos in a row.

[Chickengirl005]

wow i didn't know that drink was that old.. i guess it didn't come to the US until later...

[GwnythsPal]

Cool! Have been searching all the Auusie adds for the past 30mins trying to find this one.

Could not remember what the rink was..knew it was lemon..thought it might be SPRITE.

[lurchteacher]

too much will go to your hips.

[BigBlueBeast]

Man! I haven't seen a mello yello commecial since 1983!!!

[TheAtraxRobustus]

thats cos its an AUSSIE add,not north american.

[ContrastY]

never heard of this drink, but it does look revolting!

[iainm5]

i wish they still had it in canada. it tasted so good.

[TheAtraxRobustus]

oh my goodness! i used to watch her in cartoon connection!!

[ttab99]

so did i

[rusav81]

oh my god - lost in the eighties

[sydneygayboi]

omg!!!!!!!! its alex wileman ..hahahahaha

[schlickaz]

I always wonder if the singers feel ridiculous singing lame jingles like it's a concert performance.

[camc23]

As a child the brightly coloured logo and bottles always caught my eye.

[Bassimastprime]

tight rhymes.

[leopatra3]

Its funny how they hold the cans so everyone can see the Label altouth it looks weird...

[schlickaz]

yeah - like the way actors handle chewing gum on commercials - so delicate on the fingertips instead of just chucking it in the palm of the hand and throwing it back into the gob as normal people do.

[adelguy67]

rofl that was excellent

[crunchiegerbil]

Alex Wileman swallows ! Alex Wileman swallows !

[phillbo33]

I can remember this as clear as a bell - So I thought. I was sure I could see Mello Yellow dribble down the side of her face. She would have also made a fine BigM girl for that era of Television.

[julianltebay]

I remember her on Cartoon Connection, Alex your tops... shes been hot for 25 years and still is. I say bring back 'Mello Yellow" and bring back Alex Wileman to the telly and her blonde body wave(dump those boring Home World ads) your better than that.

[rambosambo]

They've brought back Mello Yellow (complete with original label) in New Zealand, dunno why, but they did.

[plasteringtony]

cos its a good drink i guess :)

[schlickaz]

nah it tasted like puke - thats why it died

[plasteringtony]

personal preference i guess... obviously popular why its being reintroduced again.....
