Because the New Seekers were never a big hit in the USA, because of anti-British bias by Radio stations at the time, the Hit used and changed for this Coca-Cola ad was never ever heard, so most Americans know this as the Coke ad from Christmas, while internationally it was a major hit in its original form

makes you cry ? cous they told for whole life that you can be happy only for coke ,mcdonalds, kfc, starbucks,remeber always SANTA CLAUS IS RED COUS COCA COLA MADE HIM RED IN A ADVERTISMENT IN 1930 , SO EVERY TIME YOU THINK AT CHRISTMAS YOU THINK AT COLOUR RED, RED IS COCA COLA , THEY ONLY CONTROL OUR IMAGINATION, THAT S WHY PEOPLE LIKE YOU CRYN FOR A FUKIN STUPID ADVERTISMENT, SORRY ABOUT THAT ,BUT EVEN THE BELLS ARE FAKE
Love it. I remember it as a child. Always makes me kind of sad to see it. I sure miss the 70's and being a kid. Was a great time to grow up and a wonderful time to live. Kids really miss out today.
Back then we dreamed of a world where everybody could live in peace. Now all you have to do is read mean and nasty comments on You Tube to see that the morons outnumber us.
@Mrsare95 Hey, idiot, some of them were representing Native Americans and others were representing different nationalities. You know, "world" and "harmony"... get it? All different races and cultures, including the kid in the cowboy hat and the one in the athletic jersey.
These Coke ads were pure gold, featuring the wholesomeness of a much maligned age group and giving hope for the future. You missed all of that.
So.... the way to achieve racial harmony is to drink a lot of Coke? Or... Coke brings people from all creeds and faiths together to honor Baby Jesus? Me am confused.
@marco72 The first time I saw this commercial was in December 1970 when I was a sophomore in high school. It was so contemporary, so cool, so hip, Right On!. If my memory is correct, this commercial was used during the Christmas Season for several years afterwards. The last time I saw this commercial was in December 1996 and we all commented how "dated" it was.
the name "Coca-Cola" really is from dope. it was sold with dope in it. it still is. until 1930, people in the USA and Europe could by cocaine extract with no note from a "doctor". the USA is full of caffeine "dope machines" (the only water in many places) to make us nervous, so that people stay awake and spend more money. like tobacco, caffeine causes strokes, psychosis, and heart problems. "Coca-Cola" group alone has made trillions of dollars for sugar water. - james mcashan for US Senate
i have "long" hair, and i do not use dope (or pharmaceutical dope either). i studied natural foods and every industry for decades. i used all my time, with no pay, to inspect every part of Texas and Florida that i could get to. i put thousands of miles on bicycles, like an obsessed Forrest Gump with infrastructure assessment skills. i even inspected military installations. at 53 in 2010 i did 3000 miles inspecting polluted Mexico City valley, then had a stroke. - james mcashan for the US Senate
Many of us have grown up to be staunch Conservatives. We believed that there were people that needed help, we found that those were just lazy, bums who still sit and wait for handouts. or, they are now in the White House destroying our government. We meant well at the time and I would never trade the experience for anything. It made me the responsible adult I turned out to be.

