Cotton - The Fabric of Our Lives ad from 1992

[RoseTheSongstress]

I remember seeing the cotton commercials growing up! Ahh nostalgia :) But um... that issue at :20 never got resolved! Everyone else was enjoying the fabric of their lives. But not the kids in the fight? What's up with that? Lol.

I can't believe a song like this is just about cotton. So many memories come rushing back, just by seeing and hearing this. Thank you...

[FoundationForLawandG]

Thanks for posting this. This takes me back to a time when our family was still together and I had no worries - other than keeping my grades up. Those were the days...

[WETNWILD85]

This was beautiful,but there's another version of this song that I've always liked better,and I've been trying 2 find it on youtube 4ever. I 4got what year it came out, late 90's,I think,but a woman was singing it,and it was so perfect.

I LOVE this commercial when I was a kid watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. When I first heard it, I thought the verse was, "The touch. The feel of happy." Even though that's not it, it felt very touching.

[colormemichael]

i remember seeing this commercial too as a kid

the last time i think i saw it was like 1995

[OnTheRun167]

This is the only time you'll see a black man singing about cotton.

[6780863]

This particular cotton commercial is by far the most moving commercial ever. It kind of makes you happy and sad/tearful at the same time. I LOVE IT!

[HeraldMB]

Even though it was just talking about cotton, something about these ads always moved me ::sniff:: :)

[Pedro4life09]

great commercial. cotton should make their commercials more like this. I read on wikipedia that this commercial debeued on tv for the 1992 winter olympics and then it was shown again for the 1994 winter olympics on cbs was that the only time they were shown on tv or were they shown everywhere on tv ?

[Wushu17]

Aaron Neville is the Shiznit!

[Maxfli82]

These were classic commercials. Miss them.

[allstar248]

I MISS THE OLD SCHOOL COTTON COMMERCIALS! Idk why, but the song always used to make me all teary-eyed as a kid.

[cynthiailly]

Yeah, for some reason when I was a kid the song would make me feel like crying too. Love these commercials!

[mymayapapaya]
