Coke commercial features Special Olympics athletes

[nyjrule]

Gos bless these kids with disabilities. They go through so much and its just nice to see then getting rewarded gor it. And for those of u who make fun of them, go get a life bc im sure me and the 99% of people that support them could kick ur ass.

[msskool]

FUCK pepsi coke is way better

[AlliedWaste76]

i have to say that i hate coke with a passion but supporting that i give a thumbs up to the copmpany and i agree with anyone that fucks with handicaped people deserve to go into the trash and buried with the trash

[IndividualParties]

Dude, I can't beleive they exploit handicap people like this, I mean, making them compete against each other, just for our amusment.

[cowcamaro]

and to all of you who freak out about this commercial being "so important" just remember that straightedge is also better than you.

[TheMebeawesome]

@cowcamaro who are you cm punk?

[TheMebeawesome]

@cowcamaro

[TheMebeawesome]

@cowcamaro lolololololololololollolololol

[cantolope94]

SSSSSSIIIIIIIIAAAAAAA!!!!

[annmariemessier]

i am so glad coperate america realizes the potential of these athlethes, they do work and earn money and spend it.

[jb55101]

@annmariemessier yeah unlike some normal people that claim to be disabled just to get check and sit on there ass or use it for drugs.

[metamorabirds98]

:23 classic

[awsamo2000]

tbh the special Olympics should not exist there should be 1 I mean some of those special people are good enough to be in the Olympics

[shoes365]

siaaaaa<3

[IISH1FtYII]

well just remember maybe in a couple of years you might have a family and ur son or daughter is born with a disability and they go to school and get harassed what are you going to say to them when they are crying there eyes out cause lil johnny is calling him retarded? ill find ur lil punk ass. Im my brother armor and nothing will come between me and him. i love him i protect him. he makes me smile when im down he makes me laugh when tough times hit me.

[seacolt]

It's cool to see those people who are disabled in this video, getting the medal on the hard work they did to get it. I work with people who are disabled and this is a great video.

[BobnFrankrppl2]

definitely my favorite commercial for the Olympics because it has all the Olympics in it - para, special, summer, winter. i love it. and the song choice is interesting but its my favorite song. i knew I'd find this on youtube. ;]

[CaeliisaBEAST]

@BobnFrankrppl2 whats this song?

[ocelottiger]

its breath me by sia

[BobnFrankrppl2]

@CaeliisaBEAST breathe me by sia

[sledcatcher]

The song is "Breathe Me" by Sia.

A strange choice of song for a commercial meant to be inspiring- the piano at the beginning is pretty but the song lyrics are quite depressing!!

[bigshowdog34]

its my colorgaurd show music i think its rly pretty

[RonanV]

i want to know how to play this song on piano. anyone know the songs name?

[TsukasaElkKite]

This commercial makes me tear up every time. :')

[WalterMcSwartz]

eek this commercial gives me goosebumps, I'm glad they're recycling it for the winter Olympics.

[slynnef1219]

the song is Breathe Me by Sia

[blahblahblahblaho]

song anyone?? DDD:

[bittersweetmerex]

what song is this? D:

[Awesomein1987]

that is awesome truely brillant of coke wtg coke now i will drink ur soda.

[bongsalazar]

it sucks!!!!!!!!!!!

[ReggaeZal]

You losers laugh at the disabled people who take part in the special olympics, please learn this lesson well: They work just as hard as any olympian, they shed blood and tears as any other normal bodied athelete and you people are sitting at home, trolling around these people?

You cant even win against them in their own game, let alone a normal olympic.

[konfy]

you need to chill

[snowmanwilly]

coke and pepsi has made the world fat

[IAMAROCKSTAR33652]

dude thts the fast food places unless u drink a shit load of it u wont get fat only from tht

[Statusdub]

cant help but laff even though i feel sorry

[acientbowz]

in a split second anyone one of us could become desabled...mentaly of physically... be carefull who you make fun off!!!!!!

[JaredVeale]

xray you can't spell for shit. Go sign up.

[Animalabusesucks1990]

thats no reason for signing up. Everybody spells differently sometimes. u have to have another reason.

[Animalabusesucks1990]

and it was only one mistake. one mistake!

[MoultonProductions]

For all you idiots who make fun of the people who are disabled in any way that are in the special olympics,just know that the people that you're making fun of are better then you.