I remember this commercial so well 'cause I was crushing on the guy in 0:28 with the "32" on his jersey. I was also jealous of his girlfriend too. It's been more than 30 years later, and I'm STILL crushing on the guy. My tastes have not changed that much :P
Back in 1983, we had to sing this in Kindergarten. It wasn't until youtube came along that I saw this commercial. Now I realise the teacher was an idiot ex-hippie.
Come to think of it, most hippies had this thing where they hated money and capitalism, but were incredibly greedy when it came to handouts. Then they became petulant adults. Kind of like the "hipsters" today. They're nasty.
Most teachers are idiots???? Clearly you have no idea what it takes to educate a child. i have always said and firmly believe if a student graduates with honours it is because her parents pushed her and raised the bar, but if a student fails it is because her teacher failed her. The sad reality is many parents have become the idiots and because they are simpletons, such as yourself, they would rather blame teachers to deflect the blame from their on shortcomings.
I remember seeing this commercial when I was little. I'm not sure, but I think they showed it every December for a few years running. Anyway, I can remember not getting at first that the singers weren't just arranged in a triangle, but they were arranged like a Xmas tree.
I winder what it would be like to see all these people now? At the time it was done, I would like to think they believed in what they were singing. However, it is this group that morphed into yuppies and attitudes changed. I wonder, since they seemingly believe in what they are singing in....if they got together today, would they be able to get that feeling back? I mean, here the world is represented. In the US, today, we cannot even find unity between neighbors, nevertheless between cultures!
This guys facebook has a video of the 1990 reunion song...That may be as close as we'll ever get, but I can't post the link in youtube,send me a message if you want it.
It freaks me out a little to think how COKE COLA got to me at such a young age. As a kid watching TV you leaned to hate commercials. But COKE made me luv this one....The Bastards!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this commercial! This is back when commercials meant something, when we could remember them! I catch myself singing this song 20-30 years after hearing it.
Non vorrei fare il vanitoso: il direttore di produzione di questo clip é il grande maestro Massimo Ferrara (morto nel 2003 R.I.P.), padre delle mie due sorelle Maristella e Katharina! Mari e Ciuncula siete nel mio cuore, credeteci che presto ci vedremo di nuovo dopo tanti anni all'estero. Massimo, ti voglio un mondo di bene!
I am amused by the number of people who see this company's use of harmonious social images for selling their product as a sign of true social justice.
Interesting factoid about this commercial. Five people were hospitalized with third degree burns when they apparently held the candles too close to their hair and face.
Never seen this one before - it's great. A simple idea, maybe Coca Cola should start showing these adverts again and perhaps people might learn to be tolerant towards each other again.
this commercial looks older than the other one all over youtube ,claiming original status. this must b the first & it involves all world, .impressive!
I remember seeing this commercial as a child around Christmas time. Thank you so much for bringing it back and letting us remember those better times!
I agree, it shows all the races singing together "In perfect Harmony".It was definitely a different time from what I remember but I was just in grade school, but can remember the songs well from back.
With the world in such a potential mess with the crisis in the middle east and the catastrophe in Germany....I wish this message of love would be incorporated into another Coca-Cola Commercial. We are one!
even if this was disturbing in 1970s. it was still good we had alot of people working at that time making money buying houses & cars we didn't have kids out of school like we have now . People conveniently forget stuff like Munich, Attica Prison, Watergate, the oil crisis, Charles Manson, and the FLQ. All stuff that happened around the time of this commercial and this is ture but, we had jobs we were working we didn't have time to think of all that America was in good shape in the 70s
@dicekpapi18 You missed a special time. But I guess life is what we made it. Still, I come back to things like this video just to remind me that there was a time when life was better than it is today..and the 70's were it.
@dicekpapi18 - It's always greener on the other side of the fence, or decade :) I am a film historian and for a good while, got so caught up in the glamour of the 30s - 50s, i thought i wanted to have been born then. But it wasn't a great time for women. Every time has its good and bad, and i think we;re all here exactly when we're supposed to be. And this way, we can just enjoy what we liked about those times, w/o having to live through the tough stuff :)
@sclock2 They said, "a coke", not, "coke", or, "some coke", or "Bolivian marching powder", or "nose candy". The distinction is clear; they want to rot your teeth out of your skull, not collapse your septum and cause your mucous glands to bleed profusely.
As a small child I was very impressed when this series of coke Commercials came on (there were several similar to this one) They were such a refreshing change from the usual "in your face" advertising of the time. Thanks Coke!
As a small child I was very impressed when thise series of coke Commercials came on (there were several similar to this one) They were such a refreshing chnage from the usual "in your face" advertising of the time. Thanks Coke!
It's kind of disturbing that people see this commercial as coming from 'better days'. How ignorant can you be of history? The 1970s (or any other decade) sucked just as much as today but for different reasons. People conveniently forget stuff like Munich, Attica Prison, Watergate, the oil crisis, Charles Manson, and the FLQ. All stuff that happened around the time of this commercial.
@Loodirros It's because people aren't looking at that time from the prospective of the world, they looking at their own youths. A time that, for THEM, was far more innocent. SHIT, I look at the late 70's and 80's that way, but in reality, it was the height of the cold war, there were tv specials on nuclear Armageddon, the beginning of the debt bubble, the soviet occupation of Afghanistan, Iran Iraq war, the CIA selling drugs, crack cocaine... But it was still my youth.
@Loodirros - you're one of those people who just doesn't want to be happy, or heaven forbid, let anyone else. This is escapism. Let the people escape for 3 minutes. It won't kill ya.
That would be nice, but you can't buy the world a Coke because some people don't drink soda, don't like soda, can't drink soda, are allergic to corn syrup, etc. etc. etc.
i was just 10 years' old when launching this commercial ad, but it really makes me feel like singing x'mas song in church with a group of people delivering message of " people harmony". This is the best ad for christmas all these years with message to deliver! not like x'mas ad nowadays purely to boost the sales.
better come up here to hear this x'mas song rather than watching boring TV at x'mas.
0:49 This just popped in my brain, Looks like a illuminati symbol would be crazy if Jesus was fake because ya know they are digging up people who lived over 3000 years ago, That dates back to millions of years. Anyway my point is would this not be a cool way to have you worship something you are not aware of?Would be crazy to think that only the people who knew truth would know that your just worshiping the free masons.
Merry Christmas for all humanhood from de city capital of the azteca´s empire la gran Tenochtitlan conocida vulgarmente como ciudad de méxico (el defectuoso)
To add another line from this song: "I'd like to see the world for once all standing hand in hand and hear an echo through the hills of peace throughout the land."
LOL, everytime I see a Coca Cola commercial I start to sing this song. Everyone older than me turns in surprise that I even know this song. Truth is, they seriously need to bring this jingle back.

I agree, it shows all the races singing together "In perfect Harmony".It was definitely a different time from what I remember but I was just in grade school, but can remember the songs well from back.

With the world in such a potential mess with the crisis in the middle east and the catastrophe in Germany....I wish this message of love would be incorporated into another Coca-Cola Commercial. We are one!

@mistrimeat It's for convenience. Why don't you yell at Stanley Kubrick for making us assume ancient Romans spoke perfect English in Spartacus.

even if this was disturbing in 1970s. it was still good we had alot of people working at that time making money buying houses & cars we didn't have kids out of school like we have now . People conveniently forget stuff like Munich, Attica Prison, Watergate, the oil crisis, Charles Manson, and the FLQ. All stuff that happened around the time of this commercial and this is ture but, we had jobs we were working we didn't have time to think of all that America was in good shape in the 70s

If i ever could have one real wish, it would be to have been born in 61 rather than 91, I would have loved to have lived through the 70s.
dicekpapi18 11 months ago
@dicekpapi18 You missed a special time. But I guess life is what we made it. Still, I come back to things like this video just to remind me that there was a time when life was better than it is today..and the 70's were it.

@dicekpapi18 - It's always greener on the other side of the fence, or decade :) I am a film historian and for a good while, got so caught up in the glamour of the 30s - 50s, i thought i wanted to have been born then. But it wasn't a great time for women. Every time has its good and bad, and i think we;re all here exactly when we're supposed to be. And this way, we can just enjoy what we liked about those times, w/o having to live through the tough stuff :)

They made a similar commercial to this a few years back with some kids singing on top of a building.

I think those hippies are referring to a different kind of coke.
sclock2 11 months ago 20
@sclock2 They said, "a coke", not, "coke", or, "some coke", or "Bolivian marching powder", or "nose candy". The distinction is clear; they want to rot your teeth out of your skull, not collapse your septum and cause your mucous glands to bleed profusely.

@sclock2 I think you're right. But the drugs of choice for hippies were pot & LSD.

As a small child I was very impressed when this series of coke Commercials came on (there were several similar to this one) They were such a refreshing change from the usual "in your face" advertising of the time. Thanks Coke!

It's kind of disturbing that people see this commercial as coming from 'better days'. How ignorant can you be of history? The 1970s (or any other decade) sucked just as much as today but for different reasons. People conveniently forget stuff like Munich, Attica Prison, Watergate, the oil crisis, Charles Manson, and the FLQ. All stuff that happened around the time of this commercial.

@Loodirros It's because people aren't looking at that time from the prospective of the world, they looking at their own youths. A time that, for THEM, was far more innocent. SHIT, I look at the late 70's and 80's that way, but in reality, it was the height of the cold war, there were tv specials on nuclear Armageddon, the beginning of the debt bubble, the soviet occupation of Afghanistan, Iran Iraq war, the CIA selling drugs, crack cocaine... But it was still my youth.

That would be nice, but you can't buy the world a Coke because some people don't drink soda, don't like soda, can't drink soda, are allergic to corn syrup, etc. etc. etc.

i was just 10 years' old when launching this commercial ad, but it really makes me feel like singing x'mas song in church with a group of people delivering message of " people harmony". This is the best ad for christmas all these years with message to deliver! not like x'mas ad nowadays purely to boost the sales.
better come up here to hear this x'mas song rather than watching boring TV at x'mas.

Why did Coke stop making these commercials? Its been how many years since the last one?

0:49 This just popped in my brain, Looks like a illuminati symbol would be crazy if Jesus was fake because ya know they are digging up people who lived over 3000 years ago, That dates back to millions of years. Anyway my point is would this not be a cool way to have you worship something you are not aware of?Would be crazy to think that only the people who knew truth would know that your just worshiping the free masons.

To add another line from this song: "I'd like to see the world for once all standing hand in hand and hear an echo through the hills of peace throughout the land."
MERRY CHRISTMAS.

LOL, everytime I see a Coca Cola commercial I start to sing this song. Everyone older than me turns in surprise that I even know this song. Truth is, they seriously need to bring this jingle back.