[John27346]

@MoultonProductions That's discrimination against people who think they are better than people who are special.

[d0cw4ts0n]

@MoultonProductions You do know that the word "idiot" was originally used to berate those with mental disabilities. Learn2grammar.

[MoultonProductions]

@d0cw4ts0n It was originally intended for that. But it is not anymore.

[dunisayno]

Happy 123rd Birthday Coca-Cola!

[xrayxl]

i love special olympics for ever I love special olympics as long as i live they are loving and helpfull they want the world to be love I love special olympics so much love nadine dambra

[ururururmoooooom]

[petercab]

breathe me by sia. Such a sweet and sad song worth the download

[haha34440]

Breath me- by Sia. Great artist

[seanarrative]

fantastic and powerful ad. and I love the drink too :)

[BlifeProductions]

sweeeeet!!!

[Kevinski35]

one of the best commericals ever

retards rock 8)

[carysamidaho]

Props to Coke! I've worked with elite athletes, NCAA All-Americans, kids in youth sports and Special Olympics athletes. They all train hard, dedicate themselves to their sport, strive to reach their goals and want to WIN! Yes, they are ALL athletes. And they exhibit more similarities than differences. Be a fan at 2009 Special Olympics World Winter Games in Idaho this February. Sam Sandmire, former head gymnastics coach, Boise State University

[WWERULEZ1213]

yes thay are

[Thundaeagle]

Let me finish my comment. I am involved in swimming and I train as hard if not harder than mainstream athletes. It is really worth it when you get recognized for doing something well in sport.

[Thrillmasta]

Those cute little bastards with their over sized heads and drool running down their chins.

[VitaB3rst]

Go kill yourself tonight please. Your sad attempt for attention is pathetic. You're not welcome in a society that already fully accepts and includes people with disability so either get with the times or exit this world

[MyrickMan23]

he says one thing and now his not welcome in society... thats what I call retarded

[Thrillmasta]

Tards are a waste of skin, taking up air and food that could be used by winos or other worthless people.

[Thundaeagle]

Well you are probally talking about yourself, the way you're mouthing off like that. If you have got nothing nice to say zip it!

[iloveleointhe90s]

I am SO assuming this is a joke. Either that, or you're stoned right now.

[Animalabusesucks1990]

believe or not some people don't like disabled people/special needs people.But i'm not sure if they meant it or what.

[bonsaibrian]

The sign of as man, is how he treats things that are less fortunate than himself.

[mgapenny]

The sign of a man, is how he treats "people" that are less fortunate than himself. I have a special needs son, and I am truely privledged to have such a wonderful, caring, loving human being in my life.

[Thrillmasta]

It is hillarious though to watch the tards jump up and down and act like they have done something special. Newsflash:  you're still tards!!

[bonsaibrian]

You fucking idoit. You have no life to be saying something so cowardly. Weak sauce. I'll dunk on your ass bitch.

[Thrillmasta]

How sweet. You must be "special." Are these your heros? The little tards winning races against other tards and then drooling all over themselves waiting for a medal? You are so precious. Good luck to you kiddo. If you work really hard for 20 years or so maybe someday you can aspire to order for yourself at McDonalds someday.

[Thundaeagle]

Oi, those words are so hurtful. How would you like it if you were discriminated against because you were considered "different"? Get a life!

[Thrillmasta]

Considered different?  When you drool all over yourself, have no control over your bodily functions, and need a 24/7 babysitter, you ARE different. A bullet to the head would be a mercy for these people.

[bonsaibrian]

Thrillmasta who are you to be saying such dumb shit? Were you beaten by a kid with Down Syn.???  Whats your deal?? I like the music to this song, thats why I'm here. I'll jump right over your ass and dunk leaving my nuts hanging in yo face.

[Thrillmasta]

No, but I once beat the shit of a tard. It was hilarious, he was screaming and crying. I beat him mercilessly for about 10 minutes then left him lying in a pool of his own blood. It's not like it was going to make him any dumber. . . .

[iloveleointhe90s]

HA. I doubt you could beat anyone up. You're probably overweight and depressed, someone with a disability could probably beat your ass, which isn't really saying much considering the fact that you're a total asshole who's going to rot in hell. Well, have a nice day :D

[oODeezNutzOo]

real mature. . .

[Animalabusesucks1990]

Ur are so lying.

[Thundaeagle]

You need to wake up! Those things are not true to every person with a "disabillity". You are a miserable bully.

[mgapenny]

The people in this video are good, loving people, who happen to have retarded development. They are not "retards"! Or "tards"!

[Thrillmasta]

Talk about your bittersweet victories. Even if you win the special olympics, you are still retarded.

[GaFootballFan]

Fuck You

[NeverPerfection]

whenever i see this, i get chills, and remember the olympics :D

btw, does anyone know the song in the background?

[viggodum]

Sia - Breathe Me

[AdioBitch]

:20 is probably where i started to cry a little. just the happiness on that kids face. fuckin awesome

[DefensorsPacis]

I got chills from this commercial.

Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

[AmberNicole024]

[KimchiEater1234]

You might never get a medal...but you can still find role models in those people.

[TacoBellRulez]

this commercial touches my heart

[catholicmouse]

i love this commercial

[underscorepeekay]

brilliant to see the superbly talented Adelaide (South AUstralia) girl SIA FURLER being used for this ad in the USA and also for the COLES ad in Australia during the Olympics - the track is Breathe Me - go and check the vid now > Sia, Breathe Me... love it...

[jwinston216]

the music was an edit of sia's recording, with the coke "5 tones" added by a musician, playing mellotron string and horn samples, at the post production house in chicago where the spot was edited and mixed.

[andybrannan]

the music is from'' Amber music'' a commercial music house ...based in NY and LA

[spazzzzzzzx]

breathe me by sia, such a great song, so glad they used it in the olympics...perfect commercial :)

[khxx11]

this commercial makes me all happy lol

[Happy2Bbored]

0:19, he looked so happy... :'(

[Chingster22]

the autistic guy at :20 was happier than anyone in this commercial. his expression was pure joy

[openflames]

down syndrome, not autistic...and yes, his joy is so beautifully contagious. i find it hard to watch this commercial without either crying or laughing by the end of it. :-)

[Thundaeagle]

Yeah but autistic people are also athletes.

[kaiakaea]

Who's the athlete that kisses his medal (0:22)?

[dkklwohl]

Kenny Harrison is his name.

[janimation]

team michelle kwan!

[waratah234]

What year and event was :17?

[pharris03]

I don't know what year, but it looks like the horse jump. the three men look like jockeys

[WildwingSuz]

They're from the US Equestrian Team.

[jmerkno]

Is this Sia's music, "Breathe ME? It sounds so dramatic and strong, can it be?

[waratah234]

yes it's "breathe" by sia

[smoothlicious]

who's the athlete at 0:12?

[JohnnyBananas69]

Michelle Kwan

[jamiefish13]

The song is I am ready for love by the Counting Crows. It was in Cruel Intentions, so you may recognize it from there.

[jamiefish13]

I was wrong. It is Breathe Me by Sia. The Counting Crows song is very similar sounding though. Both are good.

[jmerkno]

It does sounds like Breathe on me but so strong and powerful. can it really be? I love it.

[waratah234]

oops "breathe me" haha

[stereopathic]

effing amazing.

[dispatchlover]

so great and i know someone in the video!!

[dotsbear]

LOVE THIS COMMERCIAL!!!! I wish it would play more during broadcast of the Olympics.

[cvusoccer]

Wonderful commercial

[candyslice]

Beautiful commercial. Simply beautiful.

[thedeadpoint]

The Olympics and the Special Olympics! Two of my FAVORITE organizations/events!!!!

[berg4250]

It's "Breathe Me" by Sia and is available on iTunes

[thedarkprincedm]

Thank you!!!!!!!

[Miah151]

This song is also on a commercial for the movie Brideshead Revisited. If you know the name and artist please let me know it is killing me!

[beegirllw]

Yay Michelle Kwan and Michael Matz together in the same commercial with Sia, Breathe Me as the background music...perfect.

[xdombillyx]

It has taken me like 3 hours to figure out the right words to get this to come up. I didn't know that the special olympics were involved with this too. Great song.

[juicyjamie7]

aw thats really touching

[bowlingchick77]

Breathe Me- Sia.

[throughasound]

what is the song in this?
